NORWALK FAMILY TAE KWON DO
Maria Boden is the new head instructor of the school
which is under new ownership and offers programs for
ages 5 through adults. The classes are separated by rank
(beginners and advanced) and students meet twice a
week. Class meets Tuesdays and Thursdays at Oviatt
gym (6 p.m. start) or Multi-purpose room (7 p.m. start).
Times will vary depending on location due to school
activities.
We also offer our Little Dragon program designed
for children ages 5 to 7. Little Dragons meet twice a
week. This program is run concurrently with the begin-
ning class.
All programs consist of hand and foot techniques,
forms, self-defense and lessons and instructions on top-
ics such as respect, self-discipline and perseverance.
Competition is also available for those students who are
interested. Competition teaches sportsmanship, gives
confidence and allows the students rouse the skills they
have learned in class.
Families are strongly encouraged to join and train
together. We found that the kids learn better when one
or both of their parents/guardians are learning along-
side of them in class.
Cost per Sessioni Norwalk residents, Little Dragons/
Twice a Week $46, non-residents $53, Family Taekwondo
(ages 8 and above), 1st Family Member $57.50, 2nd and
