Little Ninjas - Ages 6-11
Schedule: Mondays & Wednesdays 5:00 - 5:45 PM
Kids aren’t adults … but eventually one day they will be. We focus our kids classes toward giving them the life skills they need to grow into fully functioning successful adults. In martial arts, and their everyday lives. We use the martial arts as a fun way to teach them things like listening & communication skills, common courtesy, manners, how to treat one another, goal setting, respecting authority figures, respecting themselves and much more.
Our Little Ninjas class is good, clean fun for kids and a great way to give your child a head start in life. Our program is an excellent way for children to gain life skills that have a positive influence in their home, school and social interactions. Parents today are up against violent TV shows, movies and video games influencing your child. Little Ninjas gives children ages 6-12 a positive way to learn about the martial arts. The class is structured around building the fundamental coordination and body mechanics for moving into our more advanced programs as they get older. Along with physical fitness, your child will learn respect, discipline, self confidence and how to overcome insecurities. We focus on positive attitudes and personal growth of each individual child. You will feel at ease knowing your child is in a safe environment doing things that are constructive and good for them.
Our kids classes are in a fun, structured, challenging & supportive atmosphere. They will gain the tools they need to protect themselves on the playground, and grow into responsible functional adults.

Mindset Development
Here at KSK we believe that the physical training is truly a vehicle for mindset developments. We are constantly presented with new challenges, and problems to solve, barriers to our goals that are both physical and mental in nature. Our thinking process & guiding philosophies are paramount to any personal growth. These help a student to grow as a person, as a leader, grow as a member of the group, become a good training partner to others, and help us define a responsible use of the things we are taught. We take the time to actively teach these skills as part of our curriculum.
Rank Progression
When your Little Ninja starts his/her training their primary focus will be on establishing foundations and tools needed to participate in the concepts, techniques and training methods from various arts at higher levels. As they progress through their training they will gain experience and skill in the most well rounded martial arts curriculum available in the area.
At KSK Martial Arts your child will be exposed to training methods and techniques from Muay-Thai, Jun-Fan Gung Fu, Filipino Martial Arts (Kali, Panantukan, Dumog), Combat Submission Wrestling, Brazilian Jiu-Jistu, and more!
Our ranking system is unlike many that you might see when looking at other schools. We reward our students with ranks and merits based on the work they put into class, and the dedication they show to their training. Our ranking system is broken down into 5 levels marking the student’s progress through their training. For Little Ninjas, these levels are: White (Beginner), Yellow (Basic), Blue (Intermediate), Red (Advanced), and Junior Black Belt w/white stripe (Senior).
MERITS STRIPES: Attitude is everything. At each belt level, students must earn three merit stripes. These stripes are grey, and can be eared by demonstrating things behaviors such as respect, focus, discipline, leadership etc...
SKILL STRIPES: Our program is based on three primary skills: Striking, Clinching, and Grappling. Students are awarded a black stripe on their belt for each of these areas as they demonstrate an understanding of the objectives at each rank.
NEW BELTS: Students must earn three Merit Stripe (grey) and three Skill Stripes (black) before they can move up to their next belt.
