[quote=Anonymous]My daughter started taekwondo about 2 years ago and likes it very much. However, the school puts a lot of pressure on the kids to compete constantly, and now are pressuring the kids her age to enter a “leadership” program that costs another $250 a month for an extra class thar has some mysterious benefit they can’t explain but will help them be “better” at Martial arts. 
The black belts in the class travel constantly for competitions and I have no idea how any of these people can afford to travel every month or more often and sometimes it’s out of the country. They have specifically targeted my daughter and she’s upset I can’t really spend more than we are already because rhey have convinced her it’s necessary and she’s “so talented” . 
Why couldn’t she just take classes?are all studios this high pressure to compete constantly? It seems excessive and also slightly coercive to convince these kids that they can’t progress without these extra classes and all the travel .
I regret signing her up for sure, but now she’s so into it I don’t want to just take it away. I just don’t like the extreme nature of all of it.
