Soccer registration opens in August. Hockey ice goes out in September. By the time the school year settles, most Chilliwack families have already spent their weeknights. Then a child asks about taekwondo, and the real question is not whether they would enjoy it. It is whether it fits.
You are not locked to a weekday
This is the part most parents do not expect. Our members do not sign up for a fixed weekday. Classes are booked and cancelled in our app, in seconds, week by week. So when you tell me you have soccer on Tuesdays, Tuesdays are not the problem. Book Wednesday this week and Saturday the next.
Two sessions a week, not the same two days
Most of our U-Kids students train twice a week. Those two sessions do not have to land on the same days each week, and that is what lets taekwondo survive a season that keeps moving underneath you.
The hours you can book into
These are the hours the floor is open. You book whichever ones suit that particular week:
- Tuesday and Thursday, 3:00 – 7:00 pm
- Wednesday and Friday, 3:00 – 8:00 pm
- Saturday, 9:30 am – 1:00 pm
- Monday, closed
U-Star, for ages 4 and 5, runs 30 minutes. U-Kids, ages 6 to 12, runs 40. Teens and adults train for 50.
How it actually works
- Book and cancel classes in the app, week by week.
- Two sessions a week is the usual pattern for U-Kids.
- No fixed weekday to defend when a game gets rescheduled.
- Monday is closed. Everything else runs Tuesday to Saturday.
Saturday is the escape valve
For a lot of families this is the whole answer. Weeknights are gone by the second week of September, but Saturday morning competes with almost nothing. One weeknight and one Saturday is two sessions a week.
When a game gets moved
Tournaments happen. So do colds and away games. You cancel that class in the app and book another one. There is nothing to explain and nobody to phone. What actually sets a child back is stopping for a whole season and starting again from the beginning, not missing a Thursday.
Does it help the other sport?
I want to be careful here. Parents tell us their children become more focused and more disciplined, and those words come up over and over in our reviews. Whether that produces a better winger or a better gymnast is not something I can prove to you. What I will say is that a child who practises listening under pressure every week carries the habit out of the room with them.
Seasons end. The belt does not. A child who trains through the year keeps the thread when the other sport goes quiet.
When the answer is not this year
Sometimes the honest advice is to wait. If your child's week is already full and they are worn out by Thursday, one more thing does not build discipline. It builds resentment, and you are the one driving them to something they have started to dread. Come in January when a season has closed. We will still be here.
How to find out in one visit
The free intro class is private and one-to-one. We see how your child moves and which class suits them, and we show you how the booking works so you can judge for yourself whether it fits your week.
Frequently asked questions
Do we have to commit to fixed days?
No. Members book and cancel classes in our app, week by week. There is no weekday you have to defend when a season changes or a game gets rescheduled.
Will they fall behind if they only train twice a week?
No. Two sessions a week is the usual pattern for our U-Kids students. Turning up consistently matters more than the number of classes.
Their sport is only in winter. What happens then?
You book fewer classes while the season is on and more once it ends. Nothing has to be cancelled and restarted.
Can my child train only on Saturdays?
Yes. Saturday mornings run 9:30 am to 1:00 pm and some families use that alone during another sport's season. Twice a week moves faster, but once a week is real training.
