About Us
First Taekwondo offer classes in Taekwondo, self-defense and fitness. It is our experience that parents are seeking structured activities for their children to participate in after school and on the weekends. Taekwondo offers a physical release for the children as well as teaches them discipline and respect, which parents can’t find in many other extra-curricular activities.
For the adults, Taekwondo is excellent exercise and a stress reliever. It also brings some peace of mind to women in particular in this violent world we live in, teaching them self-defense and assuredness that they can protect themselves.
First Taekwondo has arranged special programs targeted to the individuals’ age and/or training needs. In order for each student to have the best experience, specific programs will be offered throughout the week.
