Martial arts can positively affect your kids
growth in multiple ways. There are number of
things that can be learned and achieved in the
training period such as discipline, confidence,
self-esteem, respect, fitness, self-defence etc.
The training would help your child to develop
properly in all fields of life and provides
ability to face different challenges. People
generally think the by learning any form or style
of martial arts their children might become
bullies by using it as an advantage over other
kids. This is a misconception about an art that
is totally different from what people think.
Martial art is a mixture of coordination,
discipline, respect and boosts the confidence
level of the learner.

• Following are few benefits your kid would gain by
  learning this art of self defence
• High level of discipline Self-control is taught
  and the learner is able to concentrate more on
  important things. The instructors would teach the
  kids to concentrate and focus more on how to
  execute a particular technique properly and
  accurately.
•  
• Discipline can be defined as self-control that
  ensures that you do not do what has not been
  asked and must complete the task which has been
  asked to do. In other words, this technique would
  make your kid more disciplined than before. Any
  form or style would surely be hard to learn at
  the beginning, but the reward and goal to achieve
  a higher rank or level would make them
  disciplined.

• Increases self-esteem Your kid would gain high
  level of self-esteem once he/she realises his/her
  worth. When the child becomes more confident,
  capable and develops ability to face the
  challenges, level of self-esteem increases
  manifold. They would achieve success in small
  tasks faced in everyday life and as the training
  improves, these challenges start to look easier.
•  
• Learn to respect others Value of experience,
  rank, age and expertise is taught by almost all
  the forms of martial arts. High level of
  experience and expertise is indicated by higher
  ranks. When a person achieves a particular rank,
  he/she can spread their art by teaching others.
  Even outside the gym or the training school, your
  kids would learn and know how respect people.

• Helps to set goals in life In any style of
  martial arts, specific goals in form of ranks are
  present. More your kid trains, the higher rank is
  achieved. These ranks are indicated often by
  using belts of different colours. Your child
  would learn how to face number of challenges at a
  time and deal with those effectively. In the
  training period the whole knowledge is divided
  into parts and ranking increase with the time and
  experience. This enables the learner to
  prioritise the gaols to advance in the process of
  learning.
• The art of self-defence Your kids would have to
  face a number of bullies in school and colleges.
  But they could deal with them if have ability to
  defend themselves. This confidence would give
  them immense mental peace and they would be able
  to concentrate more on the school activities.
• Body would become fit The training period helps
  to improve the muscular strength of your child.
  He/she would become fitter and agile than before.
  A better body balance is achieved and they would
  learn techniques to prevent injuries.
