Selecting A Martial Art
Selecting a martial art that is right for you is the most important decision you can make. You want an activity that you are comfortable with, but at the same time challenges you mentally and physically.
Why Study Martial Arts?
- If you were put into a situation where you had to defend yourself or your family, would you have the confidence and training to do so?
- If your kids were being teased or bullied, would they have the confidence and self-esteem necessary to withstand it, and the training to defend themselves only if necessary?
- Are your children involved in an activity that reinforces — rather than undermines — the lessons of respect, etiquette, discipline, and positive thinking that you teach them at home?
- Do inspiring, positive, and respect-worthy role models surround you and your kids?
- Does your current exercise program burn fat, build muscle, stretch tissue and joints, and teach you valuable life skills all at once?
Martial arts training strengthens and stretches your muscles, your intellect, your spirit, and your confidence. It is a positive, healthy activity that involves the pursuit of challenging goals through diligence and self-discipline. It is also a community-minded, family-friendly activity in which adults have the opportunity to set an example of proper behavior and values for our children.
Which Martial Art is for Me?
The most important thing to consider when looking for a school is not just the style, but finding the right instructor. The instructor is what makes the difference.
What is the Best Instruction?
All instruction should be given by highly qualified instructors on an individual basis. During instruction and training the utmost care should be taken to ensure the safety and progress of each student. Each individual should be allowed to progress at his or her own pace according to their abilities. If the instruction is worthwhile, the student will be eager to attend all their classes.
What about Instructor Qualities?
- Pleasant personality
- Enthusiastic and encouraging
- Inspirational and motivating
- Gentle, but firm
- Patient
- Ability to demonstrate technique
- Interest in helping you attain your goals
