What is the best age to learn Taekwondo?

Nowadays, Taekwondo is not a skill that only boys learn. In order to enable their children to have the ability to protect themselves, more and more girls are learning Taekwondo. But what is the most appropriate age to learn Taekwondo? Everyone has different opinions on this issue. Some think that it is not good to do it too early, while others think that the earlier the better. In fact, children's bones are not yet fully developed, so it is not appropriate for them to learn at a young age.

1. Children under 3 years old are not suitable for Taekwondo practice

If children are young, their bodies and bones are not fully developed, so they cannot meet the balance and muscle strength requirements of practicing Taekwondo. At the same time, it will also have an impact on children's psychology. Young children have poor emotional self-control. If they practice confrontational sports such as Taekwondo, they are prone to violence, which is not good for their physical and mental development. Studies have found that children under the age of three are not suitable for practicing Taekwondo. Otherwise, it will not only be detrimental to children's physical exercise, but may also easily cause injuries. It is recommended that preschool children should not engage in high-intensity or high-difficulty exercises.

The intensity of exercise should be controlled for children aged 23 and above to preschool age.

It is recommended that preschool children should not engage in high-intensity or high-difficulty exercises. Children over three years old who practice Taekwondo also need to take precautions against potential safety hazards to their bodies. Because children are still young, they are not very aware of danger, and they are not good at preventing danger and protecting themselves, so they may get injured when performing difficult movements.

3.5-6 years old is suitable for starting to learn

Five or six years old is the best age to start learning Taekwondo, because children at this age have normal physical development, their minds are still blank, and they have not formed bad habits.

When people get older, they tend to have more stable thoughts, which are difficult to change. Taekwondo is all about cultivating a person's accomplishments and virtues from an early age.

4. The most suitable age for Taekwondo training is 6-12 years old

Because the child's bones are not fully developed at this time. The ligaments are also easier to stretch. The most important thing is that children at this age have just started to remember things, and what they have learned will not be easily forgotten. However, children who train at this time will have a disadvantage in the future, which is that they will have bow legs, or O-legs, and parents need to correct their children's bad posture in time.
