CHILDREN

“My son is like a new child – focused, confident, and disciplined. His teachers are amazed, and I am ecstatic. Thank you, Master Kim!”

Parents want their children to be strong and healthy and to do well in life. The martial arts program aids in building children’s confidence and character – qualities that help develop leaders. They learn physical fitness and mental alertness, which give them pride in themselves. This extends to their participation and contributions in the classroom. This new source of energy and physical agility will help them perform better at sports and other activities. They will make friends easier and will learn to respect authority – and themselves. Karate is a lifetime gift.

According to Parent’s Magazine

“Martial Arts is a fun way for both boys and girls to achieve fitness and focus. The martial arts actually help teach self-discipline and socialization skills. In fact, many parents whose children have attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) report great success with these programs because self-control and concentration are exactly the skills underdeveloped in ADHD kids."

A typical class begins and ends with a bow to the teacher, or master. After a warm-up, students practice the art’s particular skills, which may include kicks, punches and blocks. Each requires concentration and strict attention.

Progress is often marked by the belt system, which takes the beginner from a white belt through a variety of colors until black. Testing for each new level, generally every three months, is a good exercise in setting and achieving goals.

But, say experts, it’s the respect kids learn, whether from bowing or standing still and waiting for the next command, that can be the most important benefit: it often carries over into school, helping to improve behavior and even grades, according to recent research.
