A Family The Kicks Together, Sticks Together
Family / All Ages Program
As life gets busier every day, our family classes help to keep families together and connected.
Do You Want to Develop a Strong Unbreakable Bond
Between You and Your Family?
Suitable for ages 5 and up to adult, these classes teach the full Choi Kwang Do curriculum in a safe, family-friendly environment. This session enables all members of the family to train, have fun and learn together at the one time while reaping the benefits of better health and physical fitness.
The CKD curriculum is safe for young, developing bodies, yet physically challenging for adults while giving all age groups essential, easy to learn self-defence skills.
One of my favorite parenting quotes is that “more is caught, than taught”- meaning that your children will learn much more about health, fitness, discipline, and focus if they see you doing it alongside them, not just telling them about it.
Although you CAN take classes with your children, many adults choose to blow off steam with our teen and adult programs!

Respect & Self-Confidence
Teamwork & Social Skills
Social interaction teaches kids how to effectively work as part of a team.
Physical Fitness
Martial arts helps improve coordination and is an excellent form of exercise.
Build Healthy Habits
Building healthy habits early on can help prevent obesity and diabetes later in life.
Learn Goal-Setting Skills
Belt testing provides an excellent exercise for kids in learning how to set and achieve goals. Their self-esteem will continue to rise with each accomplishment as they watch their hard work pay off.
Improve Focus and Self-Control
Complex physical activities such as martial arts have proven to strengthen the brain’s neural networks, helping kids improve their focus and self-control. This can be especially beneficial for kids with ADD/ADHD.
A Strong Sense of Respect
The traditional nature of martial arts teaches kids respect in their classes, whether they are taking a bow or waiting patiently for the next set of instructions. This sense of respect also helps kids improve their grades, while improving their listening skills at home and in school.
