Taekwondo is often compared to Karate because of the kicks and some similar hand movements. Taekwondo is very different in that 70% of our fighting is done with the legs and 30% with our hands. Most kick boxers have had training in Taekwondo, where they have learned many different types of jump kicks with several twists and turns.

Age 4 is good age for children to begin their Taekwondo training. At this age especially, children have A LOT of energy, and enjoy jumping and kicking movements. It's often been said that Taekwondo was made for children: to focus their energies, to learn self-discipline and respect for themselves and others, and to have FUN!
