About KLS Taekwondo in Marshfield, MA
Taekwondo is an ancient martial art that has been around for centuries. The word “taekwondo” is a combination of the Korean words “tae” (kicking techniques), “kwon” (hand techniques) and “do” (discipline and the right way). As such, it is a complete martial art that emphasizes both physical and mental development. Today, millions of people around the world are learning taekwondo for a variety of reasons. Not only does it teach discipline and self-defense, but it also helps to improve flexibility, power, and mental strength. Additionally, taekwondo teaches its practitioners the taekwondo tenets of courtesy, integrity, self-control, perseverance, and indomitable spirit. Taekwondo has become so popular that it is now an Olympic event and many colleges in the United States offer it as part of their curriculum.

Programs at KLS Taekwondo in Marshfield, MA
BeAKid
Children Ages 41/2 - 8 years old
In this class, students start out learning the basics, getting comfortable in a class environment with other children, learning how to focus on the instructor and getting to know the movements of their body. Each class starts with a warmup to get the muscles loose, moves on to techniques in a group and individual setting, then ends with a fun game that also conditions them. Although all belts are in the class, each belt works on techniques specific to that belt requirement. Classes are 45 minutes to adapt to a younger child's attention span.

Children Ages 8 and older
This class has a mixture of students just starting out and those who have been in the younger class but are now old enough to move up. The instruction in this class gets more detailed. Not only do students learn how to do the techniques but now they learn the break-down of the movements and the why behind it. There is also more of an emphasis on conditioning and getting the body ready for black belt training. While the students are expected to be serious throughout class, we still have a fun game at the end! Although all belts are in the class, each belt works on techniques specific to that belt requirement. Classes are 55 minutes long.
