Middle School Kung Fu:
Starting middle school is a cultural shock to most 6 graders. They are sandwiched being a kid in elementary and turning to the teen years. They are trying to fit in and look cool. Elementary school is in a control environment. Yet, in middle school the child is given so much liberty that it is hard for them to handle it. Some kids will bully and others will be bullied. This course will help a child acclimate to middle school and make new friends. We are in the business of developing positive and successful future leaders through our fun Kung Fu Child Development program.
Our Middle School Kung Fu class was developed to empower kids eleven to 15 years old. As soon as the child graduates from 5th grade we start them in our Middle School Kung Fu program. This program will prepare your child for the physiological, hormonal and physical changes that they will encounter in Middle School. This class will also prepare them for the new freedom of choice that they will encounter in Middle School. It will teach them to deal in a positive way with peer pressure, bullying, drugs, alcohol and the environmental changes of Middle School. Pre-teens and Teenagers need to learn Life Skills if they are going to make it in middle school, high school, college and in the adult world. Our program teaches teens time management, leadership, public speaking, and Goal Setting.
