What Your Child Needs in life and the Martial Arts
To succeed and thrive your child needs a positive environment in which to develop the emotional, physical and social skills required to fulfill their potential – both in life and the martial arts. There are a number of key areas that are essential to empower your child’s development:
- Health
- Discipline
- Focus
- Respect
- Confidence
- Happiness
The martial arts give your child the perfect head start in life by stimulating their physical, emotional and creative needs and our Kung Fu Kids programme has been designed to around these essential areas.
“Kung Fu Kids Martial Arts classes give your child that essential head start in life!”
How Kung Fu Kids acheives this
Our Kung Fu Kids Training Programme is for children aged 4 – 6 yrs in our Infants classes and 7 – 11yrs in our Junior Classes – 12yrs and above train as Adults in the Adult Martial Arts Classes. The programme develops each of the key areas through exercises specifically designed for growing and developing bodies, Kung Fu techniques and Forms, skill games, children’s meditation and brain gym, role playing and competitions.
All training is done in a fun yet disciplined manner. The children learn how to pay attention, do as they are instructed, work together, play together and respect themselves, their fellow students, their instructors and their environment.
They learn how to deal with bullying, bullies and confrontation management in exercises and role playing that emulate the environment and situation in which they are likely to encounter it.
What we teach
The magic formula that we have developed over 40 years of teaching children is to make it broad based, to include hand and leg techniques, elbow and knee techniques and grappling to include joint locking and groundwork. They hit pads and not each other and all training is done with safety in mind and respect for their growing bodies.
A typical class session will consist of warm up skill games and exercises, basic and combination techniques, form and anti bullying, self esteem, safety or stranger danger training that will all help with their moral, social and cultural development. All classes are run in a safe, happy, enthusiastic and vibrant style.
