Martial Arts for Kids
Building Healthy Habits for a Lifetime
Our Kid's Program will equip your child with the tools they need to be a happy, healthy, balanced young person. We teach decision making skills and good habits that will last a lifetime. Your children will learn traditional martial art’s values such as respect, discipline, responsibility & integrity. We also have a lot of fun with games, drills and exercises designed to help the mind, the body and the spirit! Your children are under strict supervision with our qualified instructors in the clean, safe, disciplined environment of our school.
Confidence
Martial arts is an individual sport and students learn that hard work will help them achieve their goals. It is because of this goal setting that students’ confidence will grow over time. A move that seemed very difficult at the beginning of their training will eventually be something that they master. Mastering moves, techniques, and advancing in the sport builds confidence in the young martial artist.
This newfound confidence gained in our safe martial arts school environment is also felt outside of class. When kids learn to stand their ground, they see challenges as opportunities, and instead of being afraid, they learn to overcome their fears.
Focus
A common misconception among parents is that martial arts training develops only physical performance. Sure, the muscle strength and flexibility benefits are evident. However, several techniques across combat sports require lots of coordination and intense focus to be performed correctly. Martial arts training teaches kids how to concentrate on performing complicated techniques under pressure. This is an invaluable skill they’ll use throughout their lives.
Self-Defense
If your child is often the victim of bullying, they can learn useful self-defense skills. Martial arts teaches kids how to keep their distance, use their bodies strategically, and communicate assertively.
Teaching your son or daughter these skills can them develop the ability to deter bullies when encountered. The ultimate aim of Martial Arts is to teach children peaceful, non-violent conflict resolution skills and to help them work out ways to avoid physical altercations.
Teamwork
Both in school and in life, kids need to learn how to work well with others. Being part of a club creates a sense of belonging and creates lifelong friendships. In class, students are taught to be respectful of one another. They encourage and help other students – and they get encouragement and help in return. That might seem like a small thing, but it’s not.
That doesn’t mean that your child won’t get one-on-one attention. That’s a big part of what we do, but we also encourage students to support one another. They learn that it’s helpful to cheer the success of another student – and that they can also gain something by putting their needs aside and helping someone else.
Positive Values
Martial arts teaches humility, respect and discipline. When your child begins martial arts training, he or she will learn how to be respectful and courteous in a community environment.
This can encourage a better relationship with others for kids who have a hard time controlling their temper or following instructions.
Physical Fitness
Martial arts is an effective way for kids to develop the physical skills necessary to stay active and increase their endurance. Martial arts are like a combination of aerobic exercise, mindfulness practices, and bodyweight training. Martial arts encourage children to be active in a fun, engaging way. They’ll be able to increase their level of physical fitness while having so much fun that they don’t realize how hard they’re working
