Our popular Karate Kids classes teach effective self defence and promote anti-bullying through traditional Shotokan Karate. The syllabus includes both striking and grappling skills, traditional forms (set sequences known as Kata,) break-falling and throwing. 

Most importantly, it is impressed upon them that what they learn is not to be used on others outside of the classes, unless it is in self defence.

One of the most rewarding activities that your child can be involved in is the MARTIAL ARTS!

The ultimate aim of the art of karate lies not in victory or defeat, but in the perfection of the characters of its participants."

Gichin Funakoshi 
founder of Shotokan Karate

Gain Confidence!

The first key to helping your child is to increase their confidence. With real confidence:

• Your child will not be identified as an easy victim for bullies - they are less likely to be picked on. 
• Your child will not be as easily influenced by peer pressure into drugs and smoking. 
• Your child will learn to take responsibility for themselves, and realise that they do have the right and ability to say NO.

Martial Arts are NOT just about kicking and punching. We aim to develop the characters of our junior members making them better human beings with confidence, respect for others, self-discipline and self-responsibility.

Belts, Grading & Behviour

Goal setting is an essential habit for progressing in our modern world. In Martial Arts we use coloured belts to help set those goals. Every term we hold a “Grading and Tip Test Week,” during which Students are assessed to progress through the belts with written feedback provided for each student.

In addition to assessing their physical skill and ability of the syllabus, their behaviour is also checked.
For each grade a checklist report form must be completed, signed by their parents, which lets us know that the child has been following the student rules outside of the class.

The student’s checklist includes items such as :

• Being honest and well behaved 
• Helping out at home and taking responsibility
• Self-care, eating healthily and Hygiene 
• Homework completed as requested

Merit Badges

Similar to cubs and scouts, students can achieve Merit Badges for techniques and skills taught within the class.

There are badges for individual techniques, forms, fitness, speaking in Japanese and other class skills. We run a regular badge weeks and record the student progress in their training packs.

Progression

From around the age of 14, depending on the maturity of the individual child, we begin to integrate the children into our adult classes. This assists them in approaching the art more seriously, and allows them to gradually get accustomed to the more advanced program in the adult curriculum.

It is our aim that your child will enjoy a rewarding time whilst training with us. Life-long lessons and achievements are earned by the children who persevere with their training. They will experience the rewards of hard work, a value that will serve them well into their adult years!
