What Age Do Children Go Into Adult Martial Arts Classes?
Posted: January 10, 2024
The journey of martial arts takes many years of dedication, commitment and hard work. We often find at Ellis Academy of Martial Arts that when children reach a certain age, their journey isn’t over! This is when we introduce them to our adult programs, designed to further their understanding of the arts and better their skill. But what age do children go into adult martial arts classes? This blog aims to explore the right age for kids to become adults in the martial arts dojo, and share a little bit more about the adult martial arts classes we have here at Ellis Academy.
Starting Adult Martial Arts Classes
At Ellis Academy, our children’s programs run up to the age of 15, and our adult martial arts classes are designed for those 16 years and above.
Our commitment to nurturing young warriors starts from the moment they tie their first white belts, with some children joining us as young as three years old. Our children's classes, designed to instil discipline, focus, and a passion for the art, provide a solid foundation for the journey ahead.
From our tiny tigers to teen martial arts classes, our students experience a transformative experience that prepares them for the challenges of adult martial arts classes.
Turning sixteen at Ellis Martial Arts is a milestone that we celebrate; it's an invitation to join the ranks of our dynamic adult martial arts program! The adult programs are designed to help students reach their fitness and self defence goals,
while gaining confidence and relieving stress! For those who have climbed the ranks at Ellis Academy and have graduated from children’s classes to adult classes, encouragement to continue on their journey is hugely encouraged. This program offers a seamless transition for our younger warriors, ensuring they continue to thrive and evolve.
Why Adult Martial Arts Classes Might Be Right For You
We know that adult life is tough. Life all of a sudden gets really busy as you approach early adulthood, and it never really stops! It can be quite easy for adults to neglect their physical and mental health, letting the tide of busy work schedules and life take over. This is where adult martial arts classes play a huge active role.
Whether you are starting our adult program as a newbie, or you have been with us since you were a young child, the goal of our adult martial arts classes stays the same. Martial arts classes are so much more than a fitness class. Sure, we nurture physical health and promote an active lifestyle in our classes, but more than that, we help shape people into confident individuals, ready to tackle life’s real challenges.
The teachings that students learn in our adult martial arts classes go beyond the dojo. We aim to empower adults by:
- Increasing awareness
- Promoting self confidence
- Teaching self defence skills
As we grow up, unfortunately, the real life risks we face increase. There is a direct correlation between self defence and crime prevention.
We want adults to feel encouraged to face challenges head on, and feel confident in protecting themselves and others.
