High Energy, Fun & Exciting
Our teens' programs at Franklin Martial Arts include high energy workouts and many different options of styles of martial arts.  Students can practice one, two, or multiple styles of martial arts from different instructors at different times.  Martial arts are very popular with both boys and girls, and this is well reflected at Franklin Martial Arts. Classes are a good mix of both.


Teens under 15 years old
For this age group we offer Taekwondo and also the Taekwondo Competition Team.  These programs are a great foundation to any martial arts style as it covers basic principles of punching, kicking, blocking, movement, stretching, self defense and much more.

Teens 15 and over
Teens over fifteen continue to be able to practice Taekwondo, but also have the option of practicing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Krav Maga, Boxing, Cardio Kickboxing, Yoga, Muay Thai and Edge competition team.  You can explore them all, just chose a place to start.  If you are unsure where to begin, we suggest you try Taekwondo to get your feet wet.  The regular classes are only 60 minutes and are geared for the person looking for a moderate workout.  When you are ready for a further challenge, you can take advantage of the competition team or any of the other programs to the left.

Parent of a teen?
The primary priority of our instructors is always safety, safety, safety.  Our secondary priorities are effectiveness and informative classes that are fun.  The goal of our teens programs is to create leaders.  Our trained instructors use the tested and proven "double goal" method of teaching and coaching.  Double Goal means our instructors don't just teach them martial arts and coach them in sports, but also look to achieve the more important goal of teaching life lessons through sports and martial arts. 

Some say the teen years are the best to enroll in martial arts, when the teens can benefit most from focusing on positive principles, good guidance, and the positive influence of role models and educators.  Franklin Martial Arts provides a safe, friendly, family-oriented environment for our teens. We are the only school in Franklin to offer teens-only classes (no adults), although we offer one teen/adult combined class a week.  Franklin Martial Arts... something for the whole family.  Give Franklin Martial Arts a try!
