Phoenix Martial Arts School Specializes in Teaching Children & Building Confidence


Kids Love Martial Arts - Parents Love The Lessons
Karate Kids Taekwondo Children Kung Fu Fun

More than your typical corner Karate dojo, soccer or kids after school activity, a new program is catching on with Phoenix kids and their parents.  

KIDS LOVE MARTIAL ARTS is a personal development children's enrichment program that uses martial arts as a tool for developing self esteem, self-discipline, focus and coordination.  However, what makes it really different is that the learning is fun!  

"Nobody sits on a bench in our children's program.  Every kid is treated like a champion and future Black Belt.  Unlike other programs, they actually have to earn rank here but we equip kids with the tools they need to achieve and succeed.  They learn to love working hard and enjoying the benefits that come from good habits and a positive attitude." says owner John Nottingham

The Kids Love Martial Arts concept is unique in that it emphasizes universal benefits while offering high standards for martial arts instruction.  It's certainly not a commercialized belt factory or pay for a belt as you go program.  They still hold back students if not ready, do old fashioned push ups, break boards and even have rules strict rules for parents on the sidelines.    

Children in our program learn about their potential and discover their gifts through hard work.  We do not agree with the lowering of standards in the name of self-esteem, nor do we advocate the Drill Sergeant approach.  Sure some parents don't like us, but we take it as a badge of honor.  We're not for everyone.  We're advocates for the kids, not for bad parenting.  It isn't just about making money to us, this is our mission.", said Nottingham, 6th Degree Master Instructor.

Nottingham and his Phoenix based martial arts school staff must be doing something right having produced numerous champions in martial arts as well as in life.   The program's success is based on Nottingham's experience as a former soldier and in teaching over 10,000 students with his staff.  "You learn a lot if you pay attention to results. Parents and teachers notice.", he says.  

Parents can take advantage of a WEBSPECIAL and get a free uniform right now.

Phoenix Martial Arts School Builds Children's Minds and Bodies

Children love learning at USA Martial Arts in Phoenix, AZ. Our martial arts programs are high-energy, fun and interactive.
The primary objective of the Phoenix Martial Arts school is to build children's confidence, wich we do by acknowledging, recognizing and rewarding not just our student's accomplishments and successes, but their efforts as well.

But our focus goes far beyond just learning physical techniques and martial arts skills. At USA Martial Arts Phoenix, we use martial arts as a tool to develop solid character and life-enhancing skills in each man, woman and child.

Life Lessons Through Martial Arts Phoenix
Classes at our Phoenix Martial Arts School begin and end with group discussions and role-playing exercises. We emphasize character lessons and discuss alternate resolutions to conflict, anger management, bully prevention, verbal and emotional self-defense and other issues that children face today. These issues are discussed in a positive, affirming and non-threatening way.
Children pay close attention as we teach topics that include:
  • Avoiding conflicts peacefully
  • Dealing with bullies constructively
  • Mental & Emotional self-defense
  • Proper respect for adults and elders

Why Choose USA Martial Arts North Phoenix Scottsdale?



WHY CHOOSE US
The key in choosing a martial arts school is finding one that can motivate students to actually stick with it—martial arts are not quick or easy. We believe that convenience, professionalism, flexibility of memberships, proven curriculum, and atmosphere are crucial elements in supplying this motivation.

The most difficult thing when getting started in martial arts is taking the first step. We’ve worked to make this incredibly easy and very educational. Many schools will offer a free class or two, perhaps a free week and then expect you to sign up for a lengthy membership. We don’t believe that is enough time to get to know a school, the instructors, and staff. We’ve discovered that at least a month of trial time offers the perfect amount of time. Our EasyTrial offers the perfect no-obligation way to try USA Martial Arts—we’ll work with you to identify good days and times from our convenient class schedule.

On average we tend to offer many more class times than other schools. We focus heavily on our scheduling and work to supply convenient options while still maintaining a productive instructional environment. We’ve also tried to make our membership options equally convenient. While many schools offer only long-term annual memberships USA Martial rts offers both annual (which offer savings) and month-to-month options that allow you to cancel at any time—we believe that much in our programs.

Our core offerings of traditional Taekwondo classes for adults, families, and children are goal oriented and motivational. We offer classes Monday through Saturday from early day to late evening that are typically about 50 minutes long. Join us for classes and discover the benefits of study with USA Martial Arts. In addition to our traditional Taekwondo programs we have developed specialized, martial art based, youth programs for our younger students. Programs such as our A+ AfterSchool program and SummerCamp program offer members a constructive option for children.

It’s our members who often tell us that, among other things, the atmosphere at USA Martial Arts distinguishes us from others. We believe in supplying members a professional, inviting, and family oriented atmosphere—a place where students and families feel at home. Although we honor martial art traditions that go back centuries, we are dynamic and constantly seek new and innovative ways to teach and service our members.

Why Become a Student of USA Martial Arts Paradise Valley


Why Become a Student of USA Martial Arts Paradise Valley

A better working body - a sharper, more focused mind - a stronger sense of self confidence - more self discipline - the ability to physically defend yourself - who wouldn't want these things for themselves?
Practicing martial arts at USA  USA Martial Arts in Phoenix, AZ is about physical fitness, character development (self esteem, self confidence, focus and concentration, self discipline) and self defense - not just kicking and punching.
People often think that martial arts is about fighting but that's not what we emphasize at Phoenix PV Martial Arts. Instead, we focus on the personal development aspects of martial arts because that's why most people participate.
Almost half of the 6 million participants in martial arts are children ages 6-17, according to statistics from the Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association.* And it's not unusual for the whole family to get involved; one-third of the students are women, many of them moms.
No matter what discipline of martial arts you choose, whether it is karate, kung fu, taekwondo, jujitsu, judo, aikido tai chi, kendo or another one of the many forms of martial arts, the styles may differ but the benefits remain the same.
Universal Benefits of Martial Arts
For a list of specific benefits for various age groups, visit the adult and children's program pages on this site. But here are some universal benefits of martial arts:
Improved physical fitness: Make no mistake: Martial arts is a great workout! It is a total body workout - your stamina, muscle tone, flexibility, balance and strength will all show signs of improvement.
Enhanced self esteem: By learning these skills and improving your physical condition, you become more comfortable in all situations - whether you're indanger or simply doing a task that takes you beyond your comfort zone. Kids have a new sense of self-confidence, making them virtually "bully proof."
Increased focus and concentration: From the very first day of class, students are challenged to think as much as they act. Learning the forms and movements reinforces working memory. That's why the Mayo Clinic specifically counts the marital arts of karate and taekwondo among the effective therapies for ADD and ADHD.
Increased social skills: Martial arts strongly emphasize self discipline and self control as a core component of its teachings. Self leadership and the ability to deal with others in a mature way is the result.
Stress relief: Kicking, punching and screaming are a great release, no matter what your age.
Respect for values: Honesty, courtesy, integrity, perseverance and excellence are some curriculum areas of focus. These qualities help both children and adults become great leaders.
Our mission at Scottsdale PV USA Martial Arts is building strong minds and bodies, and our students range in age from 4 to 84. Please take advantage of our Try Us Out offer and experience the many benefits of martial arts!
