East West Martial Arts is your Perfect Partner in Parenting
We teach the same values as you teach at home in our extremely positive, safe and fun-packed classes. The foundation of our Karate Kids curriculum is the education and development of valuable Life Skills, such as developing an excellent positive attitude, together with learning exactly how to set and more importantly achieve goals, through the Martial Arts coloured belt system, which is recognised as the best goal setting system in the world for children.
Unlike any other sport or activity, nothing can beat the Martial Arts for learning and instilling Respect, that will stay with them forever. The traditional nature of martial arts will develop a strong sense of Respect which children learn in our classes, whether they are taking a bow, or waiting for the next set of instructions from their instructor.
This sense of Respect will also help children outside their martial arts classes, as it helps and influences them to become better students at school, with both improved grades and much better behaviour.
Bullies Pick Targets, Not Fights – We Teach Kids to Be Bully Safe

Children who Bully are very choosy, and target children who look like they are ‘soft targets’. They will pick the child who looks away first as their victim. It’s very rarely about size, it’s actually about who looks like they wont say anything back.
That’s the first thing that Martial Arts changes for Children at East West Martial Arts – It’s not what they can do with their hands, it’s how their body language is transformed, so they stand tall and confident, they hold eye contact, and speak in an assertive voice you can actually hear, so they become a ‘hard target’ with very confident body language skills
That change shows up early in their Martial Arts training. The discipline, the focus and the self-control take longer, however these are the ones they keep for life.

WHAT MAKES OUR KARATE KIDS CLASSES DIFFERENT?
Rather than us telling you how good we think our classes are, perhaps its much better to hear what another parent actually thinks of our classes.
Simply the best karate school you will ever find! I love everything about their children’s classes. They are well organized with a very high pupil/instructor ratio which ensures optimal learning.
The skills are demonstrated and practised with a quick turnaround, preventing opportunities for boredom or distractions. There is no messing about! The kids listen and behave well.
The principal instructor Nigel is truly inspiring with his passion and dedication and this cascades down to the younger instructors and leadership team, who are fabulous and incredibly patient.
His wife Julie is also superb in handling all the admin/managerial side of things and has made us feel welcome from the word go. We tried a few other schools but this one beats them all by a country mile – Milena Testori
We love teaching children and we think it shows when you watch our instructors teaching energetic and action packed classes. The Karate Kids classes have a wonderful mix of both girls and boys training together in our classes. We also guarantee that not only are our Karate Kids classes, lots of fun, more importantly, they are also very educational, teaching them Life Skills they will not learn anywhere else.
We understand that our martial arts programme must be about developing a child’s character, as much as the physical skills they learn in our classes. For every punch, kick or block we teach in our Karate Kids classes, we can also increase your child’s confidence. Which, when combined with the value of self-esteem, self-defence and self-discipline are very powerful and life changing lessons.
LIFE SKILLS
Our one-of-a-kind Karate Kids Classes also includes teaching Life Skills.
In each lesson, our instructors focus on this with a ‘Mat Chat’ during the life skills section of the lesson. Our mission is to simply help our younger students have a much more enjoyable and successful life.
These Life Skills includes learning their junior Student Creed (see the video below).
It is during the ‘Mat Chat’ section of the Karate Kids lesson that our instructors cover different topics on a monthly basis. This includes the importance of having and using Courtesy and Respect in life. We also teach valuable Anti-Bullying Skills to help our students stay safe from bullies.
Please Note: Due to the young age of the children, parents are required to stay in the Dojo during the duration of their children’s class, however be warned, the time just flies by.
