Instill Self Discipline


At American Kempo Karate Academy, we teach and demonstrate the most important discipline there is, SELF DISCIPLINE. Self discipline is the engine that makes every other character trait work. When students start learning their basics and techniques from their instructors, it takes self discipline to go home and practice on their own without anyone telling them. No real success is possible without self discipline which is why it is so important for kids to start learning it at an early age. Some simple examples, showing up for class on time each week helps build discipline. We require students to wear a certain uniform according to our protocol or rules of the school. Students need to be disciplined enough to be properly dressed for class. Another example is that students must prepare for their belt promotions so they can pass their tests. The real lesson is about being prepared. At AKKA, we make sure the students learn about self reliance for being prepared which is another form of self discipline. The road to self discipline is order and discipline in the classroom. Only go to a Martial Arts school that runs orderly classes. Avoid any free for alls. All AKKA's classes have order and have a balance of being disciplined but still having fun. For more information about discipline for YOUR child, visit http://www.akka.com/
