Will My Child Become a Bully?

A specific part of our preschool and kids martial arts classes at Family First Martial Arts – Spring Hill in Spring Hill is teaching respect, and teaching when to use their new self defense training and when to NOT use them. We find that our students become more confident to stand up to bullies. And have more humility and kindness to others though their martial arts lessons.

We love when parents stay to watch their children in their kids martial arts lessons. The kids love being able to show off what they are learning to their parents! Even better…you can join one of our martial arts classes for adults! Have it be an activity that you share together. Something to make that family bond stronger! Or, maybe you prefer some ‘me-time’. Simply drop them off, and get a little shopping done or grab a coffee. They are sure to greet you upon return with a huge smile, because they had SO much fun!

We don’t require parents to stay during classes. However, we do find that parents who get involved with their kids martial arts lessons, truly build a solid connection as they see their child grow in confidence and skill as they progress through their belt ranks. And building strong family units is important to us at Family First Martial Arts – Spring Hill for our Spring Hill community.

Not at all. You will find that martial arts classes are the PERFECT sport for kids who are not good at sport. Kids martial arts classes really are an individual after school activity, that they do in a group. The journey from white belt to black belt is different for each student. But what is the same…. They improve co-ordination, balance, motor skills, focus and discipline. Plus, they makes lots of great friends! Our Instructors are highly skilled in teaching martial arts for kids. Really… It’s their PASSION!

This is probably the BEST kids activity for children who sit a lot! Getting them active, without them realising they are learning, is our skill.

Most kids LOVE being ninja!

Yes! One of the great things about martial arts classes, is that it’s an individual sport, done in a group environment.

All of our classes are open to all skill levels, beginner through advanced. We focus on the fundamentals of jiujitsu, which are simply the most effective parts of the art. We also do a lot of specific drilling and training, which teaches you how to apply techniques and movements during a “live” roll.

No, Competition is not for everyone. And, not all competitions are the same. It can be a good way for students to learn and test their skills, and strive for outstanding achievement. And it is important to be selective as to which competitions are entered. However, you will find that our experienced Instructors can create that type of learning environment within the class.

Absolutely! Women really find that the benefits of doing martial arts training in BJJ is that they learn to protect themselves against a bigger, stronger opponent. Something they never thought was possible. We think ALL women should know how to protect themselves, especially on the ground! Yes, initially some women find that the close training proximity might be a little uncomfortable. But don’t worry! We will ease you into it, and before long you will be feeling confident, powerful and really looking forward to you regular BJJ classes in Spring Hill.
