Every Kid is a Winner! Every Kid is Special!

There are many reasons for kids to become involved in the Martial Arts. We have developed a program based on traditional Taekwondo for kids called Karate for Kids. The Karate for Kids program teaches life skills and positive values as well as martial arts movements. The building blocks for our system are monthly themes like these:

	Goals for Martial Arts		Integrity		Honor
	Courtesy		Attitude		Goals in the Community
	Loyalty		Goals for Relationships		Respect
	Goals for Education		Perseverance		Self-Control

In addition to monthly themes, our system includes the unique victory patch. We use the "star system," placing stars on your child's Victory patch as a reward for good behavior at the Black Belt Academy, at school, and at home. Kids may receive colored stars for the following accomplishments:

Gold: Academic progress
Silver: Special performance awards (tasks at home, community service)
Blue: Monthly themes and behavior in class
Red: Acts of courage (tournaments, extracurricular activities)

Four different colored Victory Patches are available to accommodate all the stars that can be earned by a high achieving Karate Kid:

Blue: 0-24 Stars
Silver: 25-49 Stars
Gold : 50-99 Stars
Blue/Gold: 100+ Stars
