Junior Martial Arts Class
Children aged 7 - 13 can join our junior martial arts class, 19.00 - 19.45 on Friday evenings (term time).
The aim is to improve our students' self confidence, fitness, self control and agility; while developing their ability to defend themselves. Scenarios considered range from abduction by an adult to attacks by bullies at school.
Students are taught techniques from karate, judo and aikido, which enable them to: fall safely; trip; throw; pin; hold down; strike or block strikes from an aggressor.
Emphasis is on learning techniques by working co-operatively with the other class members and not on developing aggression or competition.
Students work towards belts, awarded by the club, based on their knowledge, experience and technical skill.
