Parenting Young Children Can Be a Real Challenge
Balancing your child’s natural curiosity and high energy while teaching them essential life skills can be tough.
Discipline, sharing, and self-control are all crucial for their success in school and life.
The perfect environment for their growth combines structure with an understanding of their developmental stage. When kids have fun while learning, they’re more likely to retain those lessons and develop the skills they need for a bright future.
Grow and Thrive with Every Class!
Young children greatly benefit from studying martial arts. It offers a productive way to release their energy and teaches them vital principles like respect and discipline that last a lifetime. In junior martial arts classes, kids not only learn to manage their movements and behavior but also enhance their social skills and interactions with others.
Martial Arts Training Enhances Coordination and Control
Young children who study martial arts quickly discover that every movement must be purposeful. They learn to control their bodies with intention and precision.
Through consistent practice, they improve hand-eye coordination and develop a deeper understanding of their physical abilities. As a result, they become less prone to unintentional mishaps.
Young Martial Arts Students Learn the Art of Focus
Getting young kids to concentrate can often seem like a daunting challenge. However, the structured environment of our martial arts classes teaches the importance of focus by guiding them through easily achievable tasks.
The focus they develop in the dojo is a skill they carry home and into the classroom. That’s why children who study martial arts often excel academically as well.
Martial Arts Teaches Kids How to Handle Frustration
In martial arts, students work toward earning new belts, which requires setting and pursuing goals. While young kids may initially struggle with frustration when things don’t go their way, martial arts teaches them the value of persistence and resilience.
Our classes also provide a healthy outlet for managing stress and anxiety, helping kids release tension through physical activity in a safe and constructive environment.
Martial Arts Encourages Sportsmanship in Children
Losing is never easy, but it’s a crucial life lesson to learn how to handle defeat with grace and resilience. In our martial arts classes, students are taught that losing is a natural part of life, and their response to it shapes their character.
Even though martial arts is often practiced individually, we create a supportive environment where students encourage one another and celebrate each other’s achievements, fostering teamwork and mutual respect.
Real Reviews
Great instructors and keep the kids very involved. They all learn so much and have a great time!!!
I cannot recommend PMA enough. My daughter has really grown in her self confidence and self discipline in the last year being enrolled here. The instructors are great and really empower the kids to do their best and work together. If you’re considering karate for your kid, check it out!
Peak martial arts is an absolute breath of fresh air! Sensei Kraus is amazing with kids and has such a special talent connecting with them. My son is always very shy and reserved and at peak martial arts he is coming out of his shell so quickly because they make him feel confident and comfortable.
Hands down the best place ever! My son LOVES coming every class. John and everyone else are absolutely amazing!!
Our daughter has trained under Sensei Jon Kraus since she started training in June of 2013. She decided to follow him when he left his former dojo to branch out on his own. It was the best decision we ever made as a family. He is an amazing teacher. He is dedicated to each and every student and has a real gift to teach. He is patient and kind but firm when he needs to be. He is wise beyond his years. A true leader. I cannot thank him enough for truly bringing out the best in our daughter and teaching her to Be the best she can be.
Sensei Kraus and the staff at Peak are amazing! My daughter has been doing karate there for over a year, and she loves it!
If Mr Rogers had a dojo, this would be it. Sensei shares lessons like respect and perseverance, and my 7 year old really takes them to heart. I was nervous having him start karate, but I couldn't be more glad he did. It's boosting his confidence every class. Could not be more thankful, not only to the Sensei, but all of the other instructors too. In 1 class there are often 3-4 other instructors wandering around and individually helping the students as needed.
