If you want to start practicing taekwondo then you will have to join a taekwondo school. The school you choose to join will have a great impact on the training's effects for you. For this reason you should consider first what your needs are, or maybe you just want to sign your kids up, either way you should ask yourself why? Are you looking for fitness, self defense or self improvement?
Once you are clear about who is going the train and why, you need to check out some schools. Observe the other students and the instructors, chances are that if there are people that fit your own profile then the school will be OK for you. So far so good, now try to notice what the school is focusing on with its training. You can tell for example if the students are practicing maneuvers for self defense or if it is competition type of training. Also you can find out if they are all about child or adult training.
