We teach Self Defense for Kids here in Calgary. Classes are divided into 5 to 8 year olds and 9 to 11 years olds. From 12 and up, children can start training in Adult classes.
For the young children, although there is an active and fun aspect, teaching basic skills, classes are aimed much more in the direction of safety and awareness, strangers, what to do when lost, how to escape if necessary and generally making children aware of some of the possible dangers without scaring them.
As they move from the Self Defense for kids into the Junior classes (9+), there are more technical skills to learn and at the same time teaching respect and discipline.
Children start to learn some of the benefits of health and fitness, whilst maintaining a real fun atmosphere. Fun is an essential aspect of learning, it is also essential to ensure they continue to maintain an interest.
There is so much more to Self Defense for Kids than simply teaching Martial arts.
At the moment we are based in SW Calgary but as we continue to grow, we will have many more options available.If you are interested in Self Defense for Kids or just in finding out more then do not hesitate to Contact Us.
