KUNG FU FOR KIDS
6-12 years old
SHAOLIN KUNG FU
“ The greatest sign of success for a teacher... is to be able to say,
"The children are now working as if I did not exist."
Maria Montessori
With a Teacher that accomplished a bachelor in exercise and sport's science,
learning martial arts in this school is different from what you find in
many other schools.
The teacher is not just a martial arts instructor, but somebody that
has the knowledge of how teaching to kids should be, according to
their age and development stage.
Would you go to a doctor or a lawyer that doesn't have the degree?
So, why do you take your kid to teachers that don't know anything
about the psychology and development of a kid? Just because they
show experience and martial arts accomplishments?
The purpose of our school is not just to give some baby-sitting for few
hours at week;
not only, but your kid here is not going to learn just few punches and kicks,
but a real martial arts program and motor skills that are the base for any
other sport's activity.
Have you been in a martial arts school for over a year and your kid
is still not able to show you things he learned? Is the school asking you
more and more money?
Does the school make belt tests every week or month?
If the answer is Yes, maybe you have been or you are still going to
a "Mac Dojo", the kind of business that is not interested
in your kid learning, but in making money and maintain
your kid in school the longest possible.
In our school your kid will do not more than 4 sash tests a year,
but he/she will accomplish a lot more.
With our school your kid will be able to show to you what he/she
learned in a couple of months.
In our school a black sash is a real black sash....
The accomplishment shouldn't derive from the belt, but from their
learning and self-esteem. Otherwise you will
create future adults that are frustrated by not getting a promotion
on their job or having a nice car.....
Kids need to learn that what is important is the work they do to
to accomplish something and the
desire to accomplish their potential! That's the real winning attitude!
They need to learn how to be winners and happy people in their life!
Do you think a Gold medalist at the Olympic games gives importance
to the medal itself?
"Never give up on your dreams. Through perseverance and faith,
you can achieve your goals and realize your dreams"
Not only for self defense....
Shaolin is an Ancient Martial Arts with Forms, Self Defense Techniques,
Weapons Training. The Kids Program concentrates on
Flexibility Exercises,
Jumps and Acrobatics because this is the right age to
increase these skills.
Martial Arts, and in particular Shaolin Kung Fu, are founded on a transmission
of values which are very important at this age. Moreover, with Kung Fu, kids
improve their results at home, school, and in life. The classes are conducted in a
playful environment with some games and relaxed moments.
