Taekwondo is primarily a kicking art, often with a greater emphasis on the sport aspect of the art. Taekwondo stylists tend to fight at an extended range, and keep opponents away with their feet. It is a hard/soft, external, fairly linear style and is known for being very powerful. There is a lot of competition work in many dojongs.

Students must show respect to their parents, Sabinum, their instructors, to higher ranking students and to all others. Students must be polite and encourage a sense of justice. Students must constantly look within themselves and not be quick to judge others. One must know the difference between right and wrong and have the conscience, if wrong, to admit it and feel remorse.
If we learn philosophy from books, we tend to forget it as soon as we leave them, because it is not related to our actual lives. But since Taekwondo is connected with our lives like every movement of ours is, we can never forget its philosophy. That is, the philosophy is one of actions that can be learned from other actions, and our everyday activities.
Students and enthusiasts of Taekwondo have many reasons for their interest in this and other martial art styles. Some are drawn to the physical fitness and weight-loss aspects of training. Others seek to add discipline and self control to their lives. While still others are concerned about safety and self-defense.

Setting aside all the obvious reasons I like my son going to Cali kicks (taekwondo).
Things like; self-focus, self-discipline, self-defense, an outlet away from video games etc...
I like that my son is learning how to stick with something that is not always easy and that he has gained a sense of accomplishment from his training of taekwondo also he is learning about himself and his own capabilities. I think that life tools are being developed from taekwondo practice that will help him later on.

My son has been attending Cali kicks Martial Arts Academy for almost three years, and I can only say: Thank you Master Sánchez for promoting discipline, respect, and a wonderful sense of community at Cali kicks. My son has been learning self-discipline and hard work, and I’ve seen the positive impact of it. Master Sánchez is a great role model for the kids, and he’s truly encouraged my son to believe he can achieve one belt at a time with constant practice - he can see someone's potential.
Thank you, Cali kicks Martial Arts Academy team! Your discipline combined with your kind ways bring

Cali Kick Martial arts academy is such an amazing school for all ages! I have spent almost half my life here and master Gerardo Sanchez has taught me so much more than just self defense. Master Gerardo teaches discipline, morals, integrity, and many more life skills! If it wasn't for Cali Kicks, my life would not be where it is today. It had helped stay out of trouble and try in school as I grew up. I've learned to be respectful and patient to everyone the same way Master Gerardo respects all his students. Staff here is extremely friendly and caring. I would highly recommend anyone to stop by and

Best martial arts school! Their instructors are friendly and professional. I’ve been training for a few years and I love it. The instructors make me feel comfortable, and they motivate me to give it my best at every training. Grand Master Sanchez has also taught my first grade students Taekwondo and my students had so much fun. I definitely recommend this martial arts school to any parents looking for a place to keep their kids active. At Calikicks Martial Arts Academy you will feel like family.

Over the course of my time at Cali Kicks, I found a family and friends!! I spend from the age of 6 - 19 training with Maestro Gerardo Sanchez and the Cali Kicks family. There we focused on ways to gain determination, discipline, and dedication and it that has been one of the reasons I have successful in my studies and daily life. I loved my time and training and always looked forward to it--I miss it to this very day! Please join the family and community that Cali Kicks creates once you step through the door!

Great martial arts school I used to train when I was younger but due to responsibilities and now I got my little brother into it and he loves it. Great pricing and even greater instructors. It’s a family business that really makes you feel welcomed. Your kids will really love Maestro Gerardo and Maestro Cookie.
