Tae Kwon Do

World Karate has taught Tae Kwon Do in Fairfax County for decades.

It is a system that is never static as we will adapt to update and improve our teaching methods and techniques. At World Karate, we have martial arts programs for the entire family, whether it be a child, teenager or an adult looking for a different approach to achieving a high level of fitness.

For Children

Tae Kwon Do Martial Arts remain one the best After School Martial Arts activities a child in Fairfax County can be involved. The benefits of Tae Kwon Do are numerous ranging from increased confidence, increased level of fitness, improved focus and increased self defense ability making them a less likely target of an aggressor. Children learn to focus better which helps them perform better at school. The positive environment is a good balance to the many negative influences your child will deal with on a regular basis. Children learn how to set and achieve goals and learn the true meaning of discipline.
Our students are taught the importance of respecting authority and are taught in a positive but very structured way. They are held accountable and actually crave the disciplined atmosphere they train in. Each child gains a great deal of confidence because Tae Kwon Do has a unique built in reward system for a job well done. When a child attends a minimum amount of classes, when they have trained for the required time between belts and when they show a level of competence with the techniques they must learn, belt progression is earned.

For Adult

Tae Kwon Do is a great way for the active adult in Fairfax County to keep in shape. It has become an opinion recently that many of the martial arts are activities for kids. Nothing could be further from the truth. Tae Kwon Do, as taught by World Karate serving Fairfax County, is an excellent way for an adult to reach a high level of fitness while alleviating the boredom that comes with normal exercise routines. Adults increase cardiovascular endurance, burn maximum calories in short periods of time and alleviate stress caused by everyday routines. They improve muscle tone, increase flexibility and also gain the important benefit of increased self defense ability.

Research will show that people involved in martial arts programs will have a much higher usage rate then people involved in gym memberships. They are in fact, almost diametrically opposed as 85-90 percent of our Tae Kwon Do students use the facility on a regular basis as opposed to the 85 percent of people who have gym memberships who DO NOT attend on a regular basis. The numbers do not lie, what can you lose by trying?
