Ages
5-12
AT SHAOLIN-DO
1- We teach
martial art techniques and principles first and foremost.
2- We teach that fitness and hard work are fun without all
the silly games.
3- We don't scream and yell at the kids and call it discipline.
4- We usually never have more than
4-5 kids with any one instructor!
5- Most of all, we treat your kids with the same care that I treat my own.
The rewards and benefits of martial art practice are too great for it to be just about trophies and little colored belts. We
take your children's future much more serious that that. They need to have fun while learning that hard work is its own reward
and good things only come with patience, perseverance and effort.

Guide link below... Philosophy and Goals
We understand the importance of finding quality programs for children, which is why we strive
to have one instructor for every 4 -5 children. The instructors enjoy teaching the children, and helping them to reach their
goals. As a program for young people, we hope to give them a good basis for fitness and the motivation to work hard for something
they want. We do not use a militaristic approach at Shaolin-Do but instead encourage mutual respect and self-discipline.
Elements That Make Kung Fu GOOD for Kids
First they have to
grow as a person in many ways. They must work hard on something and try to improve their performance over time. This teaches
that effort has its own rewards and that nothing comes without effort. They get a first hand education in the laws of cause
and effect. It is no stretch to say that this keeps kids out of trouble and moving toward life-success. So many young people
grow up and never learn that all actions (good or bad) lead to a specific outcome. While team sports teach this to a certain
extent, you still win or lose depending on the actions of the team. In life this is not really the case. Like your belt test
in my school, when you go out into the world as a young adult, you must stand alone and while Mom and Dad might be watching,
they can't really shout out the answers to you. How valuable is it to learn to rely upon yourself for success?
Second, the biggest barrier to people reaching for their dreams can be
boiled down to one word alone; FEAR. Fear of failure, humiliation, reasonability, embarrassment, or even the fear of succeeding.
Kids meet these types of fears every day in my school. They start to learn that action defeats fear. Preparation insures success.
Facing a fear
is scary, but possible, and that after it feels great. By the time these young students reach adulthood, they feel so empowered
that nothing stops them from reaching for their dreams. They look down and see that black belt around their waist and remember
that they have already proven themselves and their personal power. They have strengthened their will, flexed their inner-discipline
and mastered themselves in a way that many adults will never know. When I see a 8 year old child standing their enduring a
test of will and discipline that most adults wouldn't attempt, I realize that people better watch out when that 8 year
old grows up. They will be unstoppable. I wouldn't want to compete with that kid for a job in 10 years.
