Overview
Martial arts are an ancient method of training your mind, body and spirit to act as one. Martial arts practitioners strive for harmony, but also learn effective and often devastating self-defense techniques. Children who get involved in martial arts reap many benefits in several areas of life.
Fitness
Fitness is a crucial element to all martial arts classes, especially where children are involved. Warmups with jumping jacks, pushups and stretches are common, and the movements of the martial art itself often challenge your muscles and cardiovascular system. Martial artists are known for being toned, flexible and physically fit, and your child will be no different.
Self Defense
The ability to defend yourself against an assailant is an empowering feeling. Most martial arts use self defense as a cornerstone of the entire program. The precise methods will vary from discipline to discipline, but you can be certain that with regular practice, your child will learn to defend himself in a variety of different ways. Many martial arts schools also teach street-smart techniques to kids to help avoid problems altogether.
Self Discipline
Martial arts help instill mental focus in your child, giving her the ability to concentrate on a task and see it through to its conclusion. The discipline that is taught in the dojung in regard to uniforms, customs and techniques often translates into other areas of life, including school and household chores.
Respect
Martial arts are all about respect. Punching, kicking, throwing and locking are all secondary to the respect that is shown form the moment you walk into a dojung. Children learn to bow to the masters who came before them, and to their current instructors. They also learn to treat other students as they wish to be treated. Quality martial arts instructors press upon the respect issue regularly and instruct students to practice respect for self, parents, teachers and peers at every opportunity.
Self Confidence
A child who is involved in martial arts is generally a child who is confident in herself. Working through a martial art and the belt ranking system gives a child measurable goals to follow that are realistic to attain. The sense of accomplishment a child feels by mastering a new technique or graduating to a new belt.

Benefits of Martial Arts for Teenagers
Teaching martial arts to teens in an age of gang violence and bullying may seem to be counterintuitive, but the benefits of martial arts training can help to mitigate these social ills. Martial arts training develops a sense of self-confidence, respect for others and an inner peace that helps young people become productive members of society. Training in martial arts also helps young people become more physically fit than they would be if they just remained on the couch with a video game controller in their hands.
Discipline
Martial arts training helps instill a sense of discipline in students. This discipline may manifest itself in a student standing up for a weaker classmate or helping others with their school work. Discipline is necessary for any teen to achieve their goals and desires. Martial arts training helps young people learn how to deal with frustration and work toward a specific goal.
Self-Confidence
Taking an out-of-shape child and teaching him how to effectively protect himself in the event of an attack does much more than just teach him how to punch and kick hard. It teaches a self-confidence that comes from the inner knowledge that he doesn't don't have anything to prove. You may notice that your child walks a little straighter, holds his head higher and speaks up for himself more after a little martial arts training.
A Sense of Belonging
Many children are unfortunately left to fend for themselves, resulting in an epidemic of gang violence in many communities. Martial arts provide a fun, supportive atmosphere where young people are free to be themselves and where they suddenly realize they fit in. A supportive atmosphere like that found in most martial arts schools helps young people understand that there are adults who care about them and want to see them succeed.
Physical Fitness
Martial arts training is certainly a physical endeavor in addition to all of the mental and emotional benefits provided. Teenagers today are more sedentary than they were in the past, and getting off the couch and sweating a little bit helps them learn the benefits of physical activity. Your teen may start losing weight, become more active and take more interest in physical activities after martial arts training.
