“Honestly, I am completely blown away by these folks. As someone that doesn’t have a natural knack with little kids (although I have 2), I can’t believe how amazing these instructors are with them. There is an older gentleman that teaches who is part drill sergeant and part Mother Theresa with the kids, including my son, and I could watch him all day brilliantly maneuver the students with complete kindness and firmness. I wish he gave parenting lessons as well as karate lessons! My son needed some firm structure, an energy outlet, and work on developing focus and balance, and these are all things prioritized in class. As a resident Nordeaster, I am feeling so lucky that these folks are in the neighborhood. Super affordable, very convenient class schedule, and amazing instructors. Welcome to the Neighborhood, MN K & F!!!!” – Brenda H. Youth & Kids Martial arts in Northeast Minneapolis  Li’l Dragons (Ages 3-6) The Li’l Dragons children’s martial arts class caters to kids interested inkarate, tae kwon do, or other martial arts while teaching them basic martial arts skills with an emphasis on focus, respect, listening, discipline, and confidence. This program has it’s own belt system that help prepare students for the Future Champions program when they turn 7. What’s it all about? At MN Karate & Fitness we teach children basic tools to help them learn martial arts when they get older, and the benefits of life skills. We plan our curriculum each week to include a theme that not only helps students develop their basic martial arts, but really hones in on the skills they will need for life. Each week our drills, games, and activities are coordinated to help students earn curriculum strips & life skills patches. This helps develop habits of focus, listening, and self discipline while they get better at their martial arts. Some drills will combine listening and coordination or strength, while others might enhance focus and memory. We’ve developed 100’s of drills that helpmake each class unique, engage the class, and keep things fun (because that’s how children learn best!) Through top-level curriculum and individualized teaching, students gain valuable life skills that follow them into a successful adulthood. They’ll learn how to set goals for themselves while building confidence, self-discipline and respect. Future Champions – Kids Martial Arts (Ages 7-12) This kids martial arts program is designed for kids 7-12. Students will learn the fundamentals of martial arts and apply them to traditional forms, sparring, and weapons. Our kids martial arts students develop advanced martial arts skills while still having a fun and rewarding experience. What Do We Teach? Our unique kids martial arts curriculum for the Future Champions is a combination of Brazilian Jui-Jitsu, Boxing, and American Tae Kwon Do. This “mixed martial art” gives students the practical self-defense that helps build confidence, while creating well-rounded martial artists. Sometimesreferred to as “sport karate”, we also incorporate competitive elements for local and national martial arts tournaments that includes traditional and creative form, as well as point sparring and kick boxing. These students will also learn to use the Bo Staff, Kama, Nunchaku, and Katana depending on where their interest leads them. This really helps stretch your childs’ creative abilities, improves their physical limits, and elevates their knowledge and ability in martial arts. What Do We Mean by “Quality Martial Arts”? Unfortunately there’s no set standard for martial arts instruction… This means most people never really know until its too late whether or not their child is learning something of value. At MN Karate & Fitness, we take pride in developing top level competitors and have a rich history in training and being trained by top level competitors at all belt ranks. More importantly, we take time to understand each individual students needs and work tirelessly to help each studentsucceed in the way that suits them best. Each child is unique, and each child learns differently. We combine audible, visual, and physical instruction to incorporate as many senses as possible to help each student in the class learn the way they know best. By creating engaging drills and activities, students are more engaged and therefore remember more of the drill. This works equally as well for our mat chats and our focus, confidence, and various life skills activities as it does for their martial arts development. Is MN Karate & Fitness for You?
