Youth Taekwondo

Why Tiger-Rock?

Youth really love to participate in this highly energetic, fun, and functional activity.  More importantly youth at Tiger-Rock Martial Arts engage in the activities that help improve their cognitive, social, and motor skills during the most important developmental stages of their lives.  Tiger-Rock Taekwondo is a perfect activity that blends the advantages of both art and athletics.  Better yet, Tiger-Rock Taekwondo provides participants with an equal opportunity to advance their skills since no one ever “sits the bench”.

Tiger-Rock believes in developing the leaders of tomorrow by giving participants the training to learn self-discipline, focus better, listening skills and self-control.  These elements are essential in creating the skills and motivation needed to experience success in later years and better grades now.  Tiger-Rock also believes in creating a strong sense of commitment to community through citizenship and service.  Tiger-Rock Taekwondo for youth is built on the solid principles of our tenets: Honor, Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverance, Self-Control, Courage, Community, Strength, Humility and Knowledge.


What’s the benefit?

Tiger-Rock Taekwondo helps build confidence, self-esteem, and self-defense skills.  The Tiger-Rock philosophy and training techniques teach students how to successfully adapt and react to various social environments including the unexpected ones.  In fact, the University of West Florida Education Department validated through research that our Taekwondo training enhances social and emotional intelligence.  In addition to enhancing social skills, Tiger-Rock Taekwondo for youth teaches children how to properly protect themselves from threatening situations such as schoolyard bullying.  Our program also addresses safety behaviors when confronted by a stranger. 

It is well documented and an area of growing concern that today’s sedentary lifestyle habits are leading to childhood obesity.   The curriculum and structure of our class ensures that the level of physical activity provides children with the essential ingredients to develop strength, coordination, and agility.  It also teaches individuals how to live a healthy life, including the importance of participating in daily exercise and making appropriate nutrition decisions. 
You can be assured that your kids are receiving the highest quality of instruction.  Tiger-Rock Martial Art Instructors are required to be certified and earn continuing education credits to keep up-to-date with the latest policies and teaching methods, ensuring safety and enhanced learning.  Tiger-Rock Martial Arts International recommends that all Instructors in the academy maintain a current CPR and First Aid certification. Tiger-Rock Martial Arts also require academy owners to conduct background checks on all annually-qualified Instructors and academy workers who are 18 years old or older in their academies. Academies place a high priority on protecting the safety of members.

Youth TaeKwonDo



As the parents of 5 children I have been a soccer, volleyball, football, and baseball mom.  This is the only activity that I can honestly say that everyone cheers.  There are no parents yelling at the coaches, no parents yelling at their kids, and no kids blaming others.  It has been a very positive experience!

Johnson's Tiger Rock Martial Arts in Cary Testimonials

Read what people are saying about our programs.

"Our daughter joined Johnson's TKD about 4 months ago. She is 4 years old and simply loves it. We are the traditional sports family. Basketball, baseball, volleyball, track & field, but not TKD. My daughter's preschool classmate introduced us to this academy. It has been full steam ahead. She has developed and improved leadership skills, focus, and overall confidence needed to thrive within her school activities and personally. She interacts well all cultures which matches her school room setting and this alone makes her feel at home. The Johnsons welcomed us with open arms immediately upon meeting us. I cannot think of a better academy to attend. Other families and parents are certainly supportive. We will be here for a long time to come. Try it for yourself. I know once our son turns 4, he will participate at this academy as well.?"

"Johnson's Taekwondo of Cary provides the motivation to stay with an exercise program. It is a full body workout with a focus on safety to ensure it can be done long term. I started with Johnson's Tae kwon do 5 years ago at the age of 39 and am healthy and strong because of the ongoing draw that this type of exercise program can provide. It is more than exercise for the body, because here they teach exercise for the mind and we are challenged to do more for ourselves, our families and our communities. My two children also take TKD through this academy and have become solid contributing citizens and leaders. I attribute their success to the physical and educational lessons they received at this school.?"

"I am proud to say that my son goes to Johnson's TaeKwonDo Academy. The owners make sure that they know each child and parent on sight. They are friendly and always willing to discuss your child's progress and performance. They do amazing work in the community and foster a sense of community service and dedication in all the students. They have participated in St. Baldrick's Cancer Fundraising and Habitat for Humanity. It is more important to be a part of the community and help others than your rank. The Johnsons are dedicated to improving their students not only in TaeKwonDo but also in life skills. They make sure that their students get an Intent to Promote signed by their school teacher and parents. This ensures that the students are well rounded and respectful in all aspects of their lives. I'm so glad that we were recommended to Johnson's TaeKwonDo Academy!!"

"My son has attended lessons at Johnson's Taekwondo since last March (about 8 months). He is six years old. I am pleased to say that he has improved his ability to focus as well as his understanding of being respectful and being a good listener. He is excited to attend lessons and he just attended his first tournament. I am thrilled with his enthusiasm and everything he has learned. Bryson and Melissa Johnson are very easy to work with. They have the students' best interests at heart in terms of helping the students learn Taekwondo and encouraging them to think about how all of their lessons can be applied in everything they do in life. It has truly been an outstanding experience for my son (and everyone else involved).?"

"Johnson's Taekwondo Academy is not only a 5-star Taekwondo facility, but also a 5-star Leadership academy. Through the leadership skills I acquired through Taekwondo, I established an SAT Math Program to raise money for St. Baldrick's foundation. Encompassing all the necessary topics for the SAT and a few tricks I used in my 7th grade SAT, the SAT course is a great way to not only improve math skills, but also help St. Baldrick's Foundation.?"
