MINI-DRAGONS FOR KIDS

Training in the martial arts offers the following benefits for your child:

Improves self esteem
Martial arts is unlike team sports in that the emphasis is on the kid’s self esteem, not the team’s winning record. Our grading system is the key. When the kid’s earn their belt, it really improves the way they feel about themselves.

The structure of the class teaches discipline
Our patient instructors enforce good rules and proper behavior in the class. We call this our “Martial Arts Attitude”. The kid’s are expected to have the same “Martial Arts Attitude” outside of the class. Our parents really appreciate the improvement in their child’s self discipline.

The classes help channel aggression
Studies have shown that the martial arts can be good for child that has A.D.H.D. That is because the martial arts can give a positive outlet for all of the kid’s energy.

Development of confidence
Developing self confidence is one of the main reasons a lot of adults and their children take the martial arts. All of our classes have many drills for the development of self confidence.

Self defense skills are learned
Our classes are first and foremost fun, however we do teach awareness and avoidance principles. We also develop the kid’s verbal and physical skills to deal with a self defense situation. These skills work through continuous practice. They work so well that we also teach the kid not to try these techniques on sibling, family member or friend.
