Children's Classes

 

It is comparitively rare for children to have the opportunity to study the art of Ninjutsu. At the present time Budo Warrior Schools only offers a childrens class in Gloucester, though there are two new classes opening in 2015.

 

 

All childrens classes are run by Sinead Byrne, an eight times world Kenpo Karate Champion and Ninjutsu Budo Warrior Schools black belt. Sinead is a vastly experienced martial artist with extensive involvement, understanding and background in teaching martial arts to children. Sinead also works with a variety of children in her day job, including vulnerable young people and children with special educational needs. She is very dedicated to teaching young people all round and always endevours to include each child equally.

 

Classes are suitable for children from the age of five years old. Each class consists of a fun learning experience and unlike other martial arts classes the focus is placed on teaching children as individuals and not as a group of people. Sinead puts a lot of emphasis on each child, helping them to improve in their own way. This teaching style helps to build confidence and life skills that can be used inside and outside of classes, while having fun and keeping active.

 

Sinead has used her vast experience to develop a completely child friendly martial art, Kenbu. Which is a mix of Kenpo Karate and Ninjutsu. Taking aspects from two martial arts and using the concepts and ideas from both, that work best for teaching children. Using the serious training of Bujinkan Ninjutsu to bring out good balance, confidence and practical training. While also bringing the fun, sporting elements of sparring from Kenpo. Mixed together it will proove to be a true child friendly martial art. And not a adult martial art taught to children. 

 

Feel free to take your child along to any of our classes, to have a look and meet Sinead and the other children. Your child may join in or just watch the first time, whichever is more comfortable for them. The first class is completely free.

 

We also have a once off joining fee (varies in each class), which when paid gets your child a years membership and the part each child wants the most, a free training suit and belt. There is no pressure to sign up, Sinead only asks that you make sure your child definitely wishes to stay training before you pay out for membership.
