Self-confidence:
After a few months of training at Modern Taekwondo Center (MTC), parents begin to notice their child carrying themselves differently and with more confidence. The child's self-assuredness empowers them to stand up to adversity and to use their voice when conflict arises. This confidence, of course, spills over to their school work and extracurricular activities and they begin to excel in all areas. Self-Discipline:
MTC parents also notice an improvement in behavior at home. Our ability to link rank promotion to how they are doing in the classroom and at home really helps reinforce certain habits. Exercise:
MTC parents notice that their child starts forming a habit of moving and becoming more physically active, taking pride in their training. The MTC programs improve their balance, coordination, and timing. Not to mention the improvement in speed, stamina, and strength. Leadership:
After a year of training, the student starts to develop certain leadership qualities. Our rank system encourages students to take more of a leadership role within their respective groups. They play this role and fulfill this responsibility all the way to the rank of black belt. Some of our more advanced students, who have been with us for 5+ years are now demonstrating these leadership qualities in a team we call STORM (Special Team Of Role Models). Focus:
We say that focus is the ability to block out distractions and this is what we test in the students every class. At MTC, the parents are allowed to watch the classes that are in session, filling the space with a lot of distractions. The burden is on the instructors to keep the students engaged and for the students to practice their focus. A formula that has been working well! Quality Instruction:
MTC instructors are passionate about Taekwondo and have been competing and teaching for most of their lives. Master Fredson Gomes, Master Chris Tuozzolo, and Master Amy Maillet have all been training for 24 years. The instructors are all certified by the World Taekwondo Federation and members of the USA Taekwondo association. The instructors are patient and enthusiastic with a strong focus on providing each student with personal attention. Modern Taekwondo Center: Confidence. Building Champions for Life.
