5 years and up – Dragon Kids: emphasis on black belt success cycle. 

• The emphasis of our youth program is on establishing discipline and courtesy while teaching practical self-defense techniques. During all training activities, the safety of children is our main priority.

• Training at Eastern Academy builds confidence by teaching children self-control and the ability to stand up to negative peer pressure.

• Training at Eastern Academy builds confidence by teaching children self-control and the ability to stand up to negative peer pressure.

• The movement of the Martial Arts develops coordination and increases strength and flexibility.

• The awarding of belts gives children a sense of achievement and accomplishment. Training for these tests and passing them enhances a child’s ability to concentrate, plan for, and triumph over learning hurdles.

• The true value of the Martial Arts is in teaching children how to defend themselves. Unlike many schools that teach techniques designed for tournaments where the objective is to “score a point”, the Eastern Academy will teach your child useful skills designed to help them in actual self-defense situations. The result is a self-confident child who does not need to bully or show off to other children.

• Finally, Martial Arts at the Eastern Academy is good, clean fun for kids and a productive way to burn off extra energy.
