At Discovery Martial Arts, we offer a wide range of Kids Martial Arts training for all ages and experience levels, designed to help your child develop vital life skills while staying active and learning important self-defense techniques. Students in our Kids Martial Arts classes benefit from exciting, ever-changing programming that keeps them motivated week after week.
From our youngest students up through our most advanced teenagers, Kids Martial Arts has provided physical, mental and emotional enrichment that many traditional sports and activities simply do not offer.
At Discovery, our Kids Martial Arts students stay motivated each and every class with belt promotions and an increasing understanding of the vast martial arts disciplines. But we invite children to join at any age and we have designed our age specific classes to ensure each child is given the opportunity to thrive.
Class options for boys and girls include:
Ages 2-3: We teach basic motor skills and work on listening exercises in this age group.
Ages 4-5: The most basic of instruction that sticks to fun exercises in a safe and controlled environment.
Ages 6-7: An introduction to base-level movements and techniques with a focus on having fun and meeting new friends.
Ages 8-10: Building on some of the things students may already know while teaching others the basics of Martial Arts through drills and exercises.
Ages 11-12: A class built to help children adapt to their growing bodies. Children will have vast differences in the sizes and ability levels at this age but we control the environment so all can have fun.
Teenagers: Guiding out most experienced Martial Arts students through the later stages of their belt promotions, these classes are also still perfect for the beginner with no previous experience.
We know that kicking and punching and breaking boards can be fun, but our Kids Martial Arts classes also offer skills that students will carry with them for the rest of their lives. As students experience the many successes and challenges of the Martial Arts, they develop important learning skills and personality traits that our instructors carefully support and foster.

My two daughters, ages 8 and 11, are gaining crazy amounts of self confidence and body awareness from their martial arts classes. They have both told me that they love learning how to defend themselves, and love challenging themselves to learn new techniques. We hope this will be a life-long journey for them!
Discovery Martial arts has been much more than just a "Dojo" to me- it has a very family oriented feel- the owners & instructors make students feel welcome and confident from the moment you first step in the doors. In my personal circumstances I haven't been able to attend as many classes as I would like due to ( off site ) injury and hectic work hours- but whenever I do have the time to walk through those doors there is a genuine feeling of acceptance and a high level of thought that is put into each training by the instructors- I only wish that I had more time to take advantage of the wonderful classes offered at the school- it truly is a home away from home that just happens to teach a very effective and modern ( although deeply rooted in historical lineage) form of martial arts that is relevant from class #1.
Love love love! The Sensei's are AMAZING with the little kids! They teach focus, strength & self control. My son is thriving from these classes!
