Did you know martial arts is the secret to crushing all of your goals?

It sounds slightly ludicrous to claim that martial arts alone can change your life in such a drastic way that it is the complete solution to achieving any of your goals. While you may be correct in some capacity (martial arts is not a guaranteed fix to goal setting and achievement), martial arts will teach and sharpen some skills needed to be the type of person who sets goals and reaches them (or kicks them in the face). It’s safe to say that pretty much everyone agrees that

Want to try Martial Arts but Anxious About Trying Something New?

We hear this SO often from many people both kids and adults. They see it on tv, pass by a school, have wanted to do it since they were a little kid, or are a parent trying to get their child into a good activity. Whatever the case may be: people have a general interest in doing martial arts but sometimes struggle to take that first step into trying a class. Why? Maybe you are afraid of new activities, nervous about doing things in front of people, don‘t care for competition,

3 Ways Taekwondo Improves Confidence

1. The knowledge that you can defend yourself if need be is incredibly empowering. For children, this kind of confidence tends to keep bullies away which is comforting. For adults, knowing that you have the ability to protect yourself can put your mind at ease and give a sense of confidence like no other. 2. Ranking up in taekwondo provides a sense of accomplishment. How could you not feel more confident whe you are setting a goal and achieving it? You will! Taekwondo provide

The Best "Spring" Sport

You could do a typical spring sport such as soccer, softball, or golf, but why would you want to do something only for one season? If you really love an activity, why not do it all year long? And if you really love the benefits of exercise, then you would want them all the time, not just for a couple of months...right? So the ideal solution is to find a sport/activity that goes on during all of the seasons! What is one of those sports? Martial Arts! (I know: shocker!) The ben

How Martial Arts has Shaped the Way I View New Years Resolutions

2021 is now here! I think we can all agree that we weren't particularly upset to see 2020 go. With a new year comes new opportunities along with new challenges and of course, the inevitable new years resolutions. Everyone makes them (or at least some version of them) because we all have dreams, goals, and ambitions. Hopefully 2020 didn't stomp those out of you yet. As a martial artist, I can say that this sport has permanently changed the way I view new years resolutions or g

Top 4 Reasons Martial Arts is Better Than Other Sports

Before you start emailing in your rebuttals, hear me out. I'm not saying that other sports aren't great or fun or even beneficial. I believe all of those things as someone who spent a good chunk of their childhood shopping around for what fit me best. All I'm saying is that martial arts provides some advantages over the average seasonal sport. 1) Martial Arts never stops. It's a year around thing. It's not an activity where you are training for only a couple of months to not

Halloween Safety

If you've been on any form of social media lately you probably have seen a video with someone dancing to a song that goes something like this: "Spooky, scary, skeleton. Sends shivers down my spine..." or something along those lines. No? Allow me to glue this song into your brain for the next 72 hours. (Shoutout to our amazing instructor, Ms. Gabby for learning this dance) Anyways...sure skeletons are spooky and scary, but you know what is even more frightening? How unsafe the

Martial Arts Teaches Self Control

Our Children's Program (ages 6-12) is probably our largest program. We are so grateful to be able to teach children in our community the skills they need to be successful in life! Self Control Let's be honest...all of our self control could be better, but when it comes to kids, this skill needs to be learned and cultivated for many reasons. Here are just a few: Self control helps in school (learning how to stay on task and get our work done even when we don't want to) Self C

Tenet Series: Integrity

Integrity is the second tenet of taekwondo and is defined as the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles; moral uprightness. Tenets of taekwondo are the foundational life skills we teach and encourage our students to live by both on and off our mats. While actively practicing martial arts, we ask our students to show integrity by always giving 100% effort. We also ask they apply moral uprightness while engaging with other students or instructors. While off

Tenet Series: Courtesy

The tenets of Taekwondo are the foundational life skills of Taekwondo that are taught throughout the journey to a black belt. The first tenet of Taekwondo is courtesy. The dictionary defines courtesy as "the showing of politeness in one's attitude and behavior toward others." Another way we word this in classes is by teaching "respect." This is arguably the number one thing we teach in martial arts. We enforce mutual respect among not only parent-child but also student-teache

Taekwondo vs. Ju Jitsu

There are tons of different martial arts styles out there. (That's right! There is more to the martial arts world than just karate!) Here is a break down of two common types of martial arts. Maybe it will help you decide which is better for you, or maybe it will convince you to do both. Let's start by taking a basic look at Taekwondo. Taekwondo is a martial art that originated in Korea.

Why moms like martial arts for their kids

I think we can all agree that the saying "Mother knows best" is true. Moms love having their kids in martial arts for multiple reasons: respect, confidence, focus, fitness, friendships, and more. Don't just take it from me; hear from some of our amazing moms of students: "I love taekwondo for my son because I am confident that he can defend himself. My 4-year-old son has been coming to SMA for about 8 months. Just a month ago, he was hit by a 10-year-old, and my son immediate

How can Martial Arts help manage anger?

Okay, let's start off this post with a common reality: We all get angry, irritated, and downright peeved. We are all human after all. In some cases, anger management can turn into a severe issue with random outbursts or uncontrollable response. In these cases, someone could get seriously injured and it can be detrimental to physical and mental health. With this commonality we all share comes another, we need a healthy way to manage when we have those rough irritable days. (an
