Our classes are structured according to rank and age so that instruction addresses skill level and maturity. Class size is limited to ensure a good instructor/student ratio. Is Taekwondo right for you? (FAQs) Students join Taekwondo for different reasons, and our programs take this into account. For children, our curriculum emphasizes a "positive mental attitude" and "goal setting". Parents typically enroll their children in our program to develop leadership skills, instill discipline, and to involve their kids in an activity that is both fun and challenging. Teens and adults, on the other hand, often join Taekwondo for physical fitness, coordination, self-defense, and technical martial art skills. All programs promote a lifetime learning concept. We understand that martial arts can be intimidating, but all it takes is the willingness to try. Each class is meant to push your boundaries, but in a positive and progressive manner. 4980 Kipling St. Unit A1 (Map) Wheat Ridge, CO 80033 Call (720) 898-0708 A Brief History of the ATA In 1968, Korean General Hong Hi Choi (the man responsible for originally standardizing Taekwondo in 1955) taught then Master Haeng Ung Lee the first 16 Cheon-jee forms of Taekwondo.
