Shaping Young Leaders Beyond Self-Defense

Tang Soo Do (Korean karate) goes beyond learning how to throw a punch or a kick – it can help mold your child into tomorrow’s leader. At Triangle Karate, we believe that every child is unique and has the potential for greatness. Our goal is to unlock this potential by instilling discipline, respect, and a strong work ethic in them in a way that also prepares them for any challenges in life.

If your child is struggling academically or socially, or you simply want to build leadership qualities in them from an early age, we can help. Triangle Karate offers a supportive environment that complements your efforts as a parent. In addition to enhancing their physical fitness, our kids’ karate in Apex, NC training also helps boost self-confidence and foster mental strength in kids. This all-around development sets the stage for your little one to succeed in all areas of life.

The Triangle Karate Program

Our certification with the International Tang Soo Do Federation (ITF) means our instructors, curriculum, and belt testing meet the highest standards. As your child continues to train with us, they will learn to master a globally recognized discipline with a curriculum shaped by experts.

Flexible class schedule

We know life gets busy, so our class schedules are adaptable to your needs. You (or your child) will not be stuck with a rigid timetable. You can manage your kid’s schedule without stressing about them missing any classes or falling behind.

Master Thomas DuScheid’s 25+ years of experience

Learning from Master Thomas DuScheid, you are tapping into over a quarter-century of Tang Soo Do wisdom. His journey from childhood to adulthood following this ancient form of karate offers a rich learning experience for all our students, regardless of their age.

Introductory 1:1 lessons for new students

Starting something new can be overwhelming for some children. That is why we offer one-on-one lessons for newcomers. These initial sessions help your young one get comfortable with the basics before joining group karate classes. It will help them build their confidence and skills gradually, so they are ready to learn and grow in a group setting.

Our martial arts programs are designed to benefit students and their progress through the martial arts journey. We understand that some students might need to attend a few solo classes while they learn martial arts.

Practical self-defense skills

We teach hands-on self-defense techniques that are applicable in real life. Beyond the dojang, these skills allow our students to feel confident in their ability to protect themselves in the outside world. They learn how to effectively block, strike, and perform evasive maneuvers (appropriate for the child’s ability, age, and size). Most importantly, they learn situational awareness to recognize and respond properly to potentially dangerous situations.

Kids martial arts will teach your children how to defend themselves and give them confidence and an advantage if an unfortunate situation were to arise. Parents love knowing that their children are safe as they continue to develop their martial arts skills.

TK Plus: An add-on for continued learning

With TK Plus, we offer more than 150 training video modules for our students to practice on their own schedule, no matter where they are. You can now have kids’ karate lessons available anytime, which is perfect for reinforcing what they have learned in class or advancing their skills further.
