Early Development: Our program is designed to nurture physical and cognitive development in our youngest martial artists. Ninja skills classes incorporate movement, coordination, and basic martial arts techniques in a fun and engaging way.

Confidence Boost: Watch your little ninjas blossom as they gain confidence through each new skill they master. Our positive and supportive environment encourages them to express themselves and take on new challenges.

Discipline in Disguise: The fundamentals of martial arts are seamlessly woven into activities, teaching kids important values like respect, focus, and self-discipline. Plus, they won’t even realise they’re learning valuable life skills!

Social Interaction: Ninja Skills is more than just a class, it’s a community. Little ones make friends, share giggles, and develop social skills in a safe and encouraging setting.

Instructors: Peter Price, Amber Willis, Samuel White

Juniors

Primary school ages 7 to 11 yrs

Improve fitness, sharpen focus and increase self-esteem while making new friends and having fun. Classes are well structured, with the same syllabus taught to children as it is to adults, just in a different manner. Setting goals and being rewarded for achieving them, gives students a great boost, and is core to the success of Tae Kwon-Do. Combining physical skills such as balance, strength and coordination, with discipline, social interaction and a knowledge of basic self-defence, students are provided with all the skills they need to feel confident in any area of life.
