A new skill your child can make their own

Learning a kick, remembering a pattern and practising with other people give children something specific to work on. At WTA, General training is the place to begin.

They do not need to arrive knowing taekwondo

A first enquiry can start with your child’s age and whether they have trained before. WTA can then discuss a suitable group and the arrangements for a trial.

If your child is unsure about trying, say so. Ask how a beginner is introduced and whether a parent can stay to watch. You can talk through those questions before deciding to attend.

Something to practise, then practise again

Stances, kicks and patterns give a student a clear task. Learning is in the details: where to place a foot, how to control a movement and how one movement follows another.

The aim is to give students a foundation they can keep using. An interest in patterns or performance can grow from that foundation; regular training is also a reason to continue.

Let them try before you decide

The trial is free (RM0). Completely new learners: Saturday 2pm. Returning black/Poom-belt learners: Saturday 5pm. All times are Malaysian time.

Before you come, confirm the date with WTA. Ask if the class suits your child’s age and if there’s a place. Sending a message does not book a place.
