Here’s How We Fill Your 5-6 Year Old With Focus. Confidence. Discipline. Fitness.
FOCUS
Unlock Laser-Like Focus
Hit Targets And Nail Goals
Focus isn’t just about eyes and ears; it’s whole-body attention.
Our Des Plaines kids mixed mixed martial arts program trains kids to focus through exercises like striking and kicking small targets… and even moving targets. It takes everything they’ve got to concentrate.
These focus drills, and more, get their eyes, ears, and body in the game.
- Hitting Small Targets
- Striking Moving Targets
CONFIDENCE
From Shy To Confident
Emotional Growth Through Our
Des Plaines Kids Mixed Martial Arts Program
Confidence plays a crucial role in mixed mixed martial arts, both in terms of personal development and effectiveness in combat.
In mixed mixed martial arts, confidence is not just about believing in your abilities; it’s also about understanding your limitations and having the self-assurance to face challenges.
- Master Moves & Ranks
- Achieve in Every Class
DISCIPLINE
Discipline & Self-Control Start Here
Listen, Act & Obey
Discipline isn’t just following orders; it’s following through.
In our Des Plaines kids mixed mixed martial arts class… We teach kids to be still, to listen, and to act—the three pillars of discipline. We teach them basic ‘listening positions’ that they’ll use in class and in life.
We train kids to control their body, mind, and even heart. Exercises that ask them to stop quickly on command are one example. It’s not just useful in class, but in life.
- Our 3 Pillars: Sit, Listen, Act
- Control Over Body & Mind
FITNESS
Boost Strength And Balance
One Kick, Hope, & Stance At A Time
We get that 5-6 year olds are still building their muscle power. That’s why our moves are all about making them stronger and more balanced.
We help kids find their balance through exercises like holding their knee high, and doing 5-15 kicks in a row without putting their foot down.
Our Des Plaines kids mixed mixed martial arts class is not just about staying upright; it’s about staying strong.
