Ultimate Weapons Training Classes
At Legacy TaeKwonDo of Northern Kentucky, weapons training complements a student's basic self-defense skills. Learning how to manipulate an object and coordinate it with one's footwork, movements, kicks, blocks, and strikes increases coordination, balance, agility, and creates a level of awareness of one's surroundings that naturally heightens one's self-defense.
Our Weapons Program Includes
Weapon Classes
These classes are divided into beginner and advanced levels. We'll train you in nunchucks, bo staff, and sword. Advanced students can also start to train in additional weapons of their choosing.
Beginner classes focus on basic techniques for appropriately handling each weapon, how to respect and use it safely and properly, and conditioning exercises to build muscle memory. Advanced classes focus on the application of the different weapons, including additional footwork and transitions, as well as forms development.
Many students in our weapon classes choose to participate in tournaments that allow them to demonstrate their skills and compete with others.
Weapons Camp
This camp is for colored belt students who have not done weapons classes and wish to try out the weapons that we teach. Also, experienced colored or black belt students can participate to enhance the skills they have already been working on in our current weapons class.
Camp runs 5 days, Mon - Fri. We offer full and half day camp participation. We work with nunchucks, bo staff, and sword. For student safety, we train students with padded nunchucks and wooden swords.
Students love the fun additional activities they get to try, like slicing fruit! Legacy can work with new participants to get them their own weapons before camp starts.
2023 Weapons Camp is July 10-17th. Limited spaces available!
