Hilliard Taekwondo Academy

Hilliard Taekwondo Academy Ms. Thompson, 7th Degree Black Belt & Hilliard resident, has been helping Hilliard area families become safer, more confident & respectful for 20+ years.
(208)

We are not a franchise or affiliated with ATA, but independently owned & operated by Ms. Thompson. Hilliard Taekwondo Academy (HTA) is not a franchise and is not part of the ATA, but is independently owned by Ms. Thompson, 7th Degree Black Belt. She is a member of Taekwondo America, a national organization for independently owned taekwondo schools and she is currently the Vice President on the Sr

Partner team. Visits to HTA are by appointment only at this time, and to reduce inside crowding & noise level, only instructors & the students for each class, plus ONE person per student family in the current class (and that one person is a parent/guardian) may be inside. Others may watch from outside and view classes taking place in our nearly 3,000 square foot workout floor through our wall of windows all along the sidewalk. We're helping all ages become more self-confident and physically fit; to never give up as they overcome challenges and disappointments; to develop respect & impulse control; and that hard work and effort helps achieve goals. Excellent workout for our teen/adult program (great program for the parents of our junior students).

Want more Confident, Respectful Kids?

STOP:
🚫fixing every situation
🚫making excuses
🚫agreeing it's always someone else's fault

DO:
💚guide them though finding solutions
💚let them be responsible
💚hold them accountable

Confidence & respectful behavior isn't the result of us constantly running interference for our kids, making excuses, smoothing the way, and removing every challenge. That simply teaches them that life should always be easy, and that we don't believe they are capable when it's not.

Confidence & respect take root and grow when parents & mentors set high & achievable expectations, guide kids through handling challenges, and showing them the value of accountability & responsibility.

TODAY, Wednesday June 10th
Bring your buddies to your class with you today for:
Self-defense Buddy Day

We'll be practicing fun & effective bully defense and other self-defense skills.

Your buddies need to be the correct age for your class.
They need their parent or yours to come in and sign the participation permission.

We want our students to stay loyal to us, so to be fair, we prefer your friends who go to other local martial arts schools stay loyal to their program, too. That's why we ask you to invite your friends who aren't already students in other local martial arts programs.

You want your children to respect you.

That means 1) setting expectations and boundaries ...
and then 2) following through to consistently and calmly hold them accountable.

Consequences are uncomfortable, but it's that uncomfortableness that will help to shape and improve their behavior.

We reward the behavior we accept.

And the behavior we accept will impact their success at school, in friendships, and on the job.

Teaching kids to be accountable.

Kids are going to make mistakes as well as poor choices, and the earlier in life we can help them learn how to manage next steps, the more successful they will be at home, at school, in friendships, in activities, and in a career.

Parents often ask us to chat with their child as part of their family's "village" when an issue happens.

The natural reaction when faced with the uncomfortable results of those mistakes & poor choices tends to be:

🚫Denial

🚫Deflection

🚫Avoidance

🚫Anger

🚫"No one likes me"

🚫"Everyone always picks on me"

Our goal is to avoid being led down the rabbit holes that can be created with each of those ☝️ and to help them stay focused on:

✅the facts

✅their role in the situation

✅different choices they could have made

✅next steps

✅... being accountable

Accountability is often uncomfortable.

Uncomfortableness encourages us to change. 💛
