Karate for Children

  • How can martial arts help my child?
  • Well, do you wish your child could focus more when she does her homework?
  • How about this, are they self motivated, or do you have to push them to do most things?
  • How about bullies, are they troubled by them?
  • Has your child got the YES I CAN attitude?
 

Dear Parent, my name is Stephen Thompson and I have been working with children like yours since 1991. Even though I have helped children that have gone on to accomplish wonderful things in Martial Arts, amongst them World Champions, my biggest joy is when a parent comes up to me and says what a difference Karate World has made in their child’s life.

Of course you probably already know, there are lots information out there on parenting, and a lot of people that give great advice on.

  • Getting your child to not only live – but live life to the fullest
  • Teach children responsibility, meaning that they are in control of their emotion – not the bully
  • Self Esteem? I am sure you would agree a child with low self esteem will ALWAYS be a target, as a child and adult.
  • Teaching children persistence to carry on and not quit when things get tough
  • Have the courage to do the right thing – at the right time

OK, the way I have made it sound is so simple, just get a book, read it, and presto – you have an unstoppable, confident child that will have the attitude to persist in everything they do and have the courage to step up, even when it may be a little scary, then know what they should do, and they take responsibility for it.

“If only it was that simple”? Well I have some great news, If you are willing to take a FREE TRIAL at one of my character building schools, you will get to see how we do it.

And all at no cost to you! - well there is a cost, your time, which is the most expensive thing you will ever own, but you will not be disappointed in spending this. We have parents spending their time with us, WHY, because we have proven success in HELPING THERE CHILDREN.

Of course, you could just carry on as you are, I am sure you are doing a great job. But, I have to ask you, could a Black Belt Instructor which is a Personal Development specialist help?

I have realised through my years of teaching children, just like yours, that parents love their children being great at martial arts, great at punching at kicking, but the real benefit to parents is, the way there children feel about themselves.

 
I am very happy with everything at Karate world. All the staff are wonderful and my daughter absolutely loves it!.

This is why, even though we teach great martial arts, that’s a given (hey, I have been a World Champion, fought all over the World, and have taught WORLD CHAMPIONS myself) our main focus is in ...... PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT!

WHY?

I do not want a child to be just great at kicking at punching, I WANT THEM TO BE outstanding in everything they do. Things like

  • Making the right friends
  • Confidence to put their hand up in class and answer questions
  • To know that if you show RESPECT, you will be treated with respect
  • If they want something, they can get it, with PERSONAL POWER

Now you may think, oh, my child is too young to learn this Personal Development stuff, well nothing could be further from the truth. What we do at Karate World is help you build a SOLID FOUNDATION, so your child can build whatever they want out of there life.

Can they get this kind of teaching anywhere else?

Well, we all recognise that such qualities as self-control, strong values, staying power and respect are valuable traits that always reward themselves, our society does not have A DEFINED SOCIAL SYSYTEM THAT WOULD BUILD THEM UP!

There is something that I totally believe, 100%, and that is.

"WHO YOU SURROUND YOURSELF WITH IS WHO YOU WILL BECOME"

I am sure you agree with me, nothing influences a child more than there peer group, but the problem is, it’s not ‘cool’ to honour you parent’s advice, and it’s totally not cool to stay up doing any kind of work (which, in itself, is a four letter word). Whether your grades are good or not has very little bearing on how you rank among other children.

But its “cool” to kick back, to stay up partying all night and to act like ‘everything you’re telling me is just blah-blah-blah’ because life is supposed to come to you on a silver platter. Right!

It takes a few hard knocks and years of experience to know that it never does. Nevertheless, our children’s culture is ignorant of this.

Now I am not saying that your child is like that, but I can guarantee they are surrounded by children like this at school, and a problem may come if they want to fit into that group, that peer group that is oh so destructive.

On the other hand the karate culture has been developing such social systems for thousands of years. The martial arts instructor has a “cool” image, children totally respect them, and at Karate World, we use this to help your child become the BEST THEY CAN BE.

 
My children have been Karate World students for 6 years, last year I finally decided to step up and take the plunge. The Instructors offers great enthusiasm in class that is second to none and we just keep coming back for more. To motivate yourself can sometimes be difficult but with his encouragement you keep on going and keep on trying, children and adults alike. Karate World cater for all ages and abilities, plus there is the added bonus of respect being shown and practiced throughout the academy and of course there is the fitness, confidence building and also this is something you can enjoy as a family Kaye W.

OK, I can hear you, “all this is easy to say, but when it comes down to it, martial arts is just another sport”. Of course you are right, if you have experience of another martial arts school, I am sure that is what they were teaching. And I believe there is nothing wrong in that, there are some great martial arts instructors out there if you want your child to just learn kicking and punching.

But at Karate World our whole focus is PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT, not just martial arts. In actual fact, even though we teach kickboxing, karate, kung fu, boxing, tae kwon do, the style that your child will be tested on is, MAARLISK. This is the unique style of martial arts that has been developed to teach your child life skills. It is an acronym for MARTIAL ARTS with LIFE SKILLS

"IT IS ONLY TAUGHT IN KARATE WORLD SCHOOLS "

 
My son has really benefited from Karate World. He has go much fitter and grown in confidence. Mr Ashton and his team are all fantastic with the children and keep in contact with parents. Its just excellent.

Karate has always been used by ancient cultures as a tool of building up one’s inner strengths.

“Karate World is not Merely a Martial Arts School”

Old Karate Masters are renowned for their abilities to conquer their fears and insecurities. You remember the film “Karate Kid”, where a young boy is being victimised by other children at school? In the film a wise old master teaches the boy martial arts, but more than that, he teaches him LIFE SKILLS. Of course he overcomes his fears and is a great feel good film.

So, if you would like more information on the way that we can help your child, and all at no cost, fill in the information box below and I will send you the relevant information.

 

One Last Thing

My Karate Instructors are not just that, they are LIFE COACHES and role models for your child to look up to and admire. Unfortunately in today’s society, the media makes people like 50 cent, Britney Spears and Amy Whitehouse role models. Posters of which are readily available for children to put on their bedroom wall. Now, I am not judging these people at all, but do we really want these to be there role models?

In Karate World classes, children learn to SEE THE VALUE of Self-Discipline, of Respect and of Perseverance.

The children have a

  • Great time in class
  • Learn to defend themselves
  • Get fit, stay fit, have fun keeping fit
  • Have a positive peer group, everyone is trying to be the best they can be

Ok, now you have two choices

  • 1. Do nothing
  • 2. Request more information

If you choose option two you will receive

  • More information on the closest school to you
  • Receive a gift certificate for a FREE ONE ON ONE CONSULTATION
  • Receive a gift certificate for a FREE MONTH OF CLASSES
  • Receive a BRAND NEW UNIFORM for FREE
  • A voucher for a FREE BIRTHDAY PARTY at your local school

You may ask, “giving all this away free, come on there must be a catch”.  Listen, I have been teaching children Character Development for many years, and I know one thing to be true.  Parents have been miss-informed.  My school is different to any other martial arts programmeme out there.  So because I know this, I want to make is SUPER EASY for you to just come in and have a look.


If Karate World is not for you, you will still receive our monthly newsletter which is filled with great advice and quotes to inspire you and your children.

 
Initially we were looking for a Karate school to help with our daughters confidence and since joining Karate World as a family, we have all seen an improvement in our confidence, fitness and general wellbeing. The instructors ensure that every class is enjoyable but also ensuring that we get a good work out. If any parent is considering enrolling their child I would highly recommend this school, my daughter has improved beyond all my expectations.
