As parents and adults, you understand how important it is to set goals in life. If you don’t, basically you’re not going anywhere!
“Our plans miscarry because they have no aim. When a man does not know what harbor he is making for, no wind is the right wind.”
Seneca
Seneca says it best.
Training at The Dojo of Karate we help your child set goals in life. But it begins with setting goals in Martial Arts.
The Dojo of Karate is a Black Belt School. That means all of our students have the goal of becoming a Black Belt one day.
Mind you, achieving this goal is a long process, but they are determined to make it all the way… no matter what.
But, it all starts with the first class, and the baby steps in-between each rank.
See, we have a belt ranking system that helps students achieve goals and learn what it takes to accomplish them. In addition, they are rewarded stripes on their belt for learning certain material in their curriculum.
This is almost the same format that is approached in the armed forces.
Plus, our Karate classes will organize certain drills, activities, and games that will help push your child to the next level by having friendly competitions. This way, they learn how to set short term goals too.
As you probably know, in life, we need to have short, medium, and long term goals. Students at The Dojo of Karate set their goals like this usually.
- Short Term – Get their next stripe on their belt for learning a certain form.
- Medium Term – Get to Low Green Belt – which is the half-way point to Black Belt
- Long Term – Become a Black Belt!
We’ve seen kids set goals at improving their grades in school, make the basketball team, become leaders at the Karate school… the list goes on! And, they all achieve them.
Do you want your child to not only set goals in life, but achieve them in a way that will give them the confidence necessary to achieve anything?
