NORWALK FAMILY TAE KWON DO
Maria Boden is the new head instructor of the school
which is under new ownership. This school offers pro-
grams for ages 5 through adults. The classes are sepa-
rated by rank (beginners and advanced) and students
meet twice a week. Class meets Tuesdays and Thurs-
days in the Oviatt gym or multi-purpose room. Begin-
ners meet from 6:15 to 7 p.m. and advanced students
meet from 7-8 p.m.
We also offer a Little Dragon program designed for
children ages five to seven. 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, lessons and instructions on topics
such as respect, self-discipline and perseverance. Com-
petition is also available for those students fvho are in-
terested. Competition teaches sportsmanship, gives con-
fidence and allows the students to use 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 session: Little Dragons

$53; Family Tae Kwon Do (ages 8 and above), First fam-
