Martial Arts for Kids
"Karate Kids" Get Fit, Learn Self-Defense and Life Skills
Kids love martial arts like karate because of what they see on TV and movies - Kung Fu Panda, Ninja Turtles, and the Power Rangers. Thrilling stuff!
But as a parent, you want the real thing... a martial arts program with wide-ranging benefits for your "karate kid". Richmond Martial Arts in Richmond BC offers your child what we call "the gift of confidence." Not just a game or exercise to burn off excess energy, our kids martial arts program addresses the whole child: body, mind and character.
Kids Martial Arts Students Gain:
- Improved motor skills, endurance and concentration
- Greater self-confidence
- Ability to handle bullies, peer pressure
- Healthier lifestyle
- Positive attitude
- Self-discipline to do what needs to be done
- Respect for parents and authority figures
- Better grades at school!
Better Grades?
It's true. Here's how we motivate our students to excel academically. When a child is ready to graduate to the next belt, we give him/her a sheet to be signed by parents stating their child is behaving well at home and by the teacher confirming the child is doing well at school . If the sheet isn't returned to us before the exam date, we may delay the test. The point is for the kids to understand that fitness is fun but family and school are more important.
What Are The Classes Like?
Our classes for children start as early as age 3. They do stretching, conditioning, aerobics, self-defense and life skills sessions at a kid-friendly pace that keeps them engaged. And all activities focus on fun and safety.
Sign your child up today for 2 FREE classes at Richmond Martial Arts. You'll get private 30-minute sessions with an instructor to determine your child's interest level and the most suitable program.
