The basics of martial arts

For the first year children will learn the basics of martial arts. The session will cover the following subject:

1. We start the class with the Student Creed that is a promise child will make to herself or himself: “I will develop myself in a positive manner and avoid anything that main reduce my mental growth or physical health…” 
2. Warm up part teaches children different type of exercises and develops they awareness of body movements (star-jumps for cardio and stamina building, push-ups for arm strength so we can push that bully away, sit ups for core, and squats for legs for those awesome running flying kicks). Stretches are based on the same idea implementing some yoga to calm children minds before the martial art training.
3. Then we start our martial art training that is based around the Word of the Week (like Respect) and T.I.P. (training incentive programme) stripe (Focus, Coordination, Control, Balance, Fitness, Team work, Memory or Self-discipline). There are 4 core topic we teach to Little Dragons:
   • Kick boxing - develops your child's focus, control and balance during pad work training. Children are learning not just how to punch and kick but also rules of appropriate training.
   • Flight training - develops your child's coordination, balance and flexibility during the practice of pop up, jumping and running flying kicks.
   • Partner training – teaching your child to mirror and monitor will prepare him or her for success. We all know how important is the body language - mirroring is used when we are accepting other people, monitoring is used when we are arguing or trying to prove our point more aggressively. Head covers, body covers, leg covers, footwork reinforcement and pad holding techniques will help your child to understand mirroring and monitoring.
   • Self-defence – this is about the confidence to say “No”, “Stop”, “Back off”. Push the bully away, getting out of grabs, safety on the street, playground, school and other public places, Stranger Danger Programme and Bully-proof Programme is part of the self-defence curriculum.
4. The cool down is the last part of the class. at this secion children are taught how to calm down - correct breathing, stretching. This is the last 5 minutes of the class when we discus what children have learnt during the class.

Black Belt Weapon training

The Basic class is 30 minutes long. Afterwards we have a Weapon session for extra 15 minute for children ages 5+ however it is invitation based only. Those children who have been invited will learn the following weapon: Nunchaku, Escrima, Bo – long pole and Broadsword. Weapon training is designed to teach children how to perform in front of audience and develop the spatial awareness when carrying or using the weapon. There are 3 rules about weapon training:

1. The child must ask a permission (at home to parents, at martial art school to instructor);
2. Child must make sure there is lots of space to train with weapon (we don't play with weapons as they are not a toy);
3. Child is not allowed to hit anyone or anything.
