Frequently Asked Questions!

Is my child ready for this kind of activity?
There really is only one way to find out, just bring them along and speak to he instructor if you have any concerns. There may be occasions when a child just doesn't seem ready for it, if this applies to your child, that doesn't mean they will never be ready for it. Simply bring them back within an agreed time (usually a few months), and you could be surprised with the difference.
There are 7 belts to achieve before they leave Tan'Gun Tigers and graduate to Tan'Gun Dragons as part of the main syllabus with Tan'Gun Taekwondo 

How many children can attend before the class is 'Full'?
Typically, there are around 15 children to 1 teacher. There are exceptions to this, but that is the general norm.

How long are the classes?
Classes are 30 minutes in length.

That's not enough time to do anything, how can you teach them anything?
30 minutes is the optimum time for this age group. We can teach your child so much in this time, often a surprising amount. From experience any longer than this and children can become quite tired or unresponsive.

Will my child learn to fight?  
In short, no. Your child is still very young, and in many respects unable to differentiate between fighting and play. At Tan'Gun Tigers we teach them important life skills and touch on moral values. Punching, Kicking & Blocking are taught, but nothing is ever confrontational. We do it in a fun way as that is the most productive way a child learns.

Hey,I'm completely satisfied and want to give it a go.
