The Little Dragons Program
is geared for children between the ages of 4 and 7. this program
teaches the younger children the discipline and self-control that Tang
Soo Do promotes in a fun and interesting way, which keeps their
attention and keeps them interested.
They are taught many of the basic techniques throughout the class, and
learn many practical things like self-defense, etc... They play games
throughout the class that help improve coordination, speed,
balance and thinking on-the-go. The classes are taught in
a very positive way with lots of high-fives, and the children always
leave feeling as though they have accomplished something.
The program is a great confidence
builder, and it also helps improve the child's self-esteem,
self-control, self-discipline and concentration. It
promotes the development of a positive attitude in a way that is fun and
enjoyable.
At the end of every class, Mstr. DiPietro
goes over the "Word of the Week" with the Little Dragons. Here they
discuss concepts, ideas and values that are important to anyone
practicing the martial arts. They apply these things, like loyalty,
honesty, humility, concentration, positive
attitude and goals, to situations that they face at home,
school and Karate!
