We realize children this age have specific characteristics that differ from children younger and older than them. They’re sharper and more focused than children 6 and under, but, they’re still not quite ready to face the same challenges presented to children 10 to 12-years old. Although some children between the ages of 7 - 9 can keep up with older kids, the average 7 to 10 year old can benefit from a more specific type of training that will help them develop the best; physically, intellectually, emotionally, and socially.
Like our Little Ninjas program, our Karate Kidz program for 7 through 9 year olds is also an age-appropriate, age-specific program. This is also our transition program from a purely developmental program to a traditional self defense program. It uses a combination of higher level physical and mental concepts like concentration, courage and perseverance to get them ready for our traditional youth self defense program. When they graduate Karate Kidz, they’ll enter the youth program as an advanced student and continue to work toward earning their junior blackbelt. Its been our experience that children that graduate from Karate Kidz to the youth program are better prepared than children that enroll directly into the youth program.
