Generation X

Programs for the Younger Students: Generation X | Tiny Kickers

Generation X is our New syllabus which is unique to Imperial TaeKwon-Do Association and the Nicholls

Taekwon-Do Institute. It is an elite training system within the Imperial Taekwon-Do Association for children aged between 5 - 7 years. Which aims to lay a foundation of Taekwon-Do for many years of training. For younger children please see our "Tiny Kicker" Program.

The Imperial TaeKwon-Do syllabus is very complex, with 24 patterns up to and including 7th Degree Black Belt. So Generation X section has been introduced to help motivate and encourage the younger generation to continue training in Taekwon-Do.

Generation X is meant to be fun, 45 minutes of solid training for a 5 -7 year old isn't. So here at Imperial TaeKwon-Do we have broken up them 45 minute lessons with a few Skills & Drills consisting of Co-ordination exercises, Balance & Awareness Games & of course Kicking and Punching drills.

Also the grading system has altered from that of an adult or older children's classes. We have introduced 5 Belts for achievement Yellow - Green - Blue - Red &  Black Striped White belts are worn to signify the students level of technical attainment. 

This will allow your child to recognize the different grades, and we find it helps to motivate the children as belt promotion is on an achievement grading assessment. Your child will need all five achievement belts before they can take there first TaeKwon-Do grading. To achieve all five belts normally takes a year - year and a half.

Once your child has reached White Belt Black Stripe they are then able to train with Taekwon-Do specific classes.

Training in a martial art is not just about kicking and punching—it is a system to encourage individuals to become a valued member of their society, this is as relevant for children as for adults and builds on what you have been teaching them at home, and what they are learning in school.

In our opinion no other UK based organisation can match the value we provide making our Taekwon-Do classes accessible to all.
