Lil' Dragons - (3-7 years)

Class Schedule:

Saturday Mornings     10:00 am - 10:30 am

Lil' Dragons is a fantastic pre-karate program aimed at 3-7 year old children which emphasizes coordination and life skills.  The class works to develop a foundation for each student to build upon as they grow in karate skills AND in all areas of life.  Our Lil' Dragons program does not just train physically but also mentally, socially and emotionally.  It is so important for children to exercise when they are young to develop healthy habits for the rest of their lives.

Some of the things we work on are:

Excercise / Stretching / Karate Skills

Self Defense / Stranger Awareness

Manners / Kindness / Sharing

Character Building

Motor Skills / Balance / Following Directions

Focus and Listening Skills / Safety

Taking care of our bodies

and much more!

Doing our best with all our heart!

We work hard to develop a sense of belonging to a team and we all cheer for each other to do well.  

We look forward to seeing your children in class!

Every day we practice the Lil' Dragon Creed -

"I'm a Lil' Dragon, oh so strong,
learning each day right from wrong.
  In this class I know I'll find,
honesty for my heart and knowledge for my mind.
  My uniform colors, white, purple, green,
 shows I belong to an awesome team."

Sensei Michelle Pearson, the wife of the head instructor of Sensei Paul Pearson, heads up the Lil' Dragons Program.
  "I had the privilege of working in a Lil' Dragons Program under Sensei Michelle Rogers, the wife of my immediate instructor Sensei David Rogers in Paso Robles, CA.  She brought tremendous enthusiasm to the Lil' Dragons and a great love for the kids.  I want to thank her for her training, support and encouragement.  I hope our Lil' Dragons Program will be just as successful!"

The childhood obesity epidemic is getting worse.  The Journal of the American Medical Association finds that one in three children is overweight.  They develop a much higher risk of developing diabetes and heart disease.  Physicians agree that parents underestimate the threat that obesity brings to children.  With physical education classes cut out of many schools and children obsessed with computer and TV games, children are seriously threatened with the possibility of obesity.  The answer is exercise and healthy eating habits.
More and more children are diagnosed with ADD/ADHD.   Doctors encourage parents to sign their children up for a sport or recreation class.  They also note that some children with ADD/ADHD respond well to martial arts or other non-team sports. Such activities impose structure on your child's time and provide an outlet for a high energy level.

We believe Lil' Dragons will give tremendous benefits to your children!

Besides all that - It is a lot of fun!!!
