Junior Classes

Our junior program is suitable for children between 4 to 15 years old.

Classes are fun challenging and goal-oriented. This is a comprehensive and intuitive program that introduces children to the fundamentals of Taekwondo and its practical application to self-defense.

Martial arts training are more than kicking and punching and earning belts. New Plymouth Taekwondo try to reinforce discipline, build confidence and teach children to maintain a positive attitude and achieve their goals.

The session commences with a full class warm up, followed by defining Taekwondo basic skills.  Children will then experience learning Poomsae (Traditional patterns), sparring basics, and will be introduces to a number of taekwondo skills.

Each class will be lead by a head instructor who is supported and assisted by other senior black belts. The head instructor will break the class into smaller groups (generally according to belt and age) to help provide children with individualized attention.

Our aim is that, your child’s first exposure to martial arts training will generate positive results beyond the training hall.
