Karate for Kids

Taekwondo for Ages 7-12

There are many reasons for kids to become involved in the martial arts. We have developed a program based on traditional Taekwondo for kids called Karate for Kids. The Karate for Kids system is based on a lifetime learning concept in addition to technical skills. The building blocks for our system are monthly themes such as:

Goals	Friendship	Perseverance
Self-Control	Confidence	Self-Improvement
Courtesy	Self Awareness	Respect
Integrity	Self-Esteem	Dedication

In addition to monthly themes, our system includes the unique victory patch. Kids are rewarded special "Victory Stars." These different colored stars are rewarded for outstanding performance in karate class, school, home or at a tournament competition. Kids may receive the following stars for the following deeds:

Gold	Straight A’s, honor roll, or significant improvement
Silver	Special performance awards
Blue	Monthly themes, weekly lessons, classroom performance
Red	Tournament participation

Four different colored Victory Patches are available to accommodate all the stars that can be earned by a high achieving Karate Kid:

Victory Patches
Blue	0-24 Stars
Silver	25-49 Stars
Gold	50-99 Stars
Blue/Gold	100+ Stars
