Mind Body & Spirit For Children

Confidence against bullying
Understanding what to do if a stranger approaches them physically or other children attempt to influence them negatively/bullying.
Student will gain confidence in their ability to understand danger inside and outside the class.
Respect
Respect is a very important part of Martial Arts training. In the days of the Samurai he respected himself, and all others, even his enemies. It is very important to have this respect inside and outside the training hall (dojo) as it is the bridge to mutual understanding and ultimately to peaceful co-existence with others.
Self Control
When practicing with other students self control of ones’ actions is very important as to not hurt each other.
Concentration
The way Karate is taught to Children at the club seems to improve their self discipline, concentration levels, and their focus a great deal.
This is because the student uses the mind and physical action at the same time to a precise set of instructions.
This helps the student at school and later on in their lives. The art of concentration is to learn to ignore distractions and clear the mind of all thoughts, except for the task that is being done at the time.
Self Discipline and Etiquette
We like to teach Martial Arts Discipline, but in a relaxed way. Discipline in the Training Hall (Dojo) is very important for safety and an essential part of teaching a Martial Art.
