Why do we offer Age-sPecific Classes?
Children develop in 4 primary ways
While children of all ages develop across these four areas, the way in which they develop can vary depending on their age.
We offer age-specific classes so that appropriate opportunities for learning and enrichment are provided to every student, at each stage of development.
"If you're thinking of putting your children into martial arts, this is the school to go through. Life skills, confidence and mateship are only the beginning. Think of it not as a business but a family environment that welcomes you in and looks after one another, bettering yourself and children, helping them grow - the list goes on. This is the best thing I've done for my children and myself".
- Adrian Perry

Bullying and Peer Pressure

- Peer pressure and social media are impacting self-esteem, body image and behaviour
-Traditional methods for handling bullies, such as "just ignore it", is disempowering.
03
Technology and Screen Time
- Screen time and technology has led to a more sedentary lifestyle, increased risk
of obesity and sleep disturbances
- Increased interference with physical, cognitive and social development
-Increased behavioural issues such as aggression, attention difficulties and impulsivity.
04
Childhood Obesity
- More children are opting out of physical activity, opting to sit out of PE classes and afters school sports
- Childhood obesity rates in Australia continue to rise each year
- Kids are far more willing to quit or "rest" when physical activity increases in demand or intensity, limiting their ability to experience improved fitness and mental fortitude.
