Our Safe Side Program is our early child development martial arts program. This program is specifically designed for ages 4 and 5 years old. These are formative years in your child’s life. The Safe Side Martial Arts’ training program for preschool and kindergarten can make a positive impact on your child’s development.
 

At Rhyno’s PKKA, we have created a positive, safe environment for your 3-5 year old. Rhyno’s PKKA instructors believe in positive reinforcement, focusing on what the student does right and helping your child build success from there.

Key Areas of Training

Balance and Coordination

• A major part of our curriculum are symmetrical movement exercises. These exercises focus on left- and right-side motion. These activities help these young students develop balance and coordination. Good balance and strong coordination at an early age form the foundation of self-confidence and self-control.

Focus and Concentration

• Safet Side participates in striking, kicking, speed, and agility drills. Not only will the drills help with motor skill development, but they will also enhance the student’s ability to focus. Focus and concentration are essential pillars of child development. This will help your child become more disciplined.

Stranger Awareness

• Kids at this age are, by nature, very impulsive and eager. That’s why it is important for your child to know what to do when approached by a stranger. Our lessons incorporate stranger awareness, and understanding on who their "safeside" adults are in their life. Through these lessons, we aim to teach your child what he or she needs to know to be safe. This is also a foundation of self-defense.

We have a specially designed curriculum for our Junior Program.  This program represents the next step in kids martial arts training. Students in this program set goals, learn self-defense, and anti-bullying tactics in a safe and fun environment. Our Juniors Program continues to focus on self awareness, confidence, focus, respect, personal development and physical fitness.

Regardless of what age your child begins karate they will begin to develop into skilled athletes who can overcome almost any challenge put in front of them.
