FAQ

Questions parents ask first

What age can my child start taekwondo?

Children can start at 4, in Little Dragons. In some cases a child of 3½ can try a class to see if they are ready, and the instructors decide child by child.

How do we start?

Start with two free trial classes at the school you choose. Your child gets the same guidance full members get.

Does my child need any experience?

Not at all. There are classes for complete beginners, and the instructors guide each student step by step. Your child does not need to be in shape before starting.

Which school should we choose?

Choose the school that is easiest for your family to get to. Class times differ by school, and each school’s page has its own timetable.
