Why Rhee Taekwondo for school children?
Self-confidence
It doesn’t come naturally for many children, but rather is developed over a period of time. As a child accomplishes new goals, his or her confidence level increases. Children become more self-confident in Rhee Taekwondo because they progress individually at their own pace, and are not judged against others.
Self-defence
Children’s self-defence takes many forms. Rhee Taekwondo teaches children to think instead of panic in potentially serious situations as well as how to react to threats from other children.
