We pick up
kids from the following elementry schools for our After School Karate program.
Stella Marris, St. Monicas, St. Peters,
Sacred Heart, McCall, Meridith, Jenks, Independence, CCCS, and many other South Philadelphia schools. Call me if
you don't see your child's school.
How is your child spending their time
After School?
Many parents need some help during the After School hours.
The 2-3 hours that kids spend after school before their parents get home are some of the most important hours in a child's
life. Let's look at this example: The average child spends 2-3 hours somewhere after school before their parents come
home. All children attend about 180 days of school each year.
Thats 180
days X 3 hours a day = over 500 hours a year a child spends doing what?
Some go
to baby sitters.
Some go home and play with their friends doing whatever they want.
Other get into serious trouble.
Not our students.
Our students
are studying Martial Arts and learning how to master themselves physically and mentally.
Our students are
in a disciplined enviroment that they love.
Imagine that, discipline, that kids love.
Now think about the time between the 1st and 8th grade, a child spends over 4300 hours doing basically nothing productive.
This time is more valuable than you know. In 4300 hours you could graduate from college, get your Masters Degree and your
Ph.D. So why wouldn't you let your child spend this valuable time learning skills that will last a lifetime?
When our kids get out of school, their parents know that their child is safe and being trained in Martial Arts. This
training is what gives a child confidence and focus. These character traits are transfered to real life situations like
school and home. With our busy 21st Century schedules, it's hard to find the time and resources to really help them
with these important life skills.
You would think and expect that they would learn about perseverance,
positive mental attitudes, self discipline and goal setting in school, but they really don't. Students
who attend Philly Karate are a step up on others because we teach them about these important life
skills and how to develop them to their fullest! Success traits that will pay off for the rest of their lives.
Over the years, I have seen hundreds of children benefit from our unique approach to teaching martial arts.
- Overweight children who lost a few pounds through self discipline and exercise gained tremendous amounts of self
esteem and self confidence.
- Smart children, who were bored in school, learned
to set goals and reach higher.
- Shy children were brought out of their shell
and learned to enjoy life.
- Overactive children learned to channel their energy
and focus their attention
They say that once you learn to ride a bike that you
never forget. Likewise, the skills and habits of success, once learned, become a part of your child. I have witnessed this
through hundreds of children who have experienced our programs since 1990. I have had countless parents tell me their child
is a different child after only a short time at our studio. Parents, teachers, and principals report a growth in confidence,
better focus, improved self-discipline, and better grades in school and on and on.
Our After School
Program is one of a kind. If you're a parent and you want the best for your child, look no further than Philly Karate.
