Structured Learning through Playful Engagement
Our Little Ninjas programme is specially designed for young children, combining kickboxing techniques with engaging activities to boost confidence, self-discipline, and coordination. Each 45-minute class is packed with a variety of exercises and playful challenges that keep kids entertained and inspired. Following a WAKO-endorsed curriculum, children advance through belt levels, gaining not only martial arts skills but also key values like respect and perseverance. This nurturing environment helps your child grow both physically and mentally, providing a positive space for them to excel.
Emphasizing Character Development
At this stage, we place a strong emphasis on character development alongside physical training. Each belt represents not only a new skill level but also a core life value such as respect, discipline, and perseverance. Through consistent practice and positive reinforcement, children learn the importance of these values and how they apply both in class and everyday situations. Parents often notice improvements in their child’s behavior and attitude as a result.
Tailored Curriculum for Optimal Growth
Our age-appropriate syllabus is specifically designed for children aged 4-6, guiding them from their first steps in martial arts all the way to achieving their black belt. The curriculum includes a mix of fundamental techniques and gradually more complex combinations, matched to their developmental stage. This tailored approach ensures that every child can progress confidently, with each new belt marking an exciting milestone in their kickboxing journey.
Creating a Supportive Community
We believe that martial arts is more than just physical training; it’s about creating a sense of community and belonging. Our classes are not just a place to learn kickboxing, but also a space where young children can make friends, build social skills, and feel supported by both their peers and instructors. This nurturing environment encourages children to push their limits and develop a positive, can-do attitude towards all aspects of life.
