My name is Marc Grenier, I’m the founder of Pilsung Martial Arts Academy. You can read about some of my credentials (see the sidebar) if you’re wondering about my experience or expertise in the martial arts. But the real reason you should listen to me is because I've been training in Taekwondo for over 17 years now and teaching for 15 of those years. Much of that teaching experience has been working with beginners and a LOT of children. From as young as 3 yrs old--I've taught the whole spectrum with great results:
No matter what your child's particular situation is, I know I have the experience and skills to help them too! Taekwondo Will Teach Your Child Success Principles!Why Taekwondo? Taekwondo is the official sport of Korea and was made an Olympic sport in the year 2000. Taekwondo is famous for its fast, and powerful kicks and its advanced footwork making it an exciting sport to watch. But it's also great for kids too, here's why: Beginner classes focus on developing physical fitness while learning basic self-defense techniques. Taekwondo uses a colored-belt system... Beginners start training as a "no-belt" and have to earn their white belt-- and eventually progress all the way to black belt. The belt system teaches the idea of constant self-improvement in a fun way by giving your child something fun and exciting to achieve. Automatically, your child will learn the fundamental system for becoming successful in life. 1. Set a goal and develop a plan to get there 2. Work that plan, and adjust for difficulties 3. Achieve the goal... 4. Set a higher goal and repeate steps 1-4... Building your childs self-confidence and makign success a habit ensures your child will have a head-start in life... feels likes a success... and "does good" in life as an adult!

Parents Can See A Difference In Their Children!"I
Highly Recommend Pilsung Martial Arts!"
"When my son started to tell me he wanted to start taking martial arts classes, I asked around and Pilsung Martial Arts was recommended by a friend of mine at work. After speaking to Master Marc about his school, I was completely impressed with his knowledge of martial arts. Not only is his knowledge mastered in his form of martial arts, but his knowledge of other forms of martial arts is also vast. I highly recommend Pilsung Martial Arts for anyone looking for a physical and mental boost." --
Wayne Sisco "Pilsung Martial Arts Is Like A Second Home!"
"Pilsung Martial Arts is like a second home to our family. We all exercise at Pilsung, progress in our training and have made many friends here. Master Marc’s knowledge at physiology and physical training is utterly suberb. He willingly works with each member of our family as individuals, for our six year old daughter who is just learning taekwondo basics to motivating our nine year old son, to continuing training for the adults. I recommend Pilsung to all serious martial arts students in the area." --David Hyland-Wood "We're Looking Forward To Many Years of Training For Our 6-Year-Old-Son!"
"Our son’s experience with Pilsung Martial Arts has been extremely positive. We are very imporssed with Master Marc Grenier’s teaching style. There is a lot of positive reinforcement and students are not allowed to test until they are ready to progress. The entire staff at Pilsung Martial Arts is very professional and they are great with the kids. We look forward to many years of quality instruction and training for our 6-year-old son." --Rob
and Kelly Abbott "My Children and I Are Always Excited To Come To Class!" "Pilsung Martial Arts has been a wonderful addition to our family’s lifestyle. My children have grown physically and mentally. Master Marc has a fatherly approach to training the children and it shows in them. Since I have also started training here, I have noticed growth in my skills in just the first few weeks. Again, Master Marc’s genuine concern and passion for us students is refreshing. He takes the time to research proper training techniques and makes sure we apply them. I love the atmosphere here. It is like home. My children and I are always excited to come to Pilsung Martial Arts. I recommend Pilsung Martial Arts for anyone looking for a great school that cares for its students." --The Mehmel Family "My Son Has More Confidence!"
"By becoming a member of the Pilsung Martial Arts family, my son has become more confident in his daily life." --Kendal
Roberts And The Kids Love Training Here Too!
"My favorite thing about going to Pilsung Martial Arts is learning discipline. I also like learning to defend myself." -Nathan

Knutson "Martial arts is really fun! We learn how to kick, punch and spar"
-Xavier Garrido, |
In most martial arts beginners are taught basic techniques and stances and are told to practice those moves over and over again—only striking the air and targets such as heavy bags and kicking paddles.
Learning to defend yourself effectively by training like this can take months, even years because you’re not learning to fight a REAL person!
A major difference in taekwondo training is that we introduce free sparring to beginners early in their training.
Of course we make sure SAFETY is first for the beginners--they learn to spar without actually contacting each other first. This allows your child to get comfortable using the techniques first without fear of getting hit.
Then, when they are ready, and have protective sparring gear--they're allowed light contact sparring.
This allows your child to get more comfortable with dealing with a real, live human who is constantly reacting to their techniques.
Training like this quickly teaches your child what it feels like to hit a real human (not just striking targets)… to evade and block real attacks (not just imagining an opponent)… and learn to quickly deal with the psychological and emotional effects of fighting a real person.
Additionally, we'll teach your child effective self-defense techniques and strategies for dealing with bullies. More importantly we'll teach them that "prevention is better than cure" and avoiding fights and confrontations is always better than having to use their skills.
That being said, your Child will learn to defend themselves fast with taekwondo.
Most children have short attention spans!
And that's why taekwondo is such an effective option for your child to get in great shape and stay that way.
For example, most adults have no problems starting an exercise program or trying to get in shape.
Come January 1st, almost everyone decides they want to lose a little weight and tone up… but those resolutions rarely last.
Why?
It’s simply a matter of using an effective system and sticking to it… and traditional exercises like running and going to the gym can quickly become repetitive and boring—so most people just give up.
That’s what makes martial arts training so effective!
In each class your childs' current physical and mental abilities are tested and stretched… and they leave each class sweaty, happy and with a feeling of accomplishment.
Because they’re constantly learning new things, either about themselves, or the martial arts you’re NEVER bored.
Plus, because they’re working out with a class full of other motivated students—and they have a dedicated instructor there to push them—your child can’t help but maximize each and every workout.
Which means they’ll look forward to going to each class… increasing their abilities… pushing their limits… and before you know it your child will be in great shape and have healthy exercise habits for life!
They'll raise their self-confidence and self-esteem by achieving
their individual goals…
They’ll feel like real martial artists when they earn their
first belt (white belt)…
Your child will display more discipline, and self-control at home
with family members and at school with classmates
They'll learn how to work as a team by working out with other classmates
Their concentration will increase and they'll be able to focus at
school... on homework and other important tasks
Your child will get stronger, more agile, learn balance and control
and this will carry over into every area of their life (if your
child is involved in any other sports, martial arts is hands down
the best way to “cross-train” to increase their physical
abilities … and put them at an advantage over the other kids)
Everyone will envy you because your child is so respectful to you
and other adults they meet in public
Your child’s memory and learning ability will increase
Your child will easily make new friends and fit into social circles
easier (this will affect every area of their life as they grow
older, they’ll be able to easily advance in school, work and
social groups)
Watch your child’s grades go up… and… stay up!
Our special martial arts training gives your child the discipline
needed to study, complete homework and organize their time more
wisely—and these skills make success a habit, not a chore!
Your child will start to act more responsibly, not blaming others,
following rules and taking responsibility for their actions…
Plus much, MUCH MORE!
