General Questions
Q: What is Taekwondo (ITF) and how is it different from Karate or other martial arts?
Taekwondo is a Korean martial art known for dynamic kicks, discipline, and self-defense. At Reveal Martial Arts, we follow the ITF style, which emphasizes proper technique, courtesy, perseverance, and confidence. While Karate and Jiu Jitsu also have great benefits, Taekwondo combines striking, patterns, and sparring to give a complete mind-body workout.
Q: What are the benefits of practicing Taekwondo martial art?
Training improves fitness, focus, and confidence. Parents tell us their children show more respect at home and school, while adults gain stress relief, flexibility, and strength. Many families search online for ‘karate classes in Southlake,’ ‘karate near Haslet,’ or ‘karate Alliance/North Fort Worth.’ At Reveal Martial Arts we teach ITF Taekwondo, delivering the benefits families expect from ‘karate’—confidence, fitness, and focus—plus an emphasis on powerful kicks, punches, structure, self-respect, goal setting and self-control.
Q: What age can my child start martial arts and do you have classes for adults?
Children can start as young as 4 years old in our specialized kids’ program. We also have dedicated classes for teens and adults.
Q: Will martial arts make my child aggressive?
No. Martial arts teaches respect, discipline, and self-control. Most parents actually see their child become calmer, more focused, and more confident.
