5 Reasons why your kids should JOIN Karate classes
|
Building Self-Discipline
Karate helps children focus on self-discipline, in today's world of instant gratification there are few opportunities for parents today to give their kids the chance to learn about the importance of qualities like self-restraint and discipline. These qualities are necessary for progression in the sport of Karate. Boosting Social Skills Karate can help children who find it difficult to thrive in social environments, being in a room with peers who are learning and going through the same positive experience that is learning a new sport can help them develop social bonds and work on skills that they will need to have a successful social life. Encouraging Physical Activity Karate requires physical exertion, it limits screen time for kids addicted to iPads and computers! Physically demanding, Karate is a great pastime to disturb physically sedentary lifestyles in an enjoyable way that leaves kids with a sense of achievement! |
Increased Self-Esteem
Achievement breeds confidence and Karate is no different, your child's self-esteem grows with every move they master and every belt they earn. Imagine the look on your child's face when they come home after earning a new belt! This confidence and self-esteem grows as time progresses. Instilling a sense of Respect In any of the Martial Arts disciplines, respect and reverence for your instructor is unflinching and a fundamental aspect of the sport. Today's culture does not necessarily leave our children with respect for authority or adults, however when your child enrols in Karate, they will learn respect with every new move as a necessary precondition to earn their next belt! |
