Call 845-224-3741 Building Strong Bodies and Clear Minds We train our students to the best of their ability. Some students come to us in shape, while others have come to us 100 pounds overweight! Most come to us with limited flexibility. Adults start at any age. We have had some adults who started as late as 65, and still earned their Black Belts! As a student, you are looked upon as an individual, never compared to anyone else. Our instructors will be there every step of the way. All that is expected of you is a willingness to try. Fitness/Health The principals of Taekwondo techniques are based on the design of your body. For power you develop the larger, powerful muscles of the torso. The speed of the techniques comes from the fast, agile muscles of the arms and legs. As you progress in Taekwondo, you will learn to coordinate this speed and power. You will learn to focus all of your body's strength into a small, hard striking surface like the edge of your hand or the heel of the foot. In addition, a Taekwondo class will provide you with a vigorous workout that will develop both your strength and stamina. Many Adults find Taekwondo to be the perfect outlet to release all of the stresses and frustrations that can build up every day! Self-defense When the speed and power developed through Taekwondo is used in a self-defense situation against the soft vulnerable parts of an attackers body, the results can be incredible. Taekwondo allows a woman to emphasize many of her natural physical strengths, such as power in the legs, while learning a method of self-defense efficient against a much larger opponent. Knowing you can defend yourself, your confidence will grow. And confidence alone is usually enough to deter potential attackers! Confidence/Self-esteem Confidence does not come naturally to many people, but can be developed over a period of time. Through Taekwondo, as you accomplish new goals, your confidence level increases. Many adults recognize the importance of positive reinforcement in developing confidence in children, but seldom experience it in their own lives. Unfortunately, many adults can go many days, sometimes even months without being recognized for their achievements. Our program is built upon positive reinforcement in all of our programs. Everyone thrives on praise- including you!
