YOUTH TRAINING

Our Youth Martial Arts Program (8 -12 years of age) was designed specially for children in that specific age group. We realize that children in each of this age group have specific characteristics that differ from children younger than them. This group has its own range of development and characteristics.  Our youth program allows students to benefit from a more specific type of training that will help them develop the best; physically, intellectually, emotionally, and socially.

The stages of development for children have been extensively studied. Research targeted advanced skills that children of these age groups are in the process of developing primary skills and characteristics. At Premier Martial Arts we have uniquely divided that research into what we define as 6 characteristics of a champion and the 12 life skills of excellence.

In our Youth Martial Arts program your child will learn and grow in a process that accommodates their skills and abilities. They will train with other children in their age group, and not have to be distracted by younger classmates. This means that their training will not be slowed down due to the learning abilities of a younger child.  This means better, more functional classes designed just for them. Your child will feel comfortable and more capable of achieving excellence. They are at an age where the more special they feel, the harder they will try. With that in mind, welcome to the difference at Premier Martial Arts.

The physical aspects of our teaching curriculum are divided in the categories that follow:

Basic Training Program - This is a twelve month program that teaches the students the basic martial arts and self defense techniques including blocks, punches, kicks, and stances. It is a program that allows us to teach the student how to be martial artists, developing them to be a black belt from the inside out.

Black Belt Training Program - This program teaches our students not only the basics of martial arts, but all of the techniques that are necessary to one day become a black belt. This curriculum teaches them all of the striking techniques, patterns, self defense techniques, basic weapons training like the single stick, staff and nunchucku, sparring games and drills, re-breakable boards, needed to become a black belt.
