Phoenix Parents Secret to Happier, Healthier, Confident Kids

Children’s Program




Every child will gain confidence and enthusiasm while having a great time at each USA MARTIAL ARTS PHOENIX class they attend.


Our Phoenix AZ Children's Martial Arts program is a fun and engaging class emphasizing the development of coordination and skills to improve focus of school aged children.  Our "First Time Listener" program gets immediate and lasting results so parents don't have to repeat themselves 5 times!   The USA MARTIAL ARTS Phoenix program is designed for all personality types: shy children will become more assertive and comfortable in social situations; high energy children will become better at redirecting “those feelings” and responding to direction and structure.



Confident and Enthusiastic Children with Good Manners
The lessons we focus on at USA MARTIAL ARTS PHOENIX will help your kids enter the community with a more confident and positive outlook. They will become stronger students at school, focussed listeners at home and more enthusiastic about their future. We believe the time between the ages of 3 to 7 years old are some of the most critical stages of a child’s development. However we recognize that 3 and 4 year olds have different developmental needs than the older 5 to 7 year olds. Our Pre-school Childrens TAEKWONDO and KIDS KARATE program will enhance positive development for our youngest children to our oldest in a fun and encouraging way.

Quick Tip for Increasing Kids Confidence


Here is a Quick Tip for Increasing Kids Confidence
Would Your Child Benefit From More Confidence?

The secret is out. Most parents now know the power that martial arts has to increase children's confidence and improve their self image.  In this article I will reveal a way to instantly see and feel a difference in the confidence of your child.

One of the secrets that martial arts has been using for years is the attention stance.  Here's why:

1. It improves posture
2. It helps evoke a feeling of pride and strength
3. It centers the mind and body
4. The eyes focus
5. Breathing improves from the diaphragm
6. It exercises self discipline
7. It exercises self control
8. It projects a positive self image to others
9. It promotes a feeling of being anchored
10. It improves first impressions

Practicing the attention stance has many benefits.  That's why military forces around the world use it to train soldiers.  Most of all, it is a way to practice standing tall, which influences a child's state-of-mind and being.  With practice, it improves, much like exercising a muscle.  Soon people notice the eye contact at first impressions, the good posture with shoulders back, chest up and a confident demeanor.  The position itself projects confidence and a centeredness that puts others at ease.

One lesson I learned from a wise Grand Master was that he insisted his children stand up to attention when either parent came home and be offered a polite greeting of the day.  Today his children are respected and known for being well mannered, confident individuals.  Additionally, they are highly successful in their fields.  Practice makes habit!

Help! My child needs more confidence! - PART THREE



Action Plan
It’s not very useful to tell a child to avoid a bully if you can’t tell the child how to do so.
Children need to understand there is a very specific course of action to be taken in dangerous situations.
Does your child know exactly what to do if he or she is being harassed by a bully? Do they know what to do if approached by a stranger?
If you have specific instructions, discuss them with your child on occasion. In cases like this, knowledge is power indeed.
It’s one thing to hold the keys to helping your child build confidence. It’s another thing, though, to start the motor and make it happen.
Many of these time-tested principles are difficult for parents to implement alone. They take time, effort and constant reinforcement.
Here’s where martial arts can help. The group dynamics, our positive approach and our strong moral code help foster the skills that will last a lifetime.
Martial Arts builds confidence
If your child is shy, it might be hard to imagine him or her putting on a uniform, stepping onto the mat and learning martial arts.
Martial arts instructors understand this fear and can turn such experiences into powerful lessons of empowerment.
Martial arts instructors undergo extensive training. They know how to build an excellent rapport by offering plenty of praise and encouragement.
It is their job to bring out the best in every child.
Martial Arts deters bullies
Martial arts schools teach children exactly how to make the bullying stop — and it doesn’t involve fighting. Martial arts builds confidence.
Along with the martial arts skills, children learn how to deflect verbal and physical confrontation through role-playing exercises and guidelines.
Martial arts students learn how to be in control during such situations – so on the playground, bullies get the message.
Confident, strong and happy — We all have a strong vision of how we want our children to turn out.
The decisions we make today have great bearing on our children’s futures. A child who is insecure today is susceptible to negative peer pressure in the future.
Martial arts provide positive experiences for children, and offers tangible goals and rewards that help them stay focused.
Having strong, positive role models – from the instructors to the higher-ranking students – helps reinforce the values parents are working to teach at home.
We call it a Black-Belt attitude. It is both our goal – and our code of conduct.
If you’d like to learn more about how martial arts can improve your child’s self-confidence, please contact us.
If your child has low self-esteem or little confidence, martial arts training offers a great environment to help them build the confidence they will need to succeed at school and in life.
FOCUS & Confidence truly are two of the keys to Success in Life.
Children who train in the martial arts learn powerful focus and concentration skills that translate into better grades and better kids!
