by introducing and teaching martial arts, we will give them a direction and a goal. We aim to give them a place to go after school, during holidays and weekends so we can help reduce lost kids getting into trouble or misdirection. We already sponsor many kids and adults to train with us to give them all these benefits to life. We would teach self defence but not only how to defend themselves but how to defuse situations and not rise to them, we educate from a young age respect which is so important in life, we give them drive and purpose to be something spectacular in a controlled environment. health amongst young people is a little lost nowadays and so we educate them on health, fitness and wellbeing leading with wonderful role models.
What we'll deliver:
Why it's a great idea:
Children and young adults are our future and we need to mold and educate them but as well as this we want to give them happiness and safety in their lives.
Steps to get it done:
we run our gym 7 days a week and we pride ourselves in already working on this project, unfortunately our building is falling down and we have no funds to renovate or provide new equipment to our groups, and so with asking for help we hope we can build on to what already exists and expand our mats for all to be welcomed.
