SEE HOW WK Taekwondo STACKS UP
Explore our comparison between martial arts and traditional sports to see why martial arts could be a more beneficial and fulfilling choice for your child's overall growth and development.
Traditional sports sometimes focus more on physical prowess and less on the holistic development of a child, potentially neglecting important aspects like emotional intelligence and personal character development.
Team selections and competitive play can sometimes lead to exclusion or benching of less skilled players, which can be disheartening and impact their enthusiasm for physical activity.
A strong focus on winning can overshadow the importance of teamwork, sportsmanship, and simply enjoying the game, which are vital aspects of sports for children.
In team sports, individual attention from coaches can be limited, which may hinder the personal skill development and confidence of less naturally talented children.
Martial arts is a great way for kids to improve their strength, flexibility, and overall physical fitness in an enjoyable and dynamic setting.
As children master new skills and earn belts, their confidence soars. This sense of achievement helps build their self-esteem and belief in their abilities.
Regular practice of martial arts requires discipline and concentration, skills that are transferable to all areas of life, including academic performance.
Children learn to respect their instructors and peers, fostering an environment of mutual respect. They also develop better listening skills, which are crucial for learning and social interactions.
LIFELONG CHARACTER AND SUCCESS TRAITS
Your kids’ everyday friends aren’t the main concern anymore when it comes to character development. Now you have to worry about all the negative and harmful influences that the internet can introduce into your children’s lives.
The true benefit of WK Taekwondo are the character and success traits that are developed through martial arts training.
Through learning the skills and techniques of martial arts, to the guidance and inspiration of our instructors and the positive social interaction with their fellow classmates, your kids will develop a whole list of skills.
FITNESS DISGUISED
Face it. Between the foods we eat and the constant sitting and staring into screens and devices, many kids aren’t getting enough regular exercise.
Our martial arts classes for kids are full exercise routines disguised as a boatload of fun! That’s because they are jam packed with activities, games and drills that are all designed to disguise the repetition of training.
Of course it’s important for your kids to exercise and wear themselves out – they stay healthy, sleep well, and develop their minds and bodies. But just as important, our classes will help develop at a young age the physical habits they need to grow into healthy adults.
SELF-DEFENSE FROM PREDATORS AND BULLIES
We never want our kids to have to use these skills in modern life, but every good parent still wants their kids to be safe.
That’s why WK Taekwondo is very serious about teaching your kids the skills needed for self-protection in any circumstance, from the neighborhood bully to a stranger on the street (and so much more).
But knowing how to defend oneself is only half the battle. Our classes teach your child the respect and self-discipline needed to diffuse a situation without violence whenever possible – as well as the knowledge to know when force is the only way to safety.
TONS OF F-U-N !!
We never forget… kids are kids and they deserve to have some fun!
We can’t guarantee that their normal school teachers are making learning an enjoyable experience, but we DO guarantee that your kid will have a blast in our martial arts classes.
It really is a challenge to design a class that keeps children focused on learning, respect, and discipline while still having fun… but our classes are created just for that. They are so full of ideas, activities, and games that your kids will never get bored or stagnate.
It’s also a fantastic and healthy environment for them (and you) to make friends with other like-minded students. It really is a place where laughter, cheer and happiness abound.

We had trouble deciding where to sign our kids up for martial arts and we're so glad WKTS opened up near us. So far it's been nothing but a positive experience! The kids really enjoy the sessions and their Coaches/Masters. This is a place I can see positively effecting the growth of our kids.
Master Adam’s Taekwondo class has been a fantastic experience for my son and us as parents. From day one, he created a warm and welcoming environment, making every child feel accepted and valued. My son, who is on the autism spectrum, was treated with the same respect and support as the other kids, which meant a lot to us. Master Adam’s positive energy and enthusiasm are contagious—he celebrates each child’s progress with genuine excitement, turning even small achievements into big moments. His approach not only fosters skill development but also builds confidence, making every class fun, encouraging, and inclusive. I highly recommend this class to any family looking for a supportive space where their child can thrive! If you’re considering TKD for your kiddos and even yourself I 10/10 recommend!!!

I am thrilled to share our experience with W. Kim Taekwondo Schaumburg program. From the very first class, it was clear that this school prioritizes not only skill development but also character building. The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about martial arts, fostering a supportive and encouraging environment.
The classes are well-structured, making learning fun and engaging. I appreciate the emphasis on both physical fitness and mental focus, which are crucial in martial arts.
Our son enjoys the classes and always looks forward to the next session. We are very happy with his progress and the positive impact this program is starting to have on him!
This is a great place to learn, and for the growth of not only kids but adults as well. I am and adult, doing this with my son, and it is a great positive experience for us. We are learning something new, it is also an exercise, besides learning the various techniques that martial arts brings. Great to learn from Master Adam!
We’ve been here since they opened about a month ago, and WK Taekwondo has been an amazing experience for our boys (age 6 and 10). It’s super easy to schedule (and reschedule) classes to fit our needs. Each kid gets treated individually and with careful attention, and most of all the kids have fun while learning skills that will help them grow into respectful, disciplined, and happy adults. We’ve been looking for our boys to do an activity/sport that is not necessarily team based or seasonal (they already play soccer), and this taekwondo studio is just what we needed. Five stars to Master Adam and WK Taekwondo!
