Excellent workout for our teen/adult program (great program for the parents of our junior students).

Resilient Kids (and teens and adults)

Do we as parents want kids to give up and feel helpless after a set back, or do we want them to be able to bounce back and keep moving forward in life?

Resiliency and the ability to persevere doesn't just happen or come naturally.
It needs to be modelled and taught.

If we step in to prevent or fix every problem our kids could encounter, we may feel that we are protecting them, but they lose the opportunity to develop their resiliency "muscles."

Allowing challenges to occur, and then encouraging them through the process of facing and overcoming that challenge prepares them for a future where we parents aren't there every minute to fix every problem for them.

Resilient kids do better in school, in friendships, at home, in future jobs, and more.

At Hilliard Taekwondo Academy we're helping kids (and teens and adults) develop the resiliency they need to face life's challenges, while backing that up with exceptional martial arts skills.

Kids & Perseverance!

Kids who learn to persevere;
✅see opportunities rather than failure
✅are happier & more resilient
✅become more confident
✅achieve their goals

Perseverance doesn't just happen.

Kids (and teens & adults) need positive role models, coaches, parents to encourage & guide them through the challenging moments that are a natural part of every sport, activity, friendship, job, etc.

That's why, at Hilliard Taekwondo Academy we balance:
⭐praise with appropriate consequences
⭐fun & yet age-appropriate skill challenges
⭐individual goals within group activities

Best Defense Against Bullying!

Amazing Bully Self Defense Buddy Day classes yesterday! ⭐

Friends had a chance to experience a brief slice of how we're building confidence & skill in all our students in all our classes every day. 💪

Five classes of helping students (kids, teens & adults) & their friends practice:
✅Looking more confident & less like an easy target
✅Best Responses to verbal bullying
✅How to surprise the bully & get away from a grab
✅Blocking & punching back if it's the only way to stop a physical attack

Staying safe around strangers (and people we may not think of as strangers) was how we wrapped up each of yesterday's self defense classes.
