Team One Martial Arts children's program (ages 5-15) channels a child's natural enthusiasm for the Martial Arts, developing the self-esteem, confidence and self-discipline that parents know will benefit them. Our instructors are not only skilled in motivating children to achieve their full potential in the martial arts but at home and at school as well.  We do not train children like a drill sergeant would, we assist them to develop to their full potential.  Classes consist on warm-ups, basic self-defense, and practice using the P.A.W.* method.  Combine this with our safeguard from strangers instruction and your child will smile with confidence!

* PAW: Play as the Way is teaching/practice method all Straight Blast Gyms use for youth classes.  PAW was created by SBGi Coach Luis Gutierrez of One Dragon Martial Arts www.OneDragon.com  We are proud to use the PAW method to reinforce a learning environment conducive to the stability and maintenance of independence, freedom, and creativity.

Why should my child learn Functional Martial Arts? Why not traditional Karate, Tae Kwon Do, or Kung Fu? FIND OUT HERE!

Our youth martial arts program uses incremental and progressively increasing challenges in complexity, intensity, and unpredictability to provide the child with positive feedback and "errorless learning."  Our approach does not consist of katas, forms, and military style drill sergeant battle calls... the children learn effective self-defense while having fun in a positive environment.  Some people like the traditional styles, but we do not teach that way and why should we?  We compete against those 'traditional' schools and defeat them time and time again.  The winning team must be doing something right... as we are the 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009 Team Sparring Tournament Champions!
