The Mastery Martial Arts Culture

We have countless parents walk into our facility today, shoulders shrugged, voices stammering, telling us that their child is shy and they need some help. Kids copy what their parents do. They copy what any adult does. While their brains are developing, they are watching your every move, copying what you do, how you do it, and what you say. This is why if you’re shy, your kid is going to end up shy, too.

Although this copying that is innate to children can be worrisome to you, the parent, it can also be leveraged in a good way.

The Mastery Martial Arts Culture

We’ve established a culture that is respectful, confident and pronounced. The moment a child walks into a program, they will be surrounded by adults that exude confidence, stand up straight, and talk with a clear, loud voice that is unwavering and present. Children will start to copy these nuances that all of our instructors exhibit as they begin to feel more confident in their abilities and presence.

From there, children will learn acts of respect. Martial arts is based on respect for those that have come before you, with bowing, gracious movements, and the opening of doors as a major part of the program. Saying “yes, please” and “no sir” will become commonplace for your child, which are invaluable manners as they get older.

Even better, while all of this is happening, you will notice it changing you, too, as the parent. That’s right, you will start to embrace this culture of respect in your household as you and your child embark on a journey of self-discovery and awareness.

The Child-Parent Disconnect

During class, we permit parents to get engaged with their kids. Parents can come on the floor, they can tie their belt, and they can be part of the advancement of their child through our program. Mastery Martial Arts wants to create engagement between parents and children. We see so many children and parents existing with such disconnect, unsure of how to communicate with one another. We want to be the catalyst that brings these parties together.

It’s part of our culture to get more than just the kids involved. We know for lasting changes and skill development to occur in kids, parents need to be part of the equation. Our culture is built on self-esteem, strength, engagement, respect, and collaboration between all parties involved. We want to see your family come together, closer than ever before. We believe that starts with martial arts.
