Our Junior Champions train in techniques from Taekwondo, and Karate giving them a good balance of kicking techniques and hand techniques. In addition, they learn self-defense techniques from Aikido and ground techniques from Jiu- Jitsu. That being said, the core curriculum is Taekwondo and they learn World Taekwondo Federation forms and One-Steps as part of their testing process.
Highly Trained Nationally Certified Instructors:
Our instructors are the best in the business and have gone through hundreds of hours of training in teaching methodology, age-appropriate drills and skills, and personal development. Our Instructors go through extensive training and testing before they are able to teach and guide children in the classroom. Once they have qualified for their nationally recognized certification from IIMAA, they are required to continue their training and constantly upgrade their skills.
Our Junior Champion classes are based on the core values of Martial Arts training. "Martial Arts Begins and Ends With Respect." From this basic concept, we develop your child's awareness and skills in three primary areas: Respect, Discipline and Self Control. Our core curriculum includes hi-energy drills and skills designed to build and condition each child's attitude, behavior and overall character development. Our training instills confidence through positive coaching, lot's of encouragement and a powerful mentoring relationship with role model leaders. We also teach valuable life skills that focus on Goal-Setting, positive attitude, relationship building, communication skills and leadership.
Safety Awareness and Practical Self-Defense
Safe kids make for happy parents. Kids tend to listen to people they like, trust and respect. Our highly trained teaching staff will share vital safety tips and teach your child practical self-defense. Most important is that your child understands some simple rules of safety. They will learn tips such as safety in numbers and learning to practice safe habits in their daily routine. Knowledge is power; we provide an explanation of common abduction lures and teach kids to be cautiously aware of their surroundings. No parent wants their child to live in fear, yet they want to know that their child is safe. We believe strongly in helping your child become confident and capable young adults who understand right from wrong and will know when to stand their ground and when to run-yell-tell. We also stress non-violent conflict resolution, how to avoid dangerous situations and practical techniques for getting away from a range of situations being cornered, being grabbed and being tackled to the ground. Our practical self-defense skills include karate and on the ground grappling defense. Your child will be trained when and when not to use their self defense skills, and our students have a clear understanding of being responsible for their actions and attitudes.
Kids who learn to defend themselves usually will never have to. They have learned to walk with confidence and they are less apt to be a prime target for bullies and/or abductors. Studies prove that anyone who wants to harm a child or has ill intent is more likely to go for the weakest looking kid they can find. Kids that are aware and act in a more confident manner are the greatest deterrent to bullies and dangerous adults. Kids who train in the Martial Arts become more assertive and less aggressive. Just like Adults, if they have a healthy outlet for their energy, they will let go of stress and frustrations. Kids with a high level of self-confidence are also better able to deal with negative peer pressure and "Say No" to dangerous situations and threatening adults.
Competition
In addition to all of the above benefits; our Junior Champions train for competition in Sparring, Breaking and Forms at all levels. Impact is a member of the AAU and USA Taekwondo giving us the opportunity to send our students to all major championships. Our students will attend Taekwondo and Karate championships!
