Youth ages 6 to 14 years
 We at Lendermans Martial Arts are very concerned with the well being and education of our children. We understand that younger students have a shorter attention span. Our unique children"s program uses interesting and enjoyable methods to keep the student"s attention and teach our young students skills that they can use for life. We promote non-violent resolutions to conflict. Our methods help children explore and understand conflict through role-play and other exercises. With childhood obesity on the rise martial arts is a great activity to teach them to make great food choices and makes exercise a daily part of their lifestyle.

Skills and Development
Skills that will benefit your child, help them grow, and build their confidence.
Courage
More than any other sport, Karate gives our children the chance to explore their innate powers. Marvel as they increase in strength, flexibility, endurance, balance, and harmony. This is only the start. Physical skills act as a foundation for something much more important: the development of value skills, both mental and spiritual.
Staying power
Our students find the courage to move outside of their comfort zone. They will themselves to take on more difficult karate moves and skills. They suddenly see their lives as a constant, never-ending journey of life-giving improvement. In short, with a deep breath, they refuse to become a victim of fate. They learn to create their own destiny.
Keener focus
Our students find joy in improving their physical stamina. They can walk farther, run longer, and practice skills until they get them right. In turn, they learn not to give up. They strive harder and longer to reach goals. Even if at first they fail, they persevere. They won"t let self-doubts get in the way of finding ultimate solutions.
Powerful Self-Control
They learn to make eye contact with teachers (and not just in karate). They pay greater attention to what each teacher says.
Improved Focus
They"ll refuse to give in to negative peer pressure and they"ll gain a deeper respect for rules.
Fearless Self-Confidence
They"ll learn what"s needed, along with the skill to "zero in" on critical tasks at hand. Normal, yet time-wasting, childhood distractions won"t get in the way.
Towering Role-Model Teachers
Watch as your child finds the courage to open any door life has to offer. As you might guess, all of this couldn"t have happened unless we had the very best teachers. To make sure we have the very best, each of our teachers have years of experience in our system and has been thoroughly trained in positive teaching methods.
Respect
Through the Lenderman method of martial arts instruction, your children will learn philosophy and customs to build superior relationships based on friendship and mutual respect. "To get respect one must first give respect"
Discipline
Our students learn to develop self-control, self-motivation and perseverance through martial arts discipline
Goal Setting
Setting goals is the "road map" of life. It has been said that "If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail." On the road towards a Black Belt, the Lendermans student gains the experience and motivation for success by earning progressively higher belt ranks. Success is the reward for goal setting.
Self-Defense
And of course they will learn effective and powerful self-defense skills, (after all, we are a Karate School), as well as the fundamental attitudes appropriate to those tools. The basic attitudes of a successful martial artist, and a successful person, are confidence, respect, discipline, goal setting and effective leadership.
Black Belt excellence
Our goal for every student is to help them earn their Black Belt not only in martial arts, but in life! By working toward this goal we create an instructional environment in which individual students develop confidence by accomplishing realistic and attainable goals.
