Our Programs:

At Rising Son Martial Arts we offer martial arts instruction to three different age groups. Each program has been specifically designed for challenges that students face at different times in their lives. Please read the KOMBIDO details section for better understanding of how we accomplish this.

KIDS:

This program is designed for boys and girls from the ages of 5 - 9 years of age. Extra focus is placed on disciplining the mind to stay focused and on task, learning to interact and work as a team, overcoming feelings of inadequacy and on enjoying themselves. Children are motivated to overcome obstacles and persevere in their efforts to achieve higher belt ranks. A negative criticism of a child’s attitude or behavior is never focused on the child but instead on the undesirable action. In order to build the confidence necessary for self defense, a student must be encouraged and empowered. Rewards include end of class game time and black belt of the day. Teaching strong confidence building, responsibility, and accountability sets students of this age at a unique advantage for many challenges that they will face throughout their lives.

JUNIORS:

This program is designed for preteens from 10-13 years of age. Extra focus in this program is placed on learning to coordinate and control an ever changing body and mind at this volatile time in physical and mental growth. Other factors that receive special focus in this program are strategy building, safety, and leadership. These preteens will learn how to be responsible not only for themselves but also for their partners. Students in this age group are able to begin developing personalized styles of offense and defense and will be taught to develop their strengths and to improve their weaknesses. The increased physical strength and stamina at this age also provides a good time for students to learn some of the more difficult martial arts moves that require a higher level of flexibility and resilience. Students in this class will be encouraged to develop demonstration ready techniques for display at our yearly exhibition for family and friends.

ADULTS:

This program is designed for teens and adults from 14 years of age and up. Extra focus in this program is placed on skill refinement, improved flexibility, strategy creation, adaptability, and leadership. Students will learn to progress through the learning process with a hands on approach. The focus is placed on repetition and continuous improvement. Students will learn to critique each other in a productive way. Classes are quicker paced and students are encouraged to practice what they learn over and over to build quick reflexes and wise strategies. Students in this class are often surprised at how much they are actually capable of doing with the proper instruction. This program offers a much faster path to the black belt.
