THE PROGRAMME
We teach children from 4-8 years old in this class, we focus on the core skills of :
concentration, focus, balance, coordination,
control, memory, and of course confidence.
Then we give the children a chance to practice them in class and show them how they can apply these skills at home,
or in school, in a good way.
At this age children are not interested in
‘learning’ Ju Jitsu;
but they don’t mind ‘playing’ Ju Jitsu.
Our Peaceful Warrior Programme has the development of the child at it’s core,
we develop skills and attitudes through structured games, making Martial Art’s fun and easy.
Children develop and learn in different ways to adults, and as such they need to be taught and shown things differently too.
Our Instructors follow carefully designed Lesson Plans which have been tried and tested to ensure that every class is filled with fun, fitness, martial arts and character development.
Our Instructors enjoy teaching nearly as much as the children enjoy training. The programme is designed to empower, so that they are confident and focused enough to go into the Samurai In Training Programme, continuing their Martial Arts journey with us.
THE CLASS
Is 45 minutes long - more than enough for the attention span and retention levels of the age group.
Each session has a warm-up, learning Martial Arts techniques, applying techniques through structured games, learning about martial virtues and japanese terminology, and meditation (sometimes guided)
Continual reinforcement is a neccesity,
for any skill aquisition : but more so for the peaceful warriors.
Repetition is desquised and the benefits pay off when children can competantly: perform martial arts skills, remember japanese terminology and moral virtues.
We create Peaceful Warriors,
not show-offs, agressive or rude 'fighters';
defence and development is our aim.
