Benefits of Kinder Karate
Physical activity is important in the development of a child’s health and wellbeing, forming the foundation of a healthy lifestyle. Through Kinder Karate skills and disciplines are learnt resulting in a challenging and enjoyable activity.
Kinder Karate improves fitness, strength, flexibility and general body conditioning in a structured format. This enables children to channel their energies into positive outcomes, improving mental discipline and concentration.
The Kinder Karate Program
Our Kinder Karate program introduces young children (ages 3-4) to karate training in a fun, structured setting.
Light exercises, stretching and karate basics are taught. Activities involve following the instructor’s directions, learning dojo (class room) etiquette and self-control. Games and exercises help to develop strength, coordination and balance, This class provides a foundation for karate training in our subsequent Peewee Karate (5-7 years) and Kids Karate (8-12 Years).
Once a month students are recognised for their efforts (based primarily on attendance) and awarded a coloured ‘belt badge’ There are nine coloured badges to collect and each colour follows the formal karate ranking system in the more senior classes.
