Stepping back to school after another summer is always an act filled with the promise of a new, better school year. If you are among those children, or if you have a child who hopes to do better and bigger in the coming school year, then martial arts is for you. Children’s martial arts holds the ultimate and perfect solution to improving a child’s performance in school, thoroughly revamping their life from all aspects.
Martial Arts for School-Going Children: The Life-Changing Choice
It is often with hesitation that parents of school-going children approach martial arts. The doubts ranger from whether martial arts will tax my child too much to whether it will provide any benefits at all. The following points will tell you that martial arts is probably the best co-curricular activity that your child can take up in their schedule during schooldays, all for the right reasons:
- Self-Esteem: Martial arts build confidence, teach kids to esteem themselves. Instilling confidence is a process that martial arts achieves through training methods that are challenging but rewarding a learner’s self-worth. Self-worth, confidence and self-esteem have a great role in determining their performance in school, especially in team work, public speaking, and examinations.
- Motivation: Most of the kids who struggle in school do so because they fail to find the right kind of motivation. Martial art teaches children to shift the focus from extrinsic factors of motivation such as marks, grades and incentives to intrinsic motivating factors such as the desire for knowledge, pleasure of working and so on. This pushes your child in the right direction in academics.
- Focus: Attention and focus are other key factors in improving a child’s performance in school. To do well in school, work, and life, a child must necessarily be attentive toward the immediate happenings that surrounds him/her. Being alert in a classroom is an instance. A child should also learn to focus perseveringly on goals. Martial arts, through strategies of training the mind and senses, teaches children both immediate alertness and long term focus on things that matter.
- Co-Curricular Excellence: Martial arts help children to shine not just in studies, but also in a number of other activities including sports, athletics and arts. Children with a passion for sports are probably the most benefited from martial arts, as it helps them to achieve athletic nature, fitness, quickness of body and mind, coordination of senses, and energy.
- Dealing with Distractions: Perhaps the greatest benefit of martial arts for school-going children is that it helps kids to deal with concerns such as bullying, peer-pressure, stress, issues with fitting in, and much more. Fighting bullying by oneself was never a possibility until martial arts came to the scene: with the strength, confidence, purpose of mind and assertiveness provided by martial arts, saying no to bullying is finally possible for even those children who are timid and perceived as weaklings.
If you are all set to add an hour of martial arts to your child’s schedule for all the benefits it can provide, the children’s martial art lessons at Bruce McCorry’s Academy, the 40-year-old professional martial art school is what you need.
