When you think of karate, you usually think of physical activity and learning self-defense skills. Moo Duk Kwan is certainly that, but for us it has been much more.
My son has been going there since he was five years old, and I have seen how much it has helped shape him. The instructors teach respect, discipline, confidence, mindfulness, and personal responsibility. Those lessons carry over into everyday life.
One thing I particularly appreciate is that children can attend as many classes as they want. Unlike places that charge per class, Moo Duk Kwan gives every child the opportunity to learn and progress at their own pace.
