What will my child get from practicing martial arts in your school?
We have adapted the training's manual to suit different age groups along with different levels of their development. The result of children's trainings - better coordination, endurance, strength, flexibility, formation of child's personality.
However, you should not rely on sports regalia, in our school we do not have any and never will have any. We don't participate in competitions nor do we take part in demonstrations. Our main task is- human development, and the main award, which you will receive, will be the physical and mental health.
I'm not sure if my child will be able to train at your school - he had previously trained only on the couch or the computer. Will he make it?
The main condition for learning at "Golden Dragon" school is a will to practice kung fu. Having the desire, the child forgets the difficulties associated with the training process. Maintaining a child's desire to train – is not an easy task, and is completely falls on the shoulders of parents school instructors.
Do we have the possiblility to attend a different group if the time, when our group trains, is uncomfortable for us?
Unfortunately, it's not impossible. You can attend only your group. However, you can change your group to a similar group. That is, if your child is training in a group "Panda" on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, you can transfer to "Pandas" group who train on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.
How to motivate a child to train?
Very often, the decision to attend classes is made not by the child but by the parent. And the child simply refuses to go to training the second or third time. You'll have to show patience and participation. You need to get the child interested and this task falls onto instructors as well as parents. In the training process, we playfully teach the basics of kung fu, use the developing equipment, hold monthly events allowing us to extend children's horizons and, of course, find an individual approach to every child.
What is needed in order to enroll into your school?
In order to enroll you'll have to simply come to the lesson. By the way, the first lesson is FREE.
Is there any uniform or something in particular that my child should wear for the training?
Any kind of sporting clothes will do. It's best to put on some kind of sporting slippers or soft soled snickers. Trainers are not suitable for regular classes because the foot needs to be able to move fully inside a shoe. An alternative to training in shoes is training barefoot.
My child has health problems, can he still attend classes?
Yes, of course. At first, you need to talk to instructors, to describe the problem and we will select the right training manual for your child. Children with health problems can and should perform developing physical activities. Traditional martial arts have nothing to do with sports, which, frankly, are not always helpful and healthy.
Very often, an individual approach can yield significant results in improving the health of the child. Children's body has incredible potential, all that is needed - is to simply give the body the possibility to heal itself, and to do so it must not be lazy. Do not be in a hurry to give up on your child - his health is in your hands.
We're going to take our child to his grandma's on a vacation, how do we go about training?
Unfortunately, the breaks in the training negatively affect the total training process. Our body is such that children lose accumultaed in three months endurance in just three days. We understand that the rest - is good, but at least watch that your child does not cease to train independently. Instructors will help to create personal training manual, adapted specifically for your child. Believe me, the spent time will pay off not only in terms of good health, but more importantly – in terms of character education.
My child's school performance has gone down, untill he'll get it back up - no training.
Classes held at Golden Dragon "- don't use carrots-and-sticks approach. Therefore, if you want your child's to be healthy you need to approach his training seriously. Got problems with academic performance? Let's solve this problem together. Instructors, like mentors, may have an impact in those sensitive matters where others may seem to be helpless. |
