“I cannot say
enough about the positive role
martial arts has had in my son's
life…
| ...A
few months before his 12th birthday, my son earned his blackbelt. This
achievement has filled him with pride and a sense of accomplishment. Now
a teenager, I am so proud of the young man he has become - one who is a
good citizen, has a healthy self esteem, practices leadership and
discipline, and understands how setting and achieving goals leads to
success. I credit the training in martial arts that he receives from
FEAR KNOT as playing a significant role in who he is becoming as a
person. For my husband and me, it is a challenge and an investment that
is priceless, and one that I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone who
wants to see their sons or daughters succeed in life.”

Change your child’s life - Forever!
Dear
Parent,
I
know, you’re probably thinking that’s a pretty ambitious statement. You're
probably also asking yourself, “How will martial arts training help my
child”? Well, I’ll tell you how.
My
name is Keith Wilkes and I often hear these kinds of stories from the parents of
our students. As the founder of FEAR KNOT Martial Arts For Kidz, my goal has
been to expose as many as possible to the life changing benefits of martial arts
training. Since opening our first school in 1998, our instructors have nurtured
children just like yours using the tools found only in martial arts.
Specializing
in children’s character development, our
programs were specifically designed for the stages of development of 3 & 4,
5 & 6, 7 - 9 and 10 -
12 year olds.

In our schools, any technical martial arts
training for our younger students is very limited when it comes to traditional
moves and techniques. We reserve that portion of development for the older
children who have a clear foundation of what we consider the preliminary
requirements to martial arts training. These foundations are laid out in our
children’s programs
Martial
arts training extends way beyond kicking and punching.
That’s why it may appear that our students aren’t learning enough martial
arts in class, but the fact is they really are. Discipline is the foundation of
martial arts. This includes standing at attention when commanded, responding
with respect by saying “yes sir” and “yes ma’am”, bowing to the flags
and each other and maintaining a positive attitude. With professional martial
artists as the role-model instructors, and the mixture of fun games and
activities with basic kicks, strikes, and blocks during class, a
child’s first exposure to martial arts training will generate results!
| “Sarah
has always been very quiet and reserved – Definitely not a risk taker.
I was looking for something to help her out of that “shell”. The
classes and instructors at FEAR KNOT have definitely helped boost her
confidence. Although she’s still quiet, she’s starting to make new
friends and take risks. She truly loves her classes and never wants to
miss them. FEAR KNOT does a great job of recognizing individual needs
and differences. They help each child grow in the areas that they need
help in the most. They genuinely seem to care about each individual
child.” Nadine

Discipline,
self control and confidence are the three most common areas parents are looking
for improvement in their children. And what parent wouldn’t? These three areas
are the cornerstone of a life of success and happiness. A disciplined child
becomes a disciplined adult. A child who learns to control their behavior is
more likely to not get caught up in the problems plaguing many teenagers and
young adults these days. A child who gains confidence is able to stand up for
themselves and not be swayed by peer pressure into destructive behavior.
Remember,
its not just about kicking, punching and blocking. FEAR
KNOT Martial Arts For Kidz teaches character development. A short
time after beginning classes, we’ve found that our students typically improve
their ability to focus, their grades and their behavior. But
don’t just take my word for it. Your chance to find out what really goes on at
FEAR KNOT Martial Arts For Kidz is to stop by and check out a class for
yourself.
Come
and see for yourself how our
programs will change your child forever.

“The
past two years at FEAR KNOT have provided for my son a real improvement
in his formerly poor physical coordination. His self-discipline is also
significantly better. He has more control of himself physically and
mentally. When he slacks off in some area in life I always ask him
"is this how you behave at FEAR KNOT?" FEAR KNOT has given him
a securely anchored, disciplined area of his life. I use that to extend
self-control into other parts of his life. It's working. By the way,
he's also had fun and made friends.
The
benefits of FEAR KNOT did not come easy. My son has worked hard and I
had to push him through a slump when he wanted to quit. He triumphed
over that problem about six belts ago and is doing better than ever. I'm
very pleased that this program was available right there in my town and
we're definitely continuing on”. Floyd

All this comes while learning to “kick, block and punch”. But what really
happens is your child’s biggest challenge won’t come from learning how to
beat up the neighborhood bully or throw that perfect kick. Instead it’ll come
from the most destructive force in your child’s life; self doubt and their own
fears.
It’s
the internal message they repeat to themselves every day:
“I’m
not good enough.”
“I don’t deserve to be happy.”
“I’ll never be able to do this.”
“Nobody likes me.”
The
question for you is, how can you help your child overcome their doubts, fears,
and, even if you could, their own fear to simply ask you for help?
Well,
I have the answer for you. The solution has been proven time after time at FEAR
KNOT Martial Arts For Kidz. Its lessons your child can learn quicker and easier
than you think.
The
solutions are contained in our Children’s
Character Development Programs. The programs that focus on developing a
student’s ability to handle today’s challenges with the tools taught in each
and every class. Let me repeat myself:

Martial
Arts training isn’t just about learning to kick, block and punch.
Its
not just another activity for your child.
Its
about personal development; learning how to overcome the challenges every child
faces today;
developing the ability to overcome their internal fears; unleashing that
powerful, unstoppable force within them.
This
strength will give your child the ability to become the goal oriented, driven to
succeed, successful, happy adult you want them to be. This is what FEAR KNOT
Martial Arts For Kidz’ programs can do for your child!
