Hapkido: a children’s Jiu jitsu program with a twist.
Even with so many choices for Toronto Jiu-jitsu schools, Taekwondo clubs, or Kickboxing for youth, it is hard to find one with age-appropriate instruction.
T.H.A’s kids martial arts classes have a well-structured curriculum, and professional instructors that connect with children at an age appropriate level.
We also believe that the benefits reach far beyond pragmatic norms of what any Toronto Karate, Taekwondo, Judo, or children’s Jiu-jitsu classes has to offer kids.
Our kids program is based on the principle that if every child learned the respect, courtesy, and discipline that the martial arts teaches… our world will be a very different place.
