Guilderland Martial Arts Philosophy Statement

Guilderland Martial Arts is committed to providing families with the opportunity to  learn martial arts in a friendly, fun atmosphere where they can become confident without being afraid to try.  Many people  find martial arts training intimidating and often shy away even though they have a strong desire to explore it.  Martial arts is best taught and learned in a fun and reassuring environment.  Our goal is to provide just that environment.

Grasshoppers:  Wednesday, Friday, Saturday

 Adult 

The adult class is designed for men and women who desire to train with other adults. The classes focus on self defense, physical fitness, self confidence, agility and coordination in a positive environment.

 Family

The family class is designed for adults and children to train together in a cooperative environment. Parents have an opportunity to partner with their children as well as with other adults. When parents train with their children they gain a direct understanding of the challenges all students must overcome.  Additionally parents gain yet another opportunity to act a positive roll model . 

Youth

The Youth Program is tailored to meet the needs of elementary school children from first through sixth grade.  An important component of this program is the focus on character enrichment and citizenship.   As our children seem to become more and more sophisticated in today’s fast paced world, parents often desire external reinforcement of the values taught at home. Martial arts training offers an excellent balance between both  physical and personal development.

This program is designed for children 4 to 6 years old.  The program focuses on self control, confidence, coordination and fun, fun, fun.  Children will develop their character through class participation and completion of  star character charts at home.  Children will advance through different Taekwondo belts at a pace suited to their age and progress toward joining the Youth Program
