Martial Arts & Self Defense Programs for kids in Elgin
The Fusion Fitness MMA Kids programs focuses on the physical and mental aspects of the student’s training. Our classes promote confidence and self-esteem, encourage social relationships, and enhance your child’s physical well-being by laying a foundation that stresses the importance of exercise and self-motivation. Aspects such as self-confidence, modesty, courtesy, focus and teamwork are core principles that are focused upon in kids programs, along with a solid emphasis on the fundamental martial arts skills and techniques.
The Fundamentals of martial arts are instilled upon the students from the beginning, along with a structured environment that encourages and praises those who work hard, show respect and follow instructions. We have adopted a color-coded rank system for our children’s programs in order help breakdown the techniques to ensure that the quality of development remains world class. Our rank system has proven itself since first being implemented, producing technically high-level students who greatly understand and respect the importance of what they are learning. Our kids program is designed for children generally between the ages of 7-12 years old. However, some children remain enrolled in it through the age of 13. Those who are at a higher aptitude of learning or skill level at the age of 13 can move into the adult programs.
