A blend of discipline and fun, this 40-minute class is perfect for ages 5 and 6. Introduces the art of kempo with a focus on life skills and personal development as well as self-defense and safety training. Classes are small; most offer a ratio of about 5 or 6 students to each instructor. Our staff works hard to make sure that the learning process is fun! Students warm up with a lively and fun routine that is great for a child’s motor development. They then participate in the basic blocking and striking drills which provide a perfect outlet for an energetic child as well as great exercise for all. Instructors intersperse the active training with discussions on topics such as dealing with bullies, personal safety, stranger danger, doing their best, showing respect, or the value of self-control. At the end of class, their hard work is rewarded with a game or activity which involves their martial arts skills. Benefits Shy children develop confidence and physical skills, energetic children acquire self control and an appropriate outlet for their energy, and all children have a great time with this program! Through the belt ranking system children learn to set goals and work toward them, as well as the value of patience and perseverance. Our instructors and Leadership team strive to be positive role models for the children.
