How Martial Arts Helps Children with ADD and ADHD
Martial arts can help children with ADD and ADHD reach their full potential by teaching them focus and confidence in a physical and fun environment. Many parents of children with learning disabilities have called this a game changer for their kids.
4 Common questions from parents of children with ADD/ADHD
1. My child really struggles in social situations – will they feel left out in class?
All students are treated equally and must respect one another and their instructor. Many of our drills are teamwork drills where students have one or more partners. This gives everyone a chance to get to know one another in a fun way. Our martial arts school is a community, and we work hard to make sure nobody is left out.
2. Can a child with serious learning challenges succeed in martial arts?
Yes. The study of martial arts rewards hard work. Our teachers work closely with students, providing the individual attention needed to build on strengths and achieve goals.
3. My child isn’t physically coordinated. Will they get hurt?
Our instructors are experienced in working with children of all abilities and ages. Your child will learn at a pace that is comfortable for them, and in an environment that puts their physical safety first.
4. My child has low self-confidence due to physical challenges. How can martial arts help?
Martial arts instruction focuses on the pursuit of small, achievable goals. Confidence grows with each goal met, and our personalized instruction ensures that kids who have physical challenges can still advance.
