HOW MARTIAL ARTS INSTRUCTION WILL BENEFIT YOUR CHILD

At Family Martial Arts we have the No. 1 Martial Arts programme for children in the United Kingdom. Our program is designed in conjunction with experts in the field of education to provide social, physical, emotional and attitudinal growth.

Our programme works hand in hand between the family and school, providing improved self-discipline, self-confidence, mental alertness, and goal setting skills. We have several different tools available and reward systems in place to assist with this process.

POSITIVE BEHAVIOUR REWARDS :

There are many ways for our students to earn great attitude badges and rewards! Completing a weekly job list, bringing in notes from home or school for going above and beyond expectations and bringing in an awesome test from school with scores of 100% / A+ are just some of the examples.

GOAL SETTING:

It is important for each child to learn to set short-term, intermediate and long term goals. At Family Martial Arts, every child's ultimate goal is to achieve a rank of Black Belt. Black Belt is a symbol of excellence in Martial Arts and an important tool for instructors and parents to use for developing desire, tenacity, and for teaching the importance of follow through in any activity. Young people are taught at Family Martial Arts that through dedicated, intense work, all worthwhile goals in life are possible.

EMPHASIS ON ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE:

All young people in the programme are required to bring copies of their report cards from school. Once students have learnt their martial arts curriculum, can display these skills with a great attitude and are consistently being respectful at home, they can be considered for graduation to the next belt level. Those who try their personal best at school are allowed to graduate to their next belt. Every child's effort is considered. From C to B and B to A to straight A's are what we teach. Small goals leading to bigger achievements!

Family Martial Arts team of dedicated Specialist Children's Instructors work hand in hand with schoolteachers and parents to ensure a well-balanced and focused development process for each child. Parents consistently attribute improved grades in school as a direct result of the increased achievement, motivation, self-direction, and self-confidence provided by the programme.

PROPER USE OF SKILLS

It is constantly stressed to all students that Martial Arts skills require them never to be abusive or offensive and is only used defensively. In fact, it's part of our student creed.

5 REASONS WHY EVERY CHILD SHOULD BE ENROLLED IN MARTIAL ARTS

1. Improved Report Cards in School:
Our curriculum is designed to teach children the importance of concentration and focus. Improved concentration means that your child will learn more at school. Therefore you can expect your child to receive better grades for both academics and attitude. In our school, children do not graduate to their next belt unless they are putting in their best effort at school. Our programmes are designed to create successful leaders.

2. Martial Arts Builds Healthy Kids:
Doing Martial arts is a great workout! Your child will breathe better and sleep better. Children who take martial arts are slimmer, healthier, make better decisions about food, and in general, learn to take better care of themselves.

3. Positive Attitudes:
Kids in our programme learn to have a positive and respectful attitude. You won't find yourself repeating yourself over and over, or arguing with your child like most parents do. Kids learn to be respectful of their parents and teachers. You might even catch your child saying Yes Ma'am or Yes Sir!

4. Self-Confidence:
It's true; kids who take martial arts develop better self-confidence. They're encouraged to take chances, to push themselves further than they thought possible. The success they experience through martial arts classes teaches them that they can be successful at anything if they truly believe they can, and are willing to work hard. Improved confidence leads to better grades, a better circle of friends, better performance in sports and extra curricular activities in general. A confident child is a happy child.

5. Self-defence: Family Martial Arts Teaches Two Forms Of Self-defence:
One is physical - your child will improve his or her strength, flexibility and overall health. Additionally, your child will learn to strike with tremendous power and effectiveness. Hopefully, your child will never be picked on or need to fight…but should the occasion arise, shouldn't everyone know how to protect themselves? The second form of self-defence that martial arts teaches is internal. Children learn to spot danger and avoid dangerous people, places and activities. Martial arts can help your child avoid the need for a physical confrontation. This second form of self-defence is perhaps the most valuable of two.

6. Anti Bullying
Bullying is a massive problem in society today - can you guarantee that your child is safe? The emotional aspect of bullying is often more traumatic than the physical aspect and can scar a child for life. Family Martial Arts teach the number 1 anti-bullying programme available anywhere in the world today called BULLY BUSTER. This will arm your child with the physical and mental skills to effectively deal with the bully. Check out the video link below from SKY TV to see why we are no.1 for anti bullying tuition.
