Sidekicks: Ages 4 - 6
Sidekick's Martial Arts in Huntsville
Ages 4 - 6!
Our Sidekick program focuses on developing motor skills, balance, self-discipline, and comprehension! We love for kids to have early opportunities for learning in a controlled environment to burn all their energy. Students will begin to learn the basics of Marital Arts such as blocking, kicking, rolls, and self-defense. Students will also develop productive attitudes in a learning environment such as distinguishing "play-time" from "discipline-time" and how to follow directions.
Students will remain white belts while enrolled in this program but are also given opportunities to showcase their skills and earn Power Stripes. Advancement to a rank program is based on the child's skill level and maturity.
Class Schedule: Class Sizes are limited! Please contact us for availability!
