Answer 3

Traditional Tae Kwon Do teaches you so much more than fighting and defending. To become truly great at anything in your life, you must have equilibrium. Tae Kwon Do teaches the values to place into your life to achieve that equilibrium. They are called the Tenant of Tae Kwon Do

-Curtsy

-Integrity

-Perseverance  

-Self-Control

-Indomitable Spirit(unbreakable)

It is up to you, but if you truly learn and apply the Tenants, and achieve equilibrium, you will have all things in your life balanced. Balance between school and friends, family and work, and all other things will allow you to focus your energy on the Martial Arts.

The purpose is to better ones self through physical and mental means.

Answer 4

If you cannot answer that question yourself, you should really reconsider joining any martial art in general. The school is asking a question like this to understand your intentions and goals and if you cannot provide them one, they will know that you are not serious about learning. Many people learn martial arts for self-defense or health benefits. A greater understanding of martial arts promotes awareness (of mind and body), confidence, courage, patience, and much more. Studying martial arts without development of discipline or compassion will only lead to senseless violence. Please think along these lines and come up with your own answer for your purpose of learning Tae Kwon Do. After that, tell your parents and see if they agree.

Answer 5

You could tell your parents that tae kwon do will help improve your ability to focus and finish goals that you set. Tae kwon do helps you to follow through with the tasks that you have set. It constantly challenges you by requiring you to put in more effort. Just as soon as you think you mastered one thing there's another thing you have to learn to master. It's as much psychological as it is physical. It helps you build confidence in yourself and you can make some awesome friends.

Answer 6

huh thats kinda weird for a parent to ask but what I said to my parents was. If I ever get in a fight karate will give me self confidence to know that I can defend myself. It is proven that the focus can help you in school. It is a great way to stay fit. Its something you love. And some people say it makes you live longer. And is also a great way for self control.
