Numerous studies have shown that participation in martial arts classes have numerous benefits for children. While some parents fear participation in martial arts promotes violence, experts disagree. Martial arts helps teach self-discipline and socialization skills. Parents of children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) report great success with martial arts programs. Every child is different but each needs and outlet for pent-up energy and what better way that with a focused program!
