Kids Class

This post provides background and teaching context for the Premium video Kids Class, featuring Master Joliette Trân and her approach to teaching children Taekwon-Do in a structured, values-based environment. The session highlights how technical training and the philosophy of Taekwon-Do can be woven naturally into a kids Taekwon-Do class.

One of Master Trân’s recognised strengths as an instructor is her ability to teach the tenets and philosophy of Taekwon-Do as part of normal class activity, rather than treating them as separate or abstract concepts. Throughout the lesson, she regularly draws attention to moments where the children are displaying courtesy, perseverance, self-control, and respect.

This approach helps reinforce positive behaviour while keeping the class engaging and age-appropriate. Instead of long explanations, short reminders are used to connect actions on the floor with the values behind them, making the philosophy of Taekwon-Do meaningful for young students.

Toward the end of the class, Master Trân asks the children a simple but thought-provoking question. Their responses provide insight into how they view their training and themselves, revealing qualities such as honesty, empathy, and confidence that are being developed through regular Taekwon-Do practice.

For instructors teaching children, this session offers practical ideas on how to run a kids Taekwon-Do class that balances discipline, enjoyment, and personal development. It is particularly valuable for those looking to integrate Taekwon-Do philosophy into children’s classes in a natural and effective way.
