Many of our students start out a little shy or unsure. Our instructors specialize in helping young children feel comfortable, confident, and successful from their very first class.

Designed Specifically for Younger Students

 

Our Little Champions program is designed specifically for children ages 5 and 6.

At this stage, kids are developing focus, coordination, and confidence. Our classes use structured activities to help students follow directions, stay engaged, and work as part of a team.

Classes are positive, fast-paced, and designed to keep young students learning while having fun.

The Little Champions 8 Skill System
 

Our Little Champions curriculum focuses on eight age-appropriate skills that help children grow both on and off the mats.

Each class focuses on one or more of these skills — and we explain them to students and parents as they train.

FOCUS

Learning to pay attention and stay engaged.

TEAMWORK

Learning to cooperate and support classmates.

CONTROL

Developing self-control and body awareness.

BALANCE

Building coordination and stability.

MEMORY

Following instructions and remembering sequences.

DISCIPLINE

Learning respect, responsibility, and effort.

FITNESS

Developing strength, endurance, and healthy habits.

COORDINATION

Improving how the body moves and reacts.

We also highlight these skills during class for parents, so you’ll hear instructors reference them as students train.
