HOW IS THE TIGERS PROGRAMME DIFFERENT FROM OTHER NEW WAVE TAEKWONDO TRAINING PROGRAMMES?

Our mainstream Taekwondo Programme consists of 11 belts from White to Black Belt. The Tigers programme recognises that younger children can find it difficult to grasp some skills all at once. 

Therefore, the syllabus for the first three belts, from our mainstream programme, is broken down into small ‘bite sized’ chunks, making it easier for younger children to grasp. Regular assessments, with rewards (certificates and belt tags) help to motivate and encourage younger students as well as chart progress on the course. 

HOWEVER, THE MAIN EMPHASIS ON ON FUN BASED LEARNING, WITH LOTS OF ENCOURAGEMENT AND CONFIDENCE BUILDING.

Older Tigers students are provided with regular taster sessions in our mainstream classes.  Student centred, it allows them to develop confidence and chose when its time to train with the big kids.
