JR Karate Kids is a class aimed at the preschooler from 3 to 5 years old. Our program caters to this age group’s needs by targeting their stage of development physically, emotionally, intellectually, and socially.
Our primary focus for JR Karate Kids include these 10 fundamental skills:
Focus Memory Respect
Discipline Teamwork Fitness
Control Balance Coordination
Stranger Danger
The program helps to enhance positive development in a fun and motivating way.
Using an innovative rotating program, we teach our young friends the basics of Taekwondo using the best key to learning that there is…repetition, repetition, repetition! Using fun drills and karate games our Karate Kids learn basic hand and foot techniques and their own special Karate Kids forms.
We also strive to instill good ethics in our young students with conversations before and after class discussing our school’s tenets:
Modesty Courtesy Integrity
Perseverance Self-Control Indomitable Spirit
Testing occurs every two months: JR Karate Kids are tested on their form, hand and foot techniques, and board breaking. All of this combined helps build these young martial artists’ self-confidence and gives them great goal building skills as they achieve a higher level with each belt testing.
Classes are always taught by experienced Taekwondo Instructors.
Our JR Karate Kids program is offered in three different venues:
At your preschool in person
Your preschool can purchase the online program (This program goes through all of the same curriculum as the other Karate Kids minus the board breaking at the end of the session.)
