Kids  5 - 9 years old  &  Junior 10 - 13 years old Taekwondo


It’s safe to say that you want to provide the best for your child. As a parent, it’s your job to play to your child’s strengths while working to bolster the weaker traits. We want to help! How would you like to…

Kick up her self-esteem!
Target his concentration skills!
Knock out discipline problems!

….Want to learn more?…

At Tehonica's Taekwondo & Hapkido Academy , we teach MUCH MORE than kicks and punches! We use Tae Kwon Do as a fun, exciting way to teach values like self-control, respect, and dedication. The students have an awesome time while making great strides forward! The loads of fun and progress that our students have create an imperative “side effect”: the children clearly see that the values we teach are both important and attainable. Because of this, it is safe to say that there is NO sport or pastime better at preparing your child for life’s twists and turns than Tae Kwon Do.

As we mentioned, self-control is one of the primary values that we teach. One part of self-control that we emphasize strongly is that students should NEVER use what they learn in our school on friends, brothers and sisters, parents, or schoolmates. In fact, students who enroll in our school tend to show lower levels of aggression over time. We stand very firm on that point: students of Tehonica's Taekwondo 7 hapkido Academy are NOT, and will NOT become, bullies! So, Mom or Dad, you can feel secure about what your child will and won’t do with the Tae Kwon Do he or she learns.

As a parent, you’re probably interested in how we structure our programs. Tehonica's Taekwondo & Hapkido Academy has three distinct, age-specific children’s programs: 5 and 9 year olds,  Junior Program :10 - 13 years. These programs are separate, each with its own curriculum and goals appropriate for the students’ developmental levels. However, we took care and planning to the next level by ensuring that these programs progress easily from one to the next. We want it to be as easy as possible for students to transition from program to program as they grow, because this maximizes their overall progress… and we strongly believe in setting kids up for SUCCESS!

There are lots of successes for children to experience, from small steps to huge accomplishments. Which successes would you like your child to achieve? Do certain traits need to be improved so that your son or daughter can reach his or her maximum potential? “Tehonica's Taekwondo & Hapkido Academy at a GLANCE” outlines just some of the amazing improvements Tae Kwon Do classes, will develop in your child, as well as how and why Tae Kwon Do generates these results consistently!

Have you begun to see why Martial Arts have so often been called “the best thing parents can do for their children”? Think about the specific ways your child could benefit from what we offer… How is his discipline? How is her confidence? Could they use better focus or coordination? Contact us TODAY to claim your your "special trial offer " "Introductory Program" to discover more about what we can do for you and your child!

ARM YOUR CHILD WITH SELF ESTEEM...!!! And give your child a head start in life…!!!

Is your child armed to succeed in life?

To do well in school?

To stay clear of drugs?

To develop physically and mentally to maximize their unique potential?

Children (5-9 yrs) who attend Tehonica's Taekwondo & Hapkido Academy are destined to succeed in life because we teach them about goals, self esteem, discipline and persistence at an early age. More importantly, the traits children learn in our unique program will pay off for the rest of their lives!

Dear Parent
Every parent wants the best for their child, but how do you prepare them for all the challenges that they face in today’s world? Who helps you teach them the motivation, discipline and proper attitude necessary for success? It’s not an easy task because the help is not found in our schools, soccer, basketball or little league fields. Even our community organizations are having difficulty at this most important task. At Tehonica's Taekwondo & Hapkido Academy we are prepared and willing to help because teaching children the basic traits like goal setting, motivation and self esteem, at a young age, can have a massive impact on what that child accomplishes later life.

For over the 28 years I have seen thousands of children benefit from our unique program.

Overweight kids who lost a few pounds through self discipline and exercise only to gain massive amounts of self esteem and confidence.

Smart kids, bored with school, who learned to set goals and reach higher.

“Wild kids” who learned how to focus and channel their energy in a more positive direction.

And shy children who were brought out of their shell.

All these children and the thousands of others who have experienced our program have gained a foundation in the basic tools of success that will last them a lifetime. Much as learning to ride a bike or learning to swim, once the skills of success and achievement are introduced to your children they never go away. The pay off just keeps on going for the rest of their lives.

At Tehonica's Taekwondo & Hapkido Academy our unique curriculum of self development, fitness and fun will teach your child all the key traits necessary to succeed in life. While the more traditional aspects of martial arts such as self defense are certainly important in today’s world, perhaps the most important aspect of our curriculum is not so much the physical part, but the mental one. We feel that our strongest responsibility is to empower your children with the confidence, persistence and self discipline to succeed in school, in sports and more importantly in life.

Our program will give your child all the key traits of success and happiness including:

Self esteem and confidence to raise a hand in school and ask questions so they learn more.

A positive attitude and the persistence to succeed. It gets them saying “I Can” rather than “I Can’t” when dealing with a new problem or challenge.

We excite children about the pursuit of knowledge in school and teach them the master skill of success, setting goals.

We help your child develop physically. Our program increases speed, stamina, and strength in children. They will also develop balance, coordination and timing, all of which increases performance in many other physical activities.

To top it all off we teach leadership skills such as motivation and focus, key ingredients for success in anything including getting good grades in school and beyond.

And while I wish it were not even a factor, the fact remains that we live in a world where violence against children, child abductions and other dangers exist. At Tehonica's Taekwondo & Hapkido Academy we teach children how to spot and avoid these dangers and if necessary, how to protect themselves. This invaluable skill will not only increase their confidence in themselves but, may even save their lives.

Best of all, your child will have fun while they learn.

Tehonica's Taekwondo & Hapkido Academy is the only place that offers these keys to success in such a comprehensive, fun and exciting environment! Our carefully structured curriculum will help your child develop physically, mentally and socially. Because your children will be surrounded by others with similar goals and aspirations, they will develop positive friendships and healthy peer groups.

Since many parents are not familiar with the many benefits we provide, we would like to make a very special offer….. $19.95 (includes uniform & 1 week of classes)
Register today and take advantage of this special internet offer or pick up the phone and call us now at (315) 408 - 3640. We will be happy to answer any additional questions you might have and schedule your child’s first free class.

Thank you for taking the time to read this valuable information and I look forward to meeting you in person at the school soon.

Yours Sincerely,
Grandmaster Thomas Tehonica,
