Kids (6 to 13)
At Bendu Academy, our Kids Program is tailored to creating a foundation for lifelong skills through the discipline of martial arts. Designed for children aged 6 to 13, our program is more than just an introduction to self-defense—it's a comprehensive approach to a movement art that fosters physical fitness, mental sharpness and emotional stability.
Our curriculum is carefully crafted to ensure that every child, regardless of age or skill level, finds a welcoming and productive environment. Through a series of engaging drills and age-appropriate techniques, we introduce our young champions to the basics of martial arts, focusing on the principles of balance, coordination, and agility. Our size and skill-matched sparring sessions offer children a chance to apply what they've learned in a safe, controlled and respectful setting - promoting healthy competition and personal development.
We believe that martial arts training is a powerful tool for teaching children the importance of dedication, hard work, and cooperation. We hope these values will extend beyond the dojo, positively influencing their life skills and self confidence. One of the key benefits of our program is the positive impact it can have on self-esteem. Children are encouraged to set personal goals, tackle new challenges, and celebrate their achievements - no matter how small. This process instills a sense of accomplishment and pride in self determination.
Our instructors are skilled at creating a supportive and nurturing environment where kids feel safe to express themselves, make friends, and become part of a community. Through team-building activities and group exercises, children learn the importance of supporting one another and working together towards common goals.
In regards to physical fitness, regular training improves cardiovascular health, builds strength, and enhances flexibility, setting children on the path to a healthy and active lifestyle. Our classes offer an excellent opportunity for children to channel their energy in a positive and self-fulfilling manner.
At Bendu Academy, we believe every child has the potential to be a champion. Our Kids Program is designed to help them unlock that potential. Whether your child is looking for a new hobby, a way to channel their energy, or a platform to shine, our Kids Class offers a rewarding and enriching experience that goes far beyond the mats. First classes are always free!
