Kids

We pride ourselves on supplying the ultimate experience in our junior classes, we know that in order for a child to love and stick with a martial art over a long period they have to share the same goals as their parents. And that both the child and the parents have to enjoy themselves. Being parents ourselves we understand that if a parent's goals aren't being met, then they may feel they aren't getting their money's worth and that If a child's goals are not being met, then they will feel like they are being forced to train, and will never give 100%.
We have put together a list of the main reasons given and benefits for a child joining our classes.

Physical Fitness

Just like with adults, one of the most common reasons for enrolling a child into a martial arts class is fitness.
With childhood obesity rates rising and more and more children spending a lot more time in front of the television, playing video games and using their Pc’s. However, even among more active children, martial arts is still attractive as can help improve cardiovascular endurance, flexibility, balance, strength and overall energy levels.

Life Skills

Another popular benefit for enrolling children in the martial arts is to develop "life skills". These skills include discipline, self control, patience, confidence, courage etc.
Our aim is to help every child grow individually and maximise their potential.

Self Defence

Self defence is the most obvious reason that should come to mind when considering enrolling a child in the martial arts. The focus of a good children's martial arts class, while still teaching self defence movements, should be on conflict resolution, personal responsibility and avoidance. In that respect, attending a good martial arts class would benefit both the bully by teaching to respect others as well as your own power, and the bullied, by teaching how to calm a situation or defend oneself if need be.
All our classes are bully free.

Behaviour Issues

Many parents turn to the martial arts when their children are acting out in school and at home. This is tied in to the life skills reason, but is very specific in what the desired outcome is. These parents are looking for help improving attention span, respect, demeanour and self control. The structure of many martial arts classes can greatly aid in these areas.

Safe, after school activity

Many parents are just seeking a safe, wholesome, useful activity for their child to occupy some of their free time. These parents don't want their child to sit at home all evening, or want them to get involved in something that makes them set and follow through on goals. Martial arts training will certainly help in that respect.
All of our instructors are CRB police cleared every three months and are registered and ranked with the British Combat Association.

All our equipment is tested regularly and is to B.S Standards

So starting a Self Defence at an early age is a must for the future good for their confidence and Self Believe “as this is the greatest gift we can give”

So all parents can have peace of mind at all times, relax and enjoy.
Tiny Tigers starts at 3 years
Juniors start at & years old.
