It is a discipline that emphasizes respect and important human values, such as courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control and fighting spirit, called by Taekwondoists “indomitable spirit”. Through exercises and games, children develop their attention and concentration skills.

Students will learn basic foot and fist techniques and how to identify the elements that enable them to recognize danger and react appropriately. To practice and perfect their techniques, the first fights will take place but without contact.
