Coastal Canyon offers top notch instruction for learning self-defense, fitness and teamwork with non-contact martial arts. I enrolled my son at 7yrs old to learn fitness and self-confidence by strengthening muscles, increasing stamina, focusing his energy and refocusing his attention toward his goals. All the black belts here are awesome leaders that are super patient. They energetically help both children and adults to learn and improve at each one’s own pace. They add gamification to help kids have fun each day. They share insights and historical details to help everyone understand more about how certain techniques have evolved. Even “sparing” is non-contact. My son has come to realize that Tang Soo Do has significantly less contact and fewer injuries than basketball or soccer leagues. Significant pushing and fouling are unfortunate realities in basketball/soccer, even at elementary school levels. Tang Soo Do constantly teaches and practices respect for one another’s mind and body, and giving each competitor space to be safe!
