DOES YOUR TEENAGER NEED HELP BECOMING THEIR BEST SELVES?
Teenagers are smart and capable – but they can also be their own worst enemies. Between peer pressure, their innate urge to rebel against their parents, and their surging hormones, they can be impossible to be around. But all they need is an outlet for their frustrations – and an opportunity to learn how to be their best.

HELP IN ONE OF THESE AREAS?
They make hasty, poorly-considered decisions and need to have better judgment.
They’re being bullied at school – or they’re the one doing the bullying. They don’t get enough exercise or need to lose weight.
They have low self-esteem and seem to be down all the time. They give up when things get difficult and fail to meet their goals.
RAISING A TEENAGER REQUIRES PERSISTENCE & PATIENCE
It can test your sanity even at the best of times. Yet, you want the best for your teenager. You want them to have the tools they need to succeed now and later in life – and you’d like that to happen without having to pull out all your hair in the process. Getting them to do anything you want them to do can feel utterly impossible, and you’re not sure where to start.
Studying martial arts helps kids learn how to overcome their problems and learn important lessons – the kind of lessons that will follow them to your home, to the classroom, and for the rest of their lives.
YOUR TEEN WILL GROW WITH EVERY CLASS!
Teenagers who study martial arts learn the benefits of self-control and discipline with every lesson. Our classes emphasize core values like discipline, respect, and persistence. Students learn that the way they treat others – in and out of the dojo – reflects on them as people and affects their ability to achieve their goals.
LEARN THE VALUE OF RESPECTING THEMSELVES & OTHERS
Teens sometimes seem to be all attitude and no respect – in fact, it can seem like they go out of the way to respect all authority figures.
In our martial arts school, respect is a core discipline. Students must treat their instructor and fellow students with respect at all times.
Ultimately, teens who study martial arts learn that when they respect themselves, others will respect them, too.
JUDGMENT IS AN ESSENTIAL SKILL IN MARTIAL ARTS
Whether they’re in a martial arts class or in a competition, the difference between a good performance and a poor one often comes down to judgment.
Students learn how to make judgments on the fly using the information they have on hand in conjunction with their training.
They also learn how to differentiate between good instincts and bad ones – and to use that information to make judgments.
GET YOUR KIDS OFF THE COUCH AND INTO MARTIAL ARTS
It might seem like your teenager would happily spend all day sitting on the couch playing video games or posting on social media.
The electronics epidemic might be a good thing in many ways, but teenagers still need physical activity to stay fit and healthy.
Martial arts classes provide teens with challenging workouts in a fun, social setting that rivals any video game.
HOW TO SET (AND ACHIEVE) GOALS
Teens sometimes seem not to care about setting goals either in the short-term or the long-term.
The study of martial arts requires them to pursue goals on a regular basis. Each skill they learn, and each belt they earn, represents a goal that they have achieved.
Goal-setting in this way provides teens with the tools they need to set achievable goals in school, at home, and in life.

First off, I would like you to know Taekwondo Works is a 5 plus, there is no doubt in my mind of that. I feel it is truly a privilege to have my children to be able to participate in this program for after-school and summer camp.
I have three boys that have all attended Taekwondo Works for the last few years and it was the best decision I have ever made for my children. I did a lot of research and read the bios of the instructors on their website prior to enrolling them and everything they say they will do for your child is the truth. They all are nationally ranked instructors and have the credentials needed to ensure our children get what they need physically and mentally. My children’s doctors always say “you are so strong and all muscle” what do you do? The response is always first I do taekwondo, wrestle and run a mile every day. The doctor is like WOW, says keep up what you are doing, eat what you are eating and keep that smile. A boost of confidence for sure.

We love taking our son here!! He has been working on his belt ranks for the past 2 years. It takes time and consistency, not just getting the children to black belt as soon as possible. Every child is different and they take their time to make sure they achieve their goals at their speed. The staff is fantastic, friendly and truly take care of the kids. This place is so much more than “just Taekwando” they have after school daycare program! Oh and they even have classes for 40+!

I love the patience and dedication that is given to the students here. I have seen such a big difference in my son’s confidence, as well as skills in only a months time. You can really tell the owner and instructors love what they do when they are teaching their classes. I would recommend this place to anyone!!!

Cannot recommend this highly enough. They are committed to helping each child in their own unique way. They are throughly invested in teaching each child how to succeed and become confident. They also teach their older and more advanced students that it is now their turn to help the younger students. Could not ask for a more amazing studio or people to entrust our children to!
