Ho-Am Taekwondo; The Lilly Pad Blog Focus On Alternative Therapy

By Gregory Hughes


Just as meat cannot be served to newly born babies but milk alone, at tiger rock martial arts, training is specialized as per individual level of growth requires, there s taekwondo programs with curriculum packaged for the different age groups, catering for the kindergarten group, the elementary, teenagers and then adults all together in a trainee tailored approach according to The Lilly Pad Blog.

Children between the age of 4-7, the emphasis is placed on improving the level of confidence, focus, and self-control and this is achieved through much practice than theory, for it is observed that most children in this age band learn so much from observing, taking part interactively than they do through reading, yet even a little bit of reading is included in their curriculum.

In one form it is depicted on the tombs of Beni Hasan, Egypt, and in another as works of art depicting battle scenes on cave paintings at eastern Spain. In one form it is documented in writings manuals from ancient China s Xi dynasty times, and in another through the literature of the Sangam period in southern India.

From ages 8-11 with the prior characteristics already developed and the trainee dressed in them, children in this age band learn to positively channel their strength into becoming better citizens from such a young age, being able to stand up to bullies, and also cautious in defence that they do not become one. Here students are taught the physical aspects of martial arts.

It is combat oriented in that you learn physical self-defence, the use of strength to counter an immediate threat of violence. This can be conducted whether the practitioner of the form of martial arts is armed or unarmed. There s also a mental aspect to this, for combat before its execution in the physical realm, is carried out in the psychological sphere, thus calling mental fortification.

Taekwondo requires balance and coordination, it s 80% kicks and 20% hand strikes, and it foists physical fitness and mental wellness on all. As the most form of martial arts, it has rankings that marked by belts, 9 of them, the ultimate level being the black belt, which even itself has 9 degrees in it.

Since students in this age band grow emotionally, begin dating and in the same sense expose themselves to others, this is a challenging phase in life; hence it is here where emotional intelligence is taught even more. Practices such as attaining of inner peace and emptying of one s mind through meditation become essential in the development of a trainees inner being, adding to physical combat practices already taught.

At Adulthood level is where all the tough stuff is taught. Physical fitness is the first order of the business, taekwondo is characterized by a variation of kicking techniques; head-height kicks, Jumping & spinning kicks, fast kicking, these are all aggressively taught here. Mental prowess is here developed along with heightened cognitive sense which contributes to reducing stress level and your well being in a variable and volatile environment.
