Tiny Tigers



The Impact Martial Arts strives to instill personal discipline, confidence, focus, total fitness and self-defense abilities in our kids. Our training system has been designed to help kids stay motivated and feel good about their progress. tinytigers1
   
   
tingtigers2 We believe our Instructors have such impact with the children that they must have specific training in the skills of goal setting and motivation, so each one is fully trained and certified to work with children of all ages.
   
   

Private Orientation Class

Here's what you can expect: During the first private orientation class, the instructor will get to know you. He or she will prepare you for our regular classes, and at the end will evaluate you covering many physical and mental areas.

As you start training with us, you'll have several aids to help you at home and at The Impact Martial Arts, including curriculum guides.

Regular classes are taught with a presence of respect yet sincere guidance. We want each student to have fun but not "goof off" fun. Classes are always upbeat and exciting. Each of our students know we expect a 100% effort from them, but that we do realize that everyone has a rough day now and then. We want our students to leave feeling they have worked hard and accomplished something. We strive to make the hour our students spend with us the best, most exciting hour of their day.

Students understand that the byproducts of martial arts training – discipline, respect, humility, and focus – should to be applied to every other area of their lives.

Basic Course

Want to make sure that karate is right for you and/or your kids? That's exactly what our Basic Course is designed to help you find out. We teach only the fundamentals at this level – the basic punches, kicks and techniques. These classes are for everyone, regardless of age or level of fitness. This is where we all make sure that karate is a good fit in your life and/or the lives of your kids.

Black Belt Course

Our Black Belt Course, which is by invitation only, is the program designed to take our students to first degree Black Belt level. Black Belt Course membership is offered to students who have shown a serious commitment and demonstrated a lot of progress in class, and, in the case of our teens, have the full support of their parents. This is where we introduce one-on-one sparring, breakable boards, and work with pads. The Black Belt Course takes our students on a remarkable, personal journey to one of the greatest accomplishments they will make in their lives – earning a Black Belt!

Safety Programs for Kids

Children's safety is our number one concern. Parents of our students rave about the highly acclaimed "Stranger/Danger" classes that teach children how to handle difficult situations, such as being approached by a stranger. The classes are designed to be informative and fun, but we also teach them hands-on, practical application of how to recognize and be aware of strangers. As an organization that works heavily with kids, The Impact Martial Arts wants to make sure your kids – and ours – feel confident, safe and secure.
