Why Martial Arts Instruction Will Benefit Your Child |
~ |
Mr. Jeff Cvitak's program works hand in hand with your child's schoolwork, providing improved self-discipline, self-confidence, mental alertness, and goal-setting. At Martial Arts USA, kids are taught that with dedicated and intense work, all worthwhile goals in life are possible. Parents have attributed our program with improved grades as a direct result of the increased achievement motivation, self-direction, and self-confidence taught by the program. |
| |
| Goal Setting |
| |
| It is important for each child to learn to set short-term, intermediate, and long-term goals. At Jeff Cvitak's Martial Arts USA, every child's goal is the Black Belt, a symbol of excellence in martial arts and an important tool for instructors and parents to use for developing desire and tenacity and for teaching the importance of follow-through in any activity. |
|
|
| Exam Emphasis On choolwork All children in the program are required to bring copies of their grades from school, complete parent/teacher intent to promote forms, and complete exam qualification forms prior to testing. All of these support our focus on academic excellence as well as contribute to the family and the community. Jeff Cvitak's instructors work hand-in-hand with school teachers and parents to insure a well-balanced and focused developmental process for each child. |
| |
| Proper Use of Skills It is constantly stressed to all students that karate skills require them never to be abusive or offensive and are only for use defensively. |
