Little Ninjas
Kid's Classes
Bully-proofing, focus and friendships. Kids train Muay Thai kickboxing, BJJ and wrestling toward real belt-ranking milestones.
Protecting our children is one of the number one concerns any parent ever has, but we can't be there for them at every moment. Getting them to train martial arts may be the best solution to this problem. We of course want to bully proof them so that they can defend themselves if they are ever physically attacked, but beyond that, we want them mentally ready to overcome all of life's challenges.
This is one thing that Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai kickboxing, wrestling and Mixed Martial Arts can all help us with, whether big or small. Children's martial arts can teach them to face adversities and use their will to overcome problems.
The confidence and self-discipline dedicated martial artists have is truly intangible, and these are some traits commonly seen in our students who train at Modern Martial Arts Center. All of these things require patience, focus and attention — virtues which are sometimes lacking in a fast-paced digital world.
Whilst martial arts are largely about self-improvement, they also teach us to work with others. The social element of training is undeniable. For kids, studies have shown that practicing even a couple of times a week can benefit their concentration spans, communication skills, self-regulation, cognitive function and postural control.
When lives are more sedentary and childhood obesity is extremely high, fun sports like Muay Thai kickboxing or Brazilian Jiu Jitsu can give your child the impetus to get active, build coordination and flexibility, all the while giving them both self defence and conflict resolution techniques.
We follow the traditional Brazilian Jiu Jitsu belt ranking system, as well as the BANG Muay Thai belt ranking system, which give your children milestones to work towards.
Due to the popularity of our kids martial arts programs, space is very limited and we are currently placing interested members on a waiting list. To inquire about availability or add your child to a waiting list, please email mmacenteryxe@gmail.com.
