New Tien Lung
Daily Dragons
Elementary School-Aged
Program

WHY IS OUR PROGRAM SO POPULAR?
Our Elementary School-age Program is the only program of its kind in the area. We are not a daycare! We are not a baby-sitting service! Our program is first and foremost about quality Martial Arts Instruction and physical fitness. Children participating in this program do Martial Arts daily! Hence our Daily Dragons!

This program has been designed to assist parents with the tough job of giving your child the tools and skills needed to overcome their daily obstacles. Whether it be getting bullied at school, a lack of focus on schoolwork or self-confidence issues, our Daily Dragons can help your child become a self-confident leader and have fun in the process.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
On school days transportation is provided to our facility. When
you pick your child up from our facility their daily Taekwon-Do lessons are already done. You get to head home and enjoy supper and quality time together! The children take part in our exciting daily, confidence building Martial Arts classes with an emphasis on dealing with Bullies without fighting, Respect, Focus and Discipline. Parents pick up their children upon completion of their class at 5:15 pm (parents should allow an additional half an hour for their child to change and be ready to leave). On non-school weekdays 2 regular Taekwon-Do classes will be held plus many sport specific, fun and fitness oriented activities. Students registered in this year round, inclusive, program also receive PD days, Early Dismissal days, Spring Break Camp, Christmas Camp and Summer Camps at no extra charge! Family discounts are also available!

Students of the Daily Dragon program will receive a regularly scheduled class from
4:00 - 5:15 pm on Monday to Thursday. On Fridays, they will receive a bonus class restricted to the Daily Dragons students which will focus on competitive drills and skills. The Daily Dragon program is modeled after the Donnan/Vimmy Ridge Sports Alternative program. Daily attendance allows children attending non-sports alternative schools the opportunity to advance at the same accelerated rate as those attending sports alternative schools.

Within weeks the changes in your child will become obvious. They will be able to say no to unhealthy peer pressure. Their confidence level will rise. They will start being able to focus more clearly on their homework and they will begin to feel better about themselves.

All of our Supervisors, Staff and Instructors are Certified Black Belts trained in First aid & CPR and have completed a child welfare check too. Many of our Instructors are World Class athletes that have competed on the Canadian Team. We want our students to spend every possible moment that they can in class learning and developing their skills. The success of this approach speaks for itself. We have had numerous National Champions and have placed over 50 students on the Canadian team over the past 7 years, of which winning 19 medals at the World Championships - 6 of those being GOLD!

Ages 4 and 5

The Little Dragon program taught at all Tien Lung locations is a comprehensive Street Proofing program for young children.

Our program focuses on two main areas.

Kids Classes
Ages 6 to 11
Beginners and Advanced

The three main components of our children's classes are:

  • Self Defense:
    • Physical aspect - the moves and techniques that will permit your child to defend themselves should they ever need to
    • Strategic aspect - focusing on correct posture, learning body language, maintaining eye contact, and even courtesy, all of which can eliminate the need for physical action
  • Fitness: Students can expect increased -
    • Flexibility
    • Coordination
    • Aerobic and Anaerobic levels
    • Abdominal endurance
    • Upper and Lower body strength
  • Character Development: The self discipline achieved through Taekwon-Do brings beneficial effects far beyond the physical. In addition to leadership development, these results can be seen at school, with better grades, and in the home, through helping with chores and greater respect for parents and grand parents.
