Marietta Martial Arts Sandy Plains FAQS

Every class we emphasize the need to focus – using eyes, ears, and brain. For kids, focusing is the hardest thing to do especially in school. So we approach focus as key component of a student’s development.

Our primary life skill is Future Black belt Behavior. For us, this means Respect, Focus, & self-discipline. Everything we teach starts with these three life skills. Showing everyone respect – between students, instructors, parents, and their teachers. Focus is one of the most important skills to have success at school. We are constantly reminding the students to use their eyes, ears, and brain when they are taking class. We also incorporate self-discipline in the class by reinforcing the idea of doing what you’re supposed to do without being told to do it. The best example is that students are required to bow as they enter or leave the training floor. Part of the bow is to show respect to the flags hanging on the wall. But when a student bows without being reminded, they are exercising self-discipline.

 Extra instructors allow us to give a student extra attention when they are struggling or need some extra help. Students that become confused are very likely to lose interest so having an extra instructor reduces confusion for students.

 A fun class requires that drills keep the kids moving. Motion creates emotion so the instructors change the drills frequently to keep the kids engaged and having fun.
