Programs

We have several programs for a variety of purposes, ranging from basic martial arts, to self- defence, to esteem and life skills building, and more. Over the years, the WTTU/ATA has come to realize that there are many reasons for studying Songahm Taekwondo, and we have worked hard to develop programs that will help realize these goals rather than forcing our students into one, linear area of study and practice.  Songahm Taekwondo itself is always evolving, and as such, we will always develop new programs and update our existing programs to ensure our students have as much access to the different aspects of Songahm Taekwondo as possible.

Some of the benefits you can expect from training in Taekwondo:

• Self-Defense
• Fitness
• Stress Reduction &

Tiny Tigers

In addition to our internationally recognized KARATE for KIDS program, we offer the Taekwondo for TINY TIGERS program. The Tiny Tiger program was developed specifically for preschool age children ages 3 through 6. This program offers children a strong foundation in essential character qualities such as courtesy, respect, and discipline. In addition, the program is designed to improve children's motor skills and enhance their ability to pay attention and follow directions. All classes are taught using the most safe, fun, and exciting instruction methods available for this age group. This program works in conjunction with the Karate for Kids program, thereby emphasizing the same important monthly themes and value system.

Adult & Teen Classes

Adults and Teens train to the best of their ability. Some students come to us in shape, while others have come to us 100 pounds overweight. Most come to us with limited flexibility. Adults start at any age, as we have had some adults who started as late as age 65, and have still earned their black belts. As a student, you are looked upon as an individual, never compared to anyone else. Our instructors will be there every step of the way to help you set and achieve your goals. All that is expected of you is a willingness to try.

Family Classes

This class is for the whole family regardless of belt rank. We recognize the fact that parents come to watch their children’s classes and it can be difficult for parents to be able to schedule extra time to be able to attend their own classes. Many parents join as white belts after their children have earned higher ranks and the children enjoy helping their parents learn what they have already learned.

Cardio Kickboxing

This class is one of the hottest fitness activities today! Cardio Kickboxing blends the rapid paced hand techniques of boxing with the powerful kicking techniques of Taekwondo. Cardio Kickboxing takes the music, excitement and energy of an aerobics class, but also gives you training in self-defense techniques. Every class provides you with a full body workout including calisthenics, kickboxing and stretching.

The highly motivating classes are an excellent source of fitness for men and women. Benefits include:

• Burn up to 800 calories per hour
• Toned muscles
• Reduce fat
• Increase flexibility
• Learn the techniques of self-defense
• Release stress

Our students tell us that they have never been in such good shape and they’ve never had so much fun getting there.

Classes are for adults only, you wear regular workout clothes, and there’s no experience necessary.Even if you don’t work out now, you can start now and work at your own pace.

Leadership & Instructor

The program has two levels of participation, leadership and instructor training. We realize that not everyone can make the commitment to becoming an instructor but everyone can benefit from leadership training. Whichever you choose, you will be taking a giant step to becoming your best.

Leadership

Build leadership skills that are applicable to all areas of life; at home, school, work, martial arts school, and everywhere. Leaders are developed through a comprehensive leadership curriculum, advanced martial arts training, and personal development.

Instructor

Leaders may apply to participate in the Instructor Training Course. If accepted, trainees will train toward becoming an WTTU/ATA Instructor. In-House training will provide trainees with all the necessary courses and preparation to become a Certified WTTU/ATA Instructor..

Master Club

The Master Club is additional training for the dedicated Taekwondo student. These exciting workouts offer training in Protech weapons, sparring, and much more. This component is taught as an additional part of regular classes. Participation will not only make you a better martial artist but will also prepare you for the courses taught at the Black Belt level.

A Master Club patch is worn on the left sleeve of the student's uniform and is a constant reminder of his/her goal--2nd degree BLACK BELT and Beyond!
