Overview

The Tiny Tigers class is for children ages 3-5. It teaches youngsters to be good citizens and prepares them for life, or at least school. This program includes lessons in safety and life skills as well as physical martial arts skills. These skills help the students become well rounded by promoting the child's social, emotional, physical, and intellectual growth.

Benefits

The Tiny Tigers class is tailor made for this young age group and will therefore, meet their needs better than a traditional martial arts class which is targeted for an older clientele. Tiny Tigers classes will:

• Develop a sense of independence
• Learn to share
• Take turns
• Encourage socialization
• Follow directions and problem solve
• Understand goal setting
• Develop self-esteem
• Promote physical strength
• Promote coordination and stamina
• Build fundamental motor skills
• Increase awareness of body in space
• Develop speech and language
• Develop a love for learning
• Demonstrate responsibility
• Show self-control
• Act respectfully

Why Tiny Tigers?

Unlike other sports, martial arts is lifestyle training focused on whole child development - mentally, physically, socially and emotionally. Although students can compete with their skills, it isn't recommended for this young age group yet as more focus is placed on doing their personal best and not on being "better" than others.
