why Tae kwon do?

Tae Kwon Do offers a unique combination of physical, mental, and practical benefits that set it apart from other forms of martial arts. Known for its emphasis on powerful, dynamic kicking techniques, Tae Kwon Do not only improves flexibility, balance, and leg strength but also provides a full-body workout. Its structured approach to belt promotions fosters discipline, goal-setting, and a sense of achievement. Tae Kwon Do is an excellent choice for both fitness and self-defense. Additionally, its global popularity and inclusion in the Olympics ensures that students and practitioners have access to a well-established community and opportunities for competition, making it an ideal choice for people of all ages and skill levels.

    Our son joined D'Sousa Martial Arts when he was 3 years old, as a Little Ninja. 7 years and many belt promotions later and he is still loving his taekwondo! I recommend Ms. Charlotte and D'Souza Martial Arts to everyone!
