Self-Control
Respect
Work Ethic
Our kids are growing up in a world that tells them to do whatever they feel like doing and that their happiness is the highest good. But, seeking happiness without good character (that is, self control, respect, and work-ethic) is a recipe for disaster. Real martial arts teaches that doing the right thing is always more important than doing what we feel like doing. It teaches focus and proper goal-setting. In all, our aim is character and age appropriate self defense skills through Jeet Kune Do. It’s an unbeatable combination.
Will this help with my child’s confidence?
A major problem for all of us, adults and children, is anxiety. Martial arts teaches us to focus on what we can control (ourselves). Confidence isn’t emotion. It comes from discipline and training.
MARTIAL ARTS TRAINING AS IT SHOULD BE
The correct balance of discipline, fun, and training is the key. We engage mind and body, teaching your child the simple brilliance of Jeet Kune Do. They learn why, not just how and so much more than just punches and kicks but how they can and should apply their skills everywhere - at home and school. We aim to motivate the pursuit of excellence in all fields, especially character and education.
Real training provides a totally bully-proof child - both mentally and physically. Safe sparring with instructors that builds them up, not beats them up.
Self-Defense
Not Sport
Because no one will give you a trophy
for protecting yourself.
Jeet Kune Do is based on old-school boxing and Wing Chun. You’ll love how the kids start learning right away how to hit and move, blasting off chains of fast straight punches, darting away, and then coming back with a quick kick to the knee. Or groin. And then moving back out again. No brawling. Imagine Ali or Sugar Ray Robinson with kicks. You’ll be amazed.
Do the kids spar?
Yes. Advanced students spar with instructors, not other students so that they learn. We build them up, not beat them up.
SELF-CONTROL & RESPECT
Think about it: all conflicts start because someone has lost their self-control and isn’t being respectful. That’s why these qualities are the pillars of real martial arts and a good life too.
We tell the kids all the time: if you’re practicing punches and kicks or violence in any form without self-control and respect as your foundation, you’re in a gang, not a martial art school. Teach these essential qualities early and we save our children tons of trouble down the road in life.
How often should my child attend?
We have three memberships for kids. Any one day per week, any two days per week, and unlimited. That provides schedule and budget options for everyone.
FITNESS, STRENGTH & MOBILITY
Too screen time isn’t good for anyone.
Our kids program safely and progressively helps your child get strong, fit and mobile. In Kung-fu (Jeet Kune Do is a Chinese-American method, by the way, not Karate) we aim for focused mind, speed, power, and fluid movement. No standing in the outfield. No sitting on the bench. Each class makes your child better!
Do adults teach the kids classes?
Yes. We have teenage black belts that assist but the classes are led by adult masters of their craft.
