Kids Self Defence

From White Belt novice to Black Belt Confidence, we teach Traditional Martial Arts Values of Respect, Focus, Courtesy, Self Confidence and Self Esteem. Along with the Martial Arts program we run A Life Skills programe for all the kids, which helps kids develop skills that they carry to all aspects of their life as they grow up, such as concentration, leadership, dedication. Each lesson is based on learning a skill or concept. Kids learn to work with one another, by practising Techniques.

Kids Silat Self Defence Grading May 2011 - Kids with their Certs, Monjet Patch and Belt

Family

Family plays a big part in all our lives and we believe it's one of the best ways for children to develop is to share their hobbies with parents. Many of our kids have Parents who train in Silat (Adults classes always follow kids classes). This is a beautiful example of Father and Daughter showing a short demo of Silat at the recent kids Gradings. Well done Tony and Kate

Kids Grading

Congratulations to all the Kids who passed their Gradings on Fridays Night, you have all done me, the clubs teachers, and all of your family and friends proud. I hope you enjoy your new belts and you wear them with pride and honour. Many thanks to all the parents who supported the grading.
