Build confidence, develop core-strength, and improve physical fitness with Taekwondo. From beginner through advanced with a curriculum that works toward a world recognized blackbelt, students learn traditional forms and drills as well as defensive tactics, progressing to application of techniques through controlled-contact sparring. We are family focused and encourage parents to attend with their children. Adult students encouraged to attend the Intro to Martial Arts class (Youth) from 6 - 6:30 pm as well as Taekwondo class times based on their skill-level. Uniform & test fees are additional.

Kyudo, Japanese longbow archery, has a long tradition in Japanese history in both militaristic and ceremonial venues. Today's Kyudo is a non-competitive, introspective process to shooting that helps to focus one's mind and body on the simple act of shooting a bow. Parent participation is required for those under fifteen years old. Visit www.mnkyudo.org for more details about kyudo and the instructors. There is a membership fee into the Minnesota Kyudo Renmei when shooting begins. Practice bows ($25) are also for sale - they are optional, but recommended. Loaner equipment is provided for most adults.
