As a father of two children, I am sensitive to the needs of parents looking for children's activities. You want your children to enjoy the experience, but you also hope that they are taking something of real value from the experience. In Shaolin-Do I can just about guarantee that result. We don't teach martial arts by playing dodge ball! It's hard to believe but most martial art programs for kids these days spend 75% of class time playing games.
Martial Arts is a long-term solution!
My daughter started when she was four years old. She has been listening for three years now to me speak of using martial arts to conquer fears, strengthen will, and prepare you for a successful life. She is now repeating these ideas back to me (of course I'm bursting with pride) as if there is no other way to think.
AT SHAOLIN-DO
1- We teach martial art techniques and principles first and foremost.
2- We teach that fitness and hard work are fun without all the silly games.
3- We don't scream and yell at the kids and call it discipline.
4- We usually never have more than 4-5 kids with any one instructor!
5- Most of all, we treat your kids with the same care that I treat my own.
The rewards and benefits of martial art practice are too great for it to be just about trophies and little colored belts. I take your children's future much more serious than that. They need to have fun while learning that hard work is its own reward and good things only come with patience, perseverance, and effort.
Two Programs
We Have Pre-K classes twice a week (4-6 year olds)
The advanced children's class is for 6-11 year olds (12 and up are encouraged to join the adult class)
Arrange for your child (or yourself) to try a free class.
I know that money is tight!
We have the lowest priced martial arts program for kids in the city because we know the money crunch is hurting the average Austin family. Frankly, martial art training is just too good for kids for it to be about money, so I'll make it as affordable as possible with:
1- Monthly Payments
2- NO registrations fees
3- Low priced test fees
