Focused on pre-school martial artists, this program focuses on developing listening skills, balance and coordination, and cognitive development.
Elementary school-age students will be placed in our Juniors Program. This program focuses on life skills, anti-bullying, and self-discipline.
As a parent, you want your child can participate in activities that are safe, fun, and educational. Tiger Rock Martial Arts’ taekwondo classes for kids meet these criteria—and then some!
With programs designed for pre-school and elementary school students, our kids taekwondo programs are tailored towards the physical and cognitive development of your child’s age group.
Our Tiger-Cubs and Junior Programs will teach your child essential life skills such as respect and courtesy towards others, self-control, a positive attitude, and perseverance. These skills will help improve your child’s focus, discipline, behavior, and
social skills.
Our youngest martial artists are placed in our Tiger-Cubs program. This program is designed for 4- and 5-year-old students. In these 30 minute classes, Tiger-Cub students will participate in martial arts and child development exercises.
We designed our lessons to be geared towards helping students develop physical balance and coordination. In addition, our instructors teach students how to follow directions, improve their listening skills, and instill discipline.
Many of the lessons your child will learn on the mat will translate well off of it. Tiger Rock parents tell us often that they have seen a noticeable improvement in behavior and self-discipline after their child starts taking classes at our academies.
The Tiger Rock Juniors Program is for students 6 to 10 years old. It is typically our largest program and the starting point for many of our long term taekwondo students. Designed to complement elementary school education, this after school activity help students stay active, healthy, and engaged.
This program incorporates traditional martial arts instruction of kicking, striking, and evasion. However, we don’t stop there. We incorporate real-world self-defense, stranger awareness, and anti-bullying lessons that will help your child protect themselves against strangers and/or bullies.
Moreover, we encourage personal responsibility, honor, integrity, and good citizenship. In fact, as your child advances in training, they may qualify to join our Honors Program designed for students that exemplify these qualities. Plus, we have an academic accountability program to encourage good behavior and good grades in the classroom.
Safe Environment The number one concern at our martial arts academy here in Franklin is safety. We want the children of Franklin to feel safe and welcome at Tiger Rock. We carefully design each lesson and demonstrate each move and/or exercise with safety in mind.
Certified Instructors While taekwondo is an established martial arts tradition of over 70 years, Tiger Rock works extensively to ensure that our instructors are up-to-date with the latest training methods. That’s why all of our Instructors are required to participate in continuing education and renew their certification annually.
Student-Focused Membership Unlike other martial arts academies or even gyms, we put the student first. That’s why you never have to worry about long-term contracts and as a Tiger Rock member, your child can take lessons at any of our locations across the country—great if you’re out of town and visiting family!
