Inspiration from the Dragon’s Den – June 19th 2025
“The intensity with which you train inside the Dojang will determine the intensity you possess to defend yourself outside of it.”
Every punch. Every stance. Every drop of sweat.
You’re not just training for grading day — you’re training for life.
- Inside the Dojang, we build habits.
- Outside the Dojang, we rely on them.
Train with focus. Train with discipline. Train like it matters — because one day, it might.
Your self-control, courage, and strength under pressure are forged right here, one session at a time. Train with intensity. Live with confidence.

Do kids really stop doing Taekwondo/Martial Arts or are adults not showing them why it's important?
In most cases, children don't stop doing Taekwondo because they're lazy or distracted.
They stop because they feel not supported.
✅ No follow up work
✅ Korean theory never revised
✅ Missed events because no one checked the announcements
✅ No encouragement after a hard session
✅ Too many choices - videogames over dedication
Instructors are only given a few hours a week to train these kids. They'll have to figure out the rest themselves.
So ask yourself this:
• Have I supported their development outside of class?
•Did I celebrate their efforts - not just their victories?
• Have I reinforced the message that it is important to show up? *I think this is very important!
Children need active parents, not just present parents.
When instructors and families work together, their potential is limitless.

Inspiration from the Dragon’s Den – June 3rd 2025
“Destroy the old you, before it destroys you.” isn’t just a dramatic quote — it’s a challenge to evolve.
The old you might doubt yourself. Procrastinate. Make excuses. Fear failure. The new you is forged on the mat — one punch, one kick, one disciplined decision at a time. Every session is an act of self-renewal. You leave behind what no longer serves you, and you step closer to your potential.
1. Useful at any time – It’s not just about strength. It’s about courage to let go of who you were, to become who you’re meant to be.
2. Useful in all things – Whether it’s standing up for yourself, staying focused at school, or being kind when it’s hard — martial arts teaches growth.
At Dragon’s Spirit Taekwon-Do, we don’t fear change — we train for it.
