Discover Why Parents Everywhere Are Turning To Kids Marital Arts Classes To Build Better Children….

Confident Kids Stand Strong

In Society many parents are struggling to teach their children the value of discipline, work ethic and overall raising their self esteem to a healthy, positive level. Thanks to the media and even peers, children are overwhelmed with negativity across the world, whether it’s pertaining to an athlete on steroids, a celebrity having to go to rehab for drug abuse, or even the war halfway around the world. All of these issues take a toll on our children and it’s up to the parent to help guide them from all this negativity. In reality, it’s a struggle for a parent because there are so many outside factors that a parent cannot control and it ultimately relies on the child and on how that child interprets, relates and learns from certain situations. So at times a parent may need assistance to instill these positive and character building morals in their child.

There are many avenues that a parent may take to give their child the confidence and determination they need to grow into a healthy individual. Extracurricular activities like team sports and clubs may be a good direction to steer. One issue to be aware of is your child’s well-being and how he or she takes in a new environment whether it’s athletic, social or academic. Something like basketball can be good for your child, but what if your child is not the all star and is not getting proper attention from their coaches and gets lost amongst the team. If this occurs, it might hinder the child’s confidence and lower the child’s self esteem. This may follow with academic and social clubs as well. Nobody wants this for their child, would you?

2.     Build Socialization Skills – At first, a child may find it difficult to “fit in” in a social crowd at times; more than often the child may find it easier to be more social and more charismatic in martial arts. A martial arts environment gives the child the opportunity to meet new people and the ability to make new friends. The reason this may be, is because the child is in an environment that each child can relate to in class as well as directed by an instructor to give them simple goals to obtain among themselves and with each other.

3.     Positive and Fun Physical Activity – Thanks to technology and social media, children are becoming lazier through activities like Facebook, video games and what not.

Having your child join martial arts will do just that, yes your child will be off the couch and on a mat taking part in fun physical activities. These activities range from various exercises, drills and even games that will get your child moving and having fun.

4.     Goal Setting – It is important to have goals and to strive for them. Even if a child comes up short,  it builds character and on top of character it provides motivation to complete something. In martial arts there are various rankings in stripes, colored belts, tests and competition that your child can shoot for. The ultimate goal is to work for your black belt, but in between your child may develop a goal to reach that brings them a step closer to their black belt. Goal setting has a great impact when shaping a child’s life because it gives them self awareness and discipline to complete a task, that goes a long way in life.

5.     Higher Self-Esteem – Martial arts gives children the opportunity to accomplish great feats, whether it’s to compete at a tournament or earn a higher belt in x amount of time. When the child is able to do so it builds confidence and self awareness that they are bettering themselves. Instructors recognize their students for their actions on and off the mat as well as what they retain during their classes. When a child develops the ability to master a certain move, go up in rank or compete at a higher level, the child’s self-esteem grows.

6.     Learn Respect – It is vital for a child to develop respect for others and most of all themselves. In martial arts, respect is key because a child needs to obtain this attribute for their instructors and peers in order to learn and develop new skills.

7.     Non-Violent Conflict Resolution – Martial arts does not promote violence and in reality it teaches a child to use self defense as a final resort. Your child will learn how to avoid violent conflict as well as how to react in a calm and resolved manner when faced in a hostile environment. There are various techniques and exercises that a child may learn and use to make any situation non-violent.

Studies have shown that 9 out of 10 bully situations could be avoided if the victim had self confidence. That’s right, bullies prey on low self esteem and other children that have a lack of confidence within them. That’s why martial arts is vital because your child will develop these skills in the first place.
