“Our kids do not respond to punches and kicks with punches and kicks”

WE ENHANCE YOUR CHILD'S SELF-DISCIPLINE AND SELF-RESPECT THROUGH OUR COMPREHENSIVE KIDS AIKIDO!

We help your child build self-respect, stay fit and gain self defense skills, all while encouraging a sense of discipline. Through our specially designed Kids Aikido classes, we enable your child to control feelings and overcome his/her weaknesses, which in turn adds to their self-esteem. Our highly-effective instructor's design Kids Aikido sessions that emphasize the self instead of the opponent.

Even if your child is involved in sports, it may not be enough. Recent studies have shown that a program like ours- that focuses on personal achievement and improved self-esteem- are vastly more effective than team sports.



KIDS LEARN LIFE SKILLS FROM WORLD CLASS TRAINERS WHO MAKE EVERY SESSION A FUN EXPERIENCE

In our program, we don’t believe in just teaching children how to grapple, throw and pin others. We work to build your child’s character. During classes you’ll see your child’s energy, confidence, and spirit rise while he or she becomes strong and confident. We’re not just talking about physical strength…but the kind of strength it takes to resist peer pressure, deal with bullies, and other negative aspects of being a kid. All while our instructors coach your child to improve their fitness and coordination.
