Did you know according to the American Council on Exercise that by the time they reach high school, 63% of kids are no longer physically active! I think you can agree this is not a good trend.
Hi this is Navid Shahraki,
As the owner of Kim's Karate Taekwondo and Learning Center here in Lanham, I have great concern for the teens in our community.
I have good news for you because the training at Kim's Karate Taekwondo and Learning Center can prepare your teen for a lifetime of success and happiness!
In addition to the benefits of physical fitness, teens develop a positive mindset where problems become challenges to overcome, rather than insurmountable obstacles. Beyond mere physical self-defense, your teens will also learn emotional self-defense against negativity.
Even more, we teach teenagers how to set goals and how to grow stronger emotionally with each accomplishment; they build the self-confidence to continue to challenge themselves in everything they do, and to be the very best they can be!
instructors provide inspiration and motivation to teach your teens to motivate themselves and others! When you believe in yourself, you can accomplish anything!
Lastly, your teens will develop camaraderie with Martial Arts classmates, and use the positive influence at his or her academic school, to inspire other students!

Martial Arts Training at Kim's Karate Taekwondo and Learning Center is truly an investment in your child’s future!
Hi, this is Master Navid Shahraki,
As one famous singer said and I now echo, “I believe the children are our future.”
You know your child spends more time being sedentary on iPods, iPhones, and iPads, which leads to many chronic health problems according to the American Council on Exercise.
Martial Arts Training at Kim's Karate Taekwondo and Learning Center is truly an investment in your child’s future! Martial Arts training has been shown to greatly improve concentration and focus.
Martial Arts classes are not only a great means of exercise for our little bundles of energy, but also a valuable supplement to academic education in Lanham and Beltsville, Glenn Dale, Bowie, Mitchellville. Kids learn to set and achieve goals, which builds self-confidence; in addition, kids learn leadership skills and develop lasting friendships among their classmates.
The best defense against bullies is confidence. More often than not, bullies will walk away when their victim has the confidence to stand up for him/herself.
Training in the Martial Arts has been proven to establish healthy habits for children early in life so they become happy, healthy, well-balanced adults.
