Do you know what Martial Arts can teach your child?

Taekwon-Do develops listening skills, concentration, confidence, respect, discipline, leadership, teamwork, physical fitness, and self-esteem.

Dear Parent,

You are probably thinking, "How can Taekwon-Do and Martial Arts teach all these impressive values and success skills?" Many people are surprised at the variety of life skills a child absorbs while becoming skilled in Martial Arts.

Let me introduce myself.

My name is James Tosoff and I am the owner/operator of a rapidly growing Taekwon-Do school on the West Coast of British Columbia, Canada. My love for the martial arts started when I was very little, it was not until I was 12 years old that I realized my dream of studying the martial arts. For almost twenty years I have expanded my knowledge studying Taekwon-Do as a certified 4th Degree Black Belt; 1st Degree Black Belt in Chinese Boxing (S.C.S.) from my Sifu Albert Carty and went on to earn titles in National Competition as a two time Canadian Taekwon-Do Silver Medallist. quest for knowledge has not been limited to just martial arts however. I earned my undergraduate degree from the University of Victoria in 1994 and was the recipient of the Administrative Excellence Award from the EFC International Convention 2000.(EFC is an internationally renowned organization dedicated to raising the standards of the martial arts and have influenced many great martial arts educators in Canada, USA, United Kingdom, Australia and Puerto Rico). In 1998 I was presented with the Vancouver Island Award for Excellence in Instructing. For the past 8 years, I have devoted my efforts towards developing Taekwon-Do in the Greater Victoria area. My goal is to provide the best quality martial arts school for adults and children here on the West Coast.

Learning Martial Arts is a journey of self-exploration - a journey whose benefits you can reap by becoming a student of Taekwon-Do. As a student you will develop physically and mentally, increase your strength, fitness and flexibility levels, reduce stress and tension and receive a great workout while learning valuable self-defense skills and self-discipline.

• Taekwon-Do strengthens minds as well as bodies. Your children will do better in school and in their chosen careers.

Learning Martial Arts is fun

-it is also the Opportunity of a lifetime! Here are some of the things we do:

• Set Specific Goals for each student.

• Establish Short Term Goals for the day, or the week ahead

• Monitor their progress in school by checking their report card when they get tested for a belt.

• Identify Intermediate Goals for the weeks leading up to a specific belt.

• Discuss the Long Term Goals required to achieve the ultimate goal of achieving Black Belt status

• And -- we incorporate these goals into a child's Mental, Emotional, Intellectual, and Physical approach to life's challenges . Youngsters who attain the Black Belt level become Champions in Life. They become Leaders whose qualities include Integrity, Self-Discipline and Confidence.In other words, Taekwon-Do fosters wholesome values and self-discipline that can be carried over to every avenue of life.
