Not Just About Kicks

I’m Vikas Jha, and I coach Taekwondo at Tiger Taekwondo Academy. Most folks think it's just kicking and fighting, but Taekwondo is much more. Sirf kick nahi, sab kuch basic se shuru hota hai (It's not just about kicks, everything starts from the basics). I teach you the sport, its rules, and how to actually play - not just fight.

What You’ll Learn

• We begin with fundamentals - Poomsae forms training, technical drills, and why each move matters.
• You’ll get the hang of kicks (Dollyo chagi, Ap chagi, Dwi chagi), blocks (Makki), and punches (Jireugi).
• I’ll break down the Korean terms we use daily, like dobok (uniform) and counting (Hana, Dul, Set...).

Competitive Edge

• Once your basics are solid, I get you ready for Kyorugi sparring techniques and official competitions.
• We cover point systems, how to avoid fouls (gamjum), and practice with full gear.
• The training is tough but controlled, so you build real confidence.

Fitness & Discipline

• Classes focus on Taekwondo fitness drills - speed, strength, flexibility. Agility ladders, push-ups, stretching, all for those high kicks.
• Discipline is non-negotiable - expect Korean commands and a respectful vibe.

Climb the Belt Ladder

• Progress means moving up belts. Regular Taekwondo belt grading tests happen at the academy.
• You’ll show your Poomsae, techniques, and smash some boards (Kyokpa). It’s a big deal, and I’ll push you to earn it. Shabash! (Bravo!)

Real Talk

Taekwondo needs mehnat aur sabar (hard work and patience). It's not for everyone, but if you’re in, it shapes you for life. Chaliye, ready to start?
