Kids’ KiMudo Classes in Barrington, IL

Our kids’ KiMudo classes in Barrington, IL, are designed to teach children the importance of concentration. Improved concentration means that your child will learn more at school. Therefore, you can expect your child to receive better grades for both academics and attitude. In our school, children who receive A’s and B’s on their report card receive special recognition in class indicating that they’re "Academic Achievers".

Martial Arts for kids are a great way for them to work-out. Your child will breath better, eat better and sleep better. Children who take Martial Arts are slimmer, make better decisions about food, and in general, learn to take care of themselves. Studies at UCLA on cognitive brain function have shown our training increases brain size and capacity by over 10%. You won’t see any of our Black Belt Students smoking or using drugs, now or ever.

Kids in our program learn to have a positive attitude. You won’t find yourself repeating yourself over and over, or arguing with your child like most parents do. Kids learn to be respectful of their parents and teachers. You might even catch your child saying: Yes Ma’am or Yes Sir!

It’s true, kids who take Martial Arts develop better self-confidence. They’re encouraged to take chances, to push themselves further than they thought possible. The success they experience through Martial Arts teaches them that they can be successful at anything if they truly believe they can and are willing to work hard. Improved confidence leads to better grades, a better circle of friends, better performance in sports and extracurricular activities in general.

Martial Arts for kids teach two forms of self-defense. One is physical, your child will improve his or her strength, flexibility and overall health. Additionally, your child will learn to strike with tremendous power and effectiveness. Hopefully your child will never be picked on or need to fight... But should the occasion arise, shouldn’t everyone know how to protect themselves? The second form of self-defense Martial Arts teaches is internal. Children learn to spot danger and avoid dangerous people, places and activities. Martial Arts can help your child avoid the need for a physical confrontation. This second form of self-defense is perhaps the most valuable of the two.
