What is the Lil Dragons program?
The Lil' Dragon program is in age and ability appropriate, specially designed training program
that teaches more than just martial arts. It teaches youngsters to be good citizens and prepares
them for life, or at least school. This program includes lessons in safety and life skills as well as
physical martial arts skills. These skills help the students become well rounded by promoting the
child's social, emotional, physical, and intellectual growth.

Ages 4 - 6
What separates the Lil Dragons program from traditional children's martial arts classes?
We approach the physical portion of this class as a martial arts -- focused physical education
class. All skills and promotions are based on participation and course completion. Our primary
objective is to get the students involved, giving 100% effort, having fun and 'playing.' Of course,
this Lil' Dragon curriculum is age and ability appropriate so that their "play" is actually their
"work". The primary focus in Lil' Dragon class is to develop fundamental basics, creating a solid
foundation to build upon in the older years. Therefore, we teach very few of the martial arts skills
that you will see in older children's programs and instead focus on the skills they need BEFORE
entering the older classes.
What are the benefits of your program for children and their parents and how is this
program better than a traditional class for children of this age?
The Lil' Dragon program is tailor made for this young age group and will therefore, meet their
needs better than a traditional martial arts class which is targeted for an older clientele. Lil

Why Lil Dragons as opposed to other sports?
Unlike other sports, martial arts is lifestyle training focused on whole child development -
mentally, physically, socially and emotionally. Although students can compete with their skills, it
isn't recommended for this young age group yet as more focus is placed on doing their personal
best and not on being "better" than others.
