TAGB Tigers - Promoting Children’s Fitness
TAGB Tigers is a national Tae Kwon Do based activity club
for children, and is part of the Tae Kwon Do association of
Great Britain.
Our aim is to encourage children to become
more active by associating physical fitness with fun and achievement.
Research has shown that:
1 in 4 school children are overweight.
A large percentage of children rarely achieve the levels of
activity required to maintain a strong heart and lungs.
We hope to help reverse this situation by offering children
the opportunity to be active whilst learning the dynamic art
of Tae Kwon Do in a safe and fun environment.
Frequently Asked Questions
What should my child wear to their first
lesson?
Any loose comfortable clothing they can move freely in, e.g.
tracksuit bottoms or shorts and a T-shirt.
Does my child require any special equipment?
No, just a small bottle of water: we have drinks breaks roughly
every 15–20 minutes.
Do I need to book a place in advance?
Due to the popularity of some of our Tigers classes, please
contact us in advance to ensure availability.
Can I watch my child take part?
Of course, parents are more than welcome to watch from the
back of the class. All we ask is that noise is kept to a minimum
so as not to distract the students during the lesson.
Finally
Our system
of training is based on inner development and self-expression;
concentration, focus, goal setting, self-achievement are the
topics of discussion. Motor skill development, co-ordination,
flexibility and self-awareness are the basics to the physical
training.
Children learn to reach their
full potential through our confidence building martial arts
program. Caring Instructors provide expert training in a fun
and safe environment to produce positive results.
We always make sure that each
session is fun and informative, the instructors are specifically
chosen for their abilities to help promote success and improvement
for the individual.
We, as an organisation, and
as parents ourselves make sure that the children train in
a safe environment and all our instructors are CRB checked.
