program description
This program was designed specifically for children
ages 4-7 years old. In the Child Beginner Class,
your child will learn and grow in a process that accommodates their
skills
and
abilities. They will train with other children in their age group,
and will not be distracted by younger or older classmates. Their
training will not be slowed down due to the learning abilities
of a younger child; and it will not be sped up to keep up with
the capabilities of a pre-teen. This means better, more functional
classes designed just for them. Your child will feel comfortable
and more capable of achieving excellence. They are at an age where
the more special they feel, the harder they will try.
The Child Beginner Class is structured
on a rotational curriculum that teaches 8 very important
skills. The 8 advanced skills selected for the Child Beginner
Class were broken down into specific requirements
that
each
student will tackle at every belt level. This means your child
will be sharper, more focused, and better developed physically,
mentally, emotionally, and socially than a child who does not
participate in a program strategically designed like the Little
Ninjas Program.
Here are the 8 advanced skills broken down
in the Child Beginner Class definition:
- Focus/Concentration- your child will learn
how to focus all of their attention to the task at hand while
committing themselves to learning and growing.
- Perseverance/Teamwork- your child will
learn how to face challenges presented to them, knowing that
the challenges will be difficult to complete. They will learn
how to face challenges alone and with peers.
- Courage- your child will learn how to overcome
fear and nervousness through training that initially seems
intimidating.
- Discipline/Intensity- your child will learn
how to perform their martial arts skills with strong effort
and attitude.
- Coordination/Speed- your child will learn
the components of speed and how to control their balance, body
posture, and technique.
- Fitness/Agility- your child will learn the
mechanics that govern movement and how it plays a role when
they are jumping, dodging, and moving about quickly.
- Control/Technique- your child will learn
the fundamental components of good technique, which will make
them great athletes.
- Flexibility- your child will gain and maintain
flexibility through fun and educational drills.
Complete education of these 8 skills will
help your child be the best they possibly can be at their age
of development. They will advance to the top of their age group
while they learn and have fun. You and your child will not regret
the adventure you are about to undertake.
benefits
Martial Arts is great for children
A psychological study found that children in martial arts have an increased sense
of responsibility., a decrease in the willingness to take foolish risks, and
a higher sense of self-esteem. This is why millions of parents are using martial
arts to supplement their children’s education.

Our reward system improves children’s
self-esteem
The belt system is the key to building esteem. When kids earn their belts it
gives them a great sense of accomplishment that really improves the way they
feel about themselves.
Our Program teaches children discipline
We have a trained staff of patient instructors who love to work with children,
but are also very clear about limits. We enforce good rules of behavior in
class, and we expect the same kind of behavior at home and in school.
Our activities channel children’s
aggression
Many doctors have prescribed our school because of the positive outlet it gives
the kids for all their energy.
Our program teaches children essential
self defense skills
Our program teaches practical, proven self-defense methods. We also teach the
kids that the moves they learn in class will work, so they don’t go home
and try them on their family members or neighbors.
