In growing up, children face many challenges from today's society.
These challenges & events range from, overcrowded classrooms, peer
pressure, violence, drugs and bullying to the level of negativity in our
society that can discourage even the brightest and most optimistic child.
We want our children to remain physically safe and overcome these challenges,
whilst maintaining their optimism and self-esteem.
The courses JC Martial Arts schools have will aid & empower
your children to meet these challenges with confidence.
Our youth martial arts programme is specifically designed. The emphasis
of our curriculum is on developing vital life skills such as self-discipline,
respect, confidence and perseverance all in an enjoyable, safe and friendly
environment.
In our Individual Development Program we set goals for the child in consultation
with parents, always using positive reinforcement techniques and focusing
on achievements.
Of course, our martial arts training system has the goal of Black Belt
Excellence, teaching children skills with regards to defending themselves.
For example we teach:
- Self-Defence Strategy: how to avoid dangerous people and situations
- Conflict Resolution Techniques: Skills enabling non-violent resolution
of aggression
- Devastating Self-Defence: As a last resort, our techniques can disable
an opponent to resolve the situation
We currently have 3 specifically designated ‘juniors' classes
a week. These classes have at least two fully qualified coaches present
ensuring safety and individual attention if necessary.
After reading this, how can you be sure that our program will work for
your child? It's easy to find out, we offer a first free lesson
and a further 2 lessons, before any commitment has to be made to join.
Upon joining, we offer monthly payment schemes that have benefits
such as
- DISCOUNTED OR FREE SUIT
- DISCOUNTED OR FREE BELT TESTINGS
- FREE ONCE A WEEK OR UNLIMITED TRAINING
We want all our students and parents to notice improvements in several
key areas within the first few weeks of training. With children, we initially
concentrate on respect and focus. Respect for themselves, to their parents,
teachers, instructors, friends and family, gaining a commitment that our
techniques will not be misused or ‘showed off'. Focus, where
the child improves their listening and concentration skills, attempting
to ignore distractions and increase their attention span.
We know you want the best for your child and we believe we provide it
in the martial arts field. Our classes are exciting and jam-packed with
high-energy workouts, fun activities and the life-lessons to help your
child succeed.
Here is what your fellow parents said about our classes and programme
for their children:-
“My daughter has great fun at the classes, while improving in self-confidence
and good manners that are especially noticeable when she meets people
for the first time now. She also loves the medals and certificates from
gradings and the child development programme”
“Like a lot of young boys J… has endless amounts of energy,
the classes have given him a controlled outlet for that energy. The classes
have definitely improved his concentration levels and his patience when
confronting new or difficult things”
“The Taekwondo classes are structured to give my son effective
self-defence skills, focusing on assertiveness rather than aggression.
His achievements in gradings & competitions have raised his self-
esteem giving him much more self-confidence.”
“I took S….. to the classes originally to improve her fitness
and get her doing a more regular physical activity than weekly PE, but
as well as achieving these objectives, she's discovered something
she really enjoys and has made new friends while learning self-defence
and improving her overall co-ordination and sporting ability.”
So you've heard about our junior programme and what it offers, but
martial arts isn't just for kids!
Forget overcrowded & overpriced gyms, our workouts will give you the
same benefits plus the added skills of a martial art. We also offer great
discounts for second family members having several Parent/Child student
combinations.
Learning The Techniques
Taekwondo (our specialty) incorporates a variety of self-defence techniques
such as kicking, blocking, striking and punching. Many of the techniques,
such as spinning and jumping kicks, have no counterpart in other martial
arts and are unique to Taekwondo. After watching a class, it's easy to
see why Taekwondo is often referred to as the most athletic of the martial
arts.
Translated, Taekwondo means "Art of the hand and foot", and
originally comes from Korea. Taekwondo is the world's largest martial
art and has roots based on techniques tested for thousands of years.
Athletic ability increases the longer the child takes the lessons. As
it does, the child's overall co-ordination continues to grow as does his
ability to defend himself. What begins as an odd assortment of unco-ordinated
movements soon turns into knowledge of self-defence that can last a lifetime.
