Our Programs
Tiger Tots (Ages 4-7)
Tiger Tots learn to direct their limitless energy in positive ways. They develop skills to focus on a single task and see complex challenges through to completion. This is accomplished through fun activities that also help them build physical strength and coordination at the same time they are learning about mental discipline.
Martial Arts
Our group martial arts class adds more complex challenges and more active self-defense, including bully prevention. We begin to study the mental benefits and character development aspects of martial arts more directly, while of course ramping up the physical component to expand each student’s own physical boundaries.
Self Defense
Self-Defense seminars can be scheduled on an as-needed basis. Contact us regarding your needs today!
