Effective Leadership Skills are the most recognizable characteristics of successful and high achieving individuals. They are also the skills that parents most desire for their children to learn. Leadership skills are crucial tools for success at home, in the community, at school and in the workplace.
The Leadership Program is open to students of all ages who want to reach their full potential not only as a Martial Artist, but in all aspects of life. Leadership students strive to prefect their Martial Arts skills and become positive role models for others- not only in the Martial Arts School but at home, at school and in the community.
While training in the Leadership Program, each student focuses not only on the physical skills he or she must learn, but also on important skills that will help lead to personal success in life. This aspect of our Taekwondo philosophy is just as important to us as kicking high or breaking boards. 
Communication skills, dealing with bullies and peer pressure, time management, and a confident and authoritative presence in front of other people are key characteristics of excellent Leaders. These characteristics can be learned by any student regardless of their belt rank or age by attending special Leadership Training Classes, helping out in lower rank classes and special events at the school.
If they choose, Students in the Leadership Program will eventually have the opportunity to join the Instructor Trainee Program and advance through the Three Levels of Certification and become a Certified Songahm Taekwondo Instructor.
Students in our Leadership Program also have the opportunity to take traditional Taekwondo to an extreme level with ATA Xtreme. ATA Xtreme is an elite level of training that blends martial arts with high-flying acrobatics and performance style presentation!
