Martial Arts is good, clean fun for children and a great way to give them a head start in life. Its widely recognised that children canbenefit in a number of ways from martial arts training from an early age, with training supporting the key lessons and values you teach at home.

Keeping children interested in their martial arts requires and element of fun and games. The Ultimate Martial Arts Academy incorporates fun games involving proper techniques which add to the value of training and keep children interested and enthusiastic.

Students work to a defined curriculum and grade structure. Lesson objectives include the development of confidence, fitness, self-discipline, self defence and awareness as well as providing a place for the children to interact and develop social skills in a safe environment.

Class numbers are kept low in order to give more focused tuition and allow children to get the best from the program.

We have worked with children and youths with various challenges such as bullying, weight issues, low self esteem, lack of co-ordination or focus and children that feel they just don’t fit in anywhere.

We take pride in the leaps and bounds children have made since joining our programs – from the troubled youth who starts to gain an identity and finds self respect, to the child with low self esteem whose parents watch proudly as their child stands tall and executes techniques in front of a class full of people.

Your child is important to us and we want them to be the best they can be, in the gym, at home and in life.

According to a nationwide survey, one out of every three children is affected by bullying. Bullying is the act of verbal or physical abuse designed to disturb someone whom they perceive as less powerful. Attacks can include derogatory comments on a persons race, religion and physical appearance, spreading rumours, in addition to the more familiar behaviour of hitting, slapping or pushing.

Victims of bullying have a hard time making friends and often suffer from low self-esteem. It is also know that children who bully are more likely to have poor grades and indulge in underage abuse of alcohol and tobacco. Most child bullies grow up to be bullies in adult life.

The good news is that the Bully Buster program can help the victim become a peaceful victor and help the bully deal with and conquer their problem.

The program will empower children in the art of fighting without fighting or how to defeat the bully peacefully. If your child(ren) are exhibiting behaviour that suggests they are the victim or the bully, this program will suit them. Society is crying out for help and the Bully Busters can be an intelligent and effective way to prepare our children to cope with todays challenges.

The Bully Busters Basic Tools are:

• Make Friends – Treat the bully as a friend instead of an enemy
• Use Humour – You can turn a threatening situation into a funny one
• Walk Away – Dont get into it, walk away
• Use Your Creative Imagination – Use imagination to resolve conflict
