Every couple of weeks the instructor demonstrates a variety of different tricks and flashing kicks that inspired her so much she wanted to do more. She may not kick as high as some of other kids though but it is a great workout and it helps keep her flexible and active. It’s incredibly fun to watch her working hard and develop plenty of skills and abilities through taekwondo. Her smiling face at the end of each lesson tells the story. It has been a wonderful inspiration to her, as she carries this self-esteem with her through any activity she is doing in school.
It is an amazing martial art that my daughter truly appreciates a lot. Taekwondo has taught her mental discipline and perseverance. It is an awesome sport and I support it as being part of the school curriculum as it benefits her and other kids in numerous ways.
Thanks to Ma'am Joyce, for being an all around awesome instructor of teamwork, and for teaching and guiding her students to perform their ultimate best.

ReplyDeleteHi Mariuca,
ReplyDeleteyes, you're my FC for this post. :) i'll hop over to your blog to get your badge in a short while.
exactly, Mariuca. Learning self-defense helps you feel safe and confident in today’s society.
ReplyDeletechin weng,
ReplyDeleteit's never too late to learn taekwondo. i think any age at which you are motivated to start is a good age.
I think it's good to learn taekwando. Although I do not really have the interest to learn it! haha!
ReplyDeleteBtw, do drop by my blog and join in the Guess This Song contest : )
Good for your daughter.:)
ReplyDeleteI used to take Taekwondo lessons, but sadly stopped after school. :(
Now I'm trying to influence my son to take up martial art lessons but both him & Zaini don't seem to have interest in them. Maybe in future. :)
it is a good effort your daughter have. its always cool to learn a little defense especially for girls. :)
ReplyDeleteMost forms of martial arts instill discipline in the practitioner. I'm sure your daughter will appreciate it in the long-term :)
ReplyDeletefoong,
ReplyDeletelearning to kick ass sure plain feels good. hehe but I've no specific interest in this activity.
lina,
ReplyDeleteat least you know some basic self defense. it's actually hard to convince ppl to show interest in Taekwondo. perhaps, you can encourage zaini and raimi to watch some demos and hopefully it will inspire them to join the club.
levian,
ReplyDeleteit's definitely better than bare hands.
It would be nice to live in a world with no crime, but the truth is, crime exists, and physical and sexual assault does happen.
JL,
ReplyDeleteit is a good exercise for children who are still growing as well as a good way for adults to increase their physical endurance. but i know how to talk only. hehehe
apart from learning self defense, can have fun joining the tournament also. :)
ReplyDeleteI loved going places to enter Taekwondo tournaments when I was in school. :) Good to develop competitive spirit and keep healthy too!
My son learnt Ninjado for a year until school work got too heavy. It was a great skill to have.
ReplyDeleteHi, its very good your daughter learning this.
ReplyDeleteApart from it being good exercise, as well learning self discipline, she will be able to take care of herself.
Yes, motivate her go for the black belt.
Best regards, Lee.
I dream of having a black belter kids. I'm an enthusiast with Taekwondo or any other martial arts. It gives a good body workout and of course self-defense. Knowing basics is better than nothing at all. I did taekwondo too! =D
ReplyDeleteGoodluck on your girl and don't be so worried mommy when she gets injured or bruised up at times.
it's definitely good for her... best of all, she is learning self-defense!!
ReplyDeletelina,
ReplyDeletei bet it was a fun experience and i believe it also serves as a good opening statement about the purpose. :)
ECL,
ReplyDeletegood for your son. I think it's a great experience to go through some self defense classes.
thanks for your wonderful words of encouragement, Lee.
ReplyDeleteAyie,
ReplyDeletei'm not a fan of any martial arts but my daughter likes it. I don't have the stomach to see people punching and kicking each other till blood comes out.
i just hope that girls wouldn't be at each other's hair!
monica,
ReplyDeleteyeah, it's good for health purposes too.
Taekwando is a good sport... not that I have learned before though. I tried to bring my daughter to badminton sessions, but she doesn't seem to show any interest. :)
ReplyDeleteThe good thing is martial arts teaches discipline and gives emphasis to it's use. You're a very watchful and caring mom, your daughter will be on the right path.
ReplyDeletetrue, it would definitely be perfect to live in a world without crime. guess in the meanwhile we will have to protect ourselves n our love ones. :)
ReplyDeleteWow! I wanted to learn too. :D
