Kids martial arts classes from 7 years up
As you know, at Can Do Martial Arts we run the fantastic
KickStart programme for children to get to know martial arts whilst developing
their confidence, strength, agility and mental focus. KickStart is suitable
from three to six years of age, but what do your little Ninjas do when they
turn seven?
Luckily, there’s something for everyone, every day for all
ages of martial arts lovers.
Kids Jeet Kune Do (JKD)
This class runs from 5pm on Mondays, Wednesdays and
Thursdays, 6pm on Tuesdays, and 4pm on Fridays, so they can stick around after
KickStart to see how it works. Youngsters can also join in with the ‘all-ages’
JKD classes on at 10am on Saturday mornings or move into the Advanced Kids at
6pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Known as Bruce Lee’s art, JKD is hugely popular due it’s
very personalised style. What suits the student, suits the art. Children can
take their learnings from KickStart and begin to explore and shape their own
techniques to match their personality and physical attributes.
Kids Karate
Karate is on Tuesdays and Fridays at 5pm, with all-ages
classes on Thursdays at 6pm, Fridays at 7pm and 4pm on Saturdays, so you can
join them on the mats!
Karate will be most familiar to the students that move on
from KickStart and maintains a lot of the Japanese traditional values of
respect, dedication and perseverance. Karate is a great way to teach
self-defence and develop speed, accuracy and overall fitness.
Kids Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ)
6pm on Mondays and Fridays is when the more grappling
focused classes of BJJ take place. The techniques learned in BJJ allow a
smaller, weaker individual to learn how to overcome a larger opponent using
wrestling styles and mechanical manipulations in favour of strength.
BJJ is known as the gentle art because it uses science and
strategy to accomplish a winning move.
Are your martial arts kids ready to try new techniques?
Our coaches; Chris, Ben, Jordan, Stella, Scott, and Anthony

KickStart before and are new to martial arts, all the kids classes can be tried
free, with no obligation.

class and day that suits your family and give it a go! A warm welcome from
our dedicated team awaits.
