Teens - "STORM" class
Adolescence
is a tough time. This is the time
when your body is changing, your
chemistry is changing and you are
realizing that mom and dad are more
real people than super heroes, and
it is all just very confusing.
Your child is not an adult, but
they are also NOT a child (as much
as we might like to think of them
like that:) It is a time of self
discovery, change, peer pressure and
self doubt. Adolescence is a pivotal
time in anyone’s life. We understand
that we are individuals but usually
we desperately want to identify with
something.
And to make it
worse, all of our friends are going
through the same thing and feeling
the same way. There is a strong pull
to control our worlds and those in
it. It is a time when we have the
most potential, and we are the most
vulnerable.
Many adolescents
get pulled into negative and self
destructive behaviors and ways of
thinking. As much as I dislike
admitting it (I’m a parent too!)
adolescents are exposed to drugs,
dangerous behavior and sex. All this
can be tempting for them because
they are trying to understand and
define themselves.
At Quest
Martial Arts we know all these
things to be true. And, that is why
we have designed the STORM class
curriculum. One reason we call it
STORM is because that is the way it
can feel sometimes at that age.
We have over a combined 40 years
experience in human behavior. We
know human behavior, adult and child
learning theory and instructional
design. We were professionals in
human behavior and instructional
design a decade BEFORE we opened our
school!
In our classes kids
get martial arts fitness. But, the
karate lessons are designed around
life skills lessons and messages
too! We call them our “Mind Science”
curriculum. Each class we deliver a
topic that is focused on self
esteem, goals setting, contribution,
leadership, self-actualization and
many more profound, very
understandable and usable life
skills.
And earning martial
arts belts are a great motivator!
Students learn the value of setting
and attaining goals, short term
(beginner belts) and long term goals
(black belts and advanced black
belts). Other “sports” or activities
fall short on clearly teaching goal
attainment and perseverance.
All this wrapped is into the best
self defense classes in Ann Arbor!
Your child will learn the most
effective self defense system
available. And it is, by design,
tons of fun.
Our students:
Learn the value of commitment
Discover themselves in a healthy and
supportive environment
Learn how
to work with others cooperatively
towards individual AND common goals
Learn valuable life skills
constantly
Learn goal setting and
perseverance
Have TONS of FUN!
Martial arts schools are not
created equal. We have been here
for over a decade and have helped
thousands of people, young and not
so young find more meaning and
success in their lives.
