Parents according to KidsHealth.org Kids that are between the ages of 6 – 12 need physical activity to build strength, coordination, and confidence — and to lay the groundwork for a healthy lifestyle.School-age kids should have many chances to participate in a variety of activities, sports, and games that fit their personality, ability, age, and interests.

Classes begin with respect and courtesy followed by stretching, strength building, aerobic training, jumping, kicking and learning self-control and self-defence.
Everything the medical community recommends with a healthy dose of fun says Master Greg Silva from Black Belt Schools International.
