Martial Arts School Programs
Info
To get more information about our school programs, please contact us. We look forward to working with you on our common goal of making sure the leaders of tomorrow are successful and confident today!
In addition to teaching martial arts to our own students, we also offer programs for schools.
Our instructors will come to your school either during the school day or after school
to deliver training that integrates the physical aspects of martial arts with lessons about character development. confidence, respect, and leadership.
Introduction day
As a guest gym teacher or a guest speaker in the classroom, we work with the assigned grade levels to create interest among the children. We talk about the following:
How to be a good listener and show respect for the teachers
You are what you sound like - confidence in the classroom
Dealing with a bully - using verbal defense tactics to deal with confrontation
After school program, five classes (taught at your school)
Two classes a week, after school
Classes focus on respect, discipline and focus skills.
Parents contribute $19 to $39 for the program - the cost is up to you. One hundred percent of the fee is donated to your school.
We volunteer our time for the entire program and donate supplies.
Kids have daily homework assignments that are discipline and character related.
Verbal Self Defense
Verbal Self Defense
Our Verbal Self Defense program provides children and adults with tools which help resolve conflicts by controlling their responses and using specific word blocks. This same program is used by police officers across the country to de-escalate potentially dangerous situations. Our staff has participated in the same training program slightly adapted to make the messages applicable to children. The program is modifiable for all age levels, group sizes and time frames.
Martial Arts Isn’t Just For Kids
While our martial arts training is an excellent personal-development activity for children, it’s great for adults also.
Our Northbrook Martial Arts adult students usually find that they cope better with stress, sleep better at night, work better during the day and just feel better overall.
They also have a greater peace of mind due to the knowledge and expertise on what to do if faced with a dangerous situation.
However, the greatest benefit of martial arts at K.H. Kim Taekwondo for adults is the increased sense of self confidence it builds.
No matter what the style of martial arts
whether it’s karate, kung fu, taekwondo, jujitso, judo, aikido, tai chi or kendo - the physical and mental benefits are similar.
All of the martial arts Northbrook classes are individualized.
Adults participate at their own fitness level while progressing in skill and technique.
When participating as a family, martial arts provide a unique opportunity for sharing in a non-competitive fun activity.
Plus, parents have the opportunity to reinforce the life lessons taught in our martial arts classes at home.
Northbrook Martial Arts provide an ideal workout for both men and women.
Our adult martial arts students range in age from young adult to seniors.
