The Taekinda Program is specifically designed to meet the learning and development needs of 4 year olds. It provides a basic introduction to taekwondo, supporting the development of whole-body co-ordination through 8 key complex motor skills.


A child’s capacity to listen and follow instruction grows as they learn to self-regulate, understanding expectations of when it’s time to play and time to listen or be still. We compliment what they're learning at home and in kindergarten, ready for a smooth and confident transition to school life.

Kids Program FAQs

Naturally you have some questions... we’re here to help.

  • Will my child learn self-defence skills?

    Our self-defence curriculum is based on the Olympic combative sports of Taekwondo, Boxing, Wrestling and Judo. 


    We provide our students with a tool kit of physical skills teaching them how to use their body to block, strike and restrain in a physical confrontation. 


    Strong physiology and tonality are key to presenting with confidence. 

  • Will taekwondo help my child to have more focus and be disciplined?

    Taekwondo is an excellent tool to assist in the develpment of focus as students are able to work on their ability to manage distractions. 


    Discipline is developed through our curriculum, challenging our students in a safe learning environment. We encourage them to develop perserverence and self-discipline to achieve their goals in the taekwondo space, at home as well as at school.


  • Will my child grade in taekwondo?

    Grading events are a core part of the curriculum at Team Carlo. 


    Gradings provide an opportunity for students to step outside their comfort zone, demonstrating their knowledge and skills in front of peers, friends and families. 


    We view this process as a crucial part of a student’s development of the core value of confidence.

    Our unique grading system supports each child to learn and develop at their own pace. There are three eligibility criterias that each student must meet to be deemed ready to grade.

  • Can I watch my child in class when they are training?

    Developing focus and concentration in our students is one of the key objectives in our programs. 


    For this reason we do not have parents in the training during classes. However at each location we have tinted viewing windows so at anytime you can check on your child's progress. 


    We encourage families to attend their child's grading events to witness their growth and development at each level.


    For our younger student's that are developing independance from their parents, we implement a process that gradually moves the parents out of the hall, ensuring their child feels safe and secure at all times.
