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:
