Why Teens Feel Stress
Teens face tough challenges in the process of growing from kid to adult. It’s hardly surprising that many say they feel stressed and anxious at times. They face the demands of academic pressure combined with satisfying parental expectations, uncertainty about their future, plus the difficulty of making good choices in their personal and social life. It’s not surprising teens feel stress and anxiety! They need coping skills, – a way to forget about their problems for awhile, to enjoy healthy exercise with friends, to refresh, re-energise and build a positive outlook. This is where teens taekwondo classes can help.
Boys and girls are drawn to teens Taekwondo classes for different reasons, but most are attracted by the thought of being able to carry out the fast and exciting kicks, strikes and jumps. Maybe at the back of their mind they’re also aware that Taekwondo is about self-defence, learning to move your body to defend yourself – blocking, kicking, striking and jumping to avoid being hurt by an attacker, or to just know you can look after yourself if you’re feeling intimidated. That’s useful at any age.
What Makes the Art of Taekwondo Classes Good for Teens
Our teens Taekwondo classes teach the Art of Taekwondo in a positive atmosphere that can relieve stress and anxiety and build resilience and coping skills. The reason it can do all these things is because it is not a sport or a game. The skills-based training works effectively in real life when it’s needed. So, it’s a practical and meaningful way to exercise. It makes sense to get into Taekwondo classes with Pacific International Taekwondo for anyone that doesn’t enjoy conventional fitness programs.
Class training is about learning all parts of Taekwondo; the strong defense techniques, exciting free-sparring, dynamic jumping and flying kicks and the focused hyungs (patterns).
Each part of our teens Taekwondo classes delivers its own type of result. The strong defence techniques provide class members with the ability to defend themselves when they need to. With regular practise they feel stronger and so look less vulnerable and defenceless. That’s valuable for personal safety.
Taekwondo’s exciting free sparring is energising. It inspires students to be gutsy and face up to an opponent. Sparring in a teens Taekwondo class is non-aggressive. Opponents are friendly class members, so there is just the right amount of risk to grow students’ courage and confidence, in a safe environment.
Jumping kicks look like acrobatics and tricks but the reality is that jumping and flying kicks are an amazing way to build an ‘I can do this’ attitude and overcome self-doubt. In the Art of Taekwondo, it doesn’t matter how high or far a person can jump, or even if their feet don’t leave the ground! Just start where you are, and even if something is difficult – try it anyway. It’s all about trying to accomplish things that seems out of reach, and improving as you practise.
The patterns or hyungs in a teens Taekwondo class teach students a to carry out a specific set of movements with power, speed and accuracy. It takes a focused mindset to deliver a pattern well. That same kind of focus is needed to learn in any classroom, so students sometimes find their concentration span at school increases through their Taekwondo training.
