Lone Star Institute of Taekwondo, Arlington's premier martial arts academy, offers something for the whole family. From our Little Ninjas Program (ages 3-5) to youth & adult classes, and women's self-defense classes, LSIT has a class that fits you. Taekwondo offers many benefits including self-control, self-defense (never offense), positive self-esteem and confidence, respect for one's self and others, discipline, and physical fitness. LSIT's instructors and students embody and promote the 5 tenants of Taekwondo : Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverance, Self-Control, and Indomitable Spirit.

Learn how to defend yourself against bullies, strangers, and attackers of all shapes and sizes while increasing your self-confidence and fitness in a safe and fun family environment.
"The family that kicks together, sticks together..."
Little Ninjas
Ages 3-5. Small children can defend themselves also. In this class emphasis is placed on "stranger danger" and increasing awareness. Students also learn how to use punches, kicks, elbows, knees, and their voice (the most important defense for small children) to defend themselves and alert others.
Womens Self-Defense
This class teaches women and teen-aged girls how to RECOGNIZE & DEFEND against an attacker. The class will strengthen your mind, body, and spirit so you may never have to be a victim. Emphasis is placed on prevention of attacks, but also easy and effective self-defense techniques. The class is taught by Master Carol Henry and a female black belt assistant. Master Henry has many years of experience teaching women's self-defense and working with women who have been in abusive situations. Classes are scheduled at Cliff Nelson Recreation Center BUT, we can bring the class to you...
