“The skills go into the real world with them with the way that Sensei teaches. He thrives to give these children a moral compass and teaches them life lessons in addition to self defense.

Understanding
Your 5-6 Year Old
It’s easy to overestimate 5 and 6-year-olds! They’re finally starting to follow instructions, and pay attention.
But they often need help in controlling
their emotions, focusing on tasks, and
breaking out of shyness.
Our instructors pay extra close attention to your child. This ensures your child gets just what they need. No kid slips under the radar.

Here’s How We Fill Your 5-6 Year Old With Focus. Confidence. Discipline. Fitness.
FOCUS
Unlock Laser-Like Focus
Hit Targets And Nail Goals
Focus isn’t just about eyes and ears; it’s whole-body attention.
Our Philadelphia kids martial arts program trains kids to focus through exercises like striking and kicking small targets… and even moving targets. It takes everything they’ve got to concentrate.
These focus drills, and more, get their eyes, ears, and body in the game.
- Hitting Small Targets
- Striking Moving Targets
CONFIDENCE
From Shy To Confident
Emotional Growth Through Our
Philadelphia Kids Martial Arts Program
Confidence plays a crucial role in martial arts, both in terms of personal development and effectiveness in combat.
In martial arts, confidence is not just about believing in your abilities; it’s also about understanding your limitations and having the self-assurance to face challenges.
- Master Moves & Ranks
- Achieve in Every Class
DISCIPLINE
Discipline & Self-Control Start Here
Listen, Act & Obey
Discipline isn’t just following orders; it’s following through.
In our Philadelphia kids martial arts class… We teach kids to be still, to listen, and to act—the three pillars of discipline. We teach them basic ‘listening positions’ that they’ll use in class and in life.
We train kids to control their body, mind, and even heart. Exercises that ask them to stop quickly on command are one example. It’s not just useful in class, but in life.
- Our 3 Pillars: Sit, Listen, Act
- Control Over Body & Mind
FITNESS
Boost Strength And Balance
One Kick, Hope, & Stance At A Time
We get that 5-6 year olds are still building their muscle power. That’s why our moves are all about making them stronger and more balanced.
We help kids find their balance through exercises like holding their knee high, and doing 5-15 kicks in a row without putting their foot down.
Our Philadelphia kids martial arts class is not just about staying upright; it’s about staying strong.
- Our 3 Pillars: Sit, Listen, Act

The Dojo is clean and well equipped. Sensei is a fantastic teacher who takes the time to make sure the students follow direction. Thank you all!
