Soo Do and Your Child


At the West Haven Academy of Karate we are very
concerned with the well-being and education of our children. We understand that younger students have shorter attention spans
than the typical adult student. Our unique children's program uses interesting and enjoyable methods to keep the student's
attention and to teach our young students skills that they can use for life.
- We promote non-violent
resolution to conflict. Our methods help children to explore and understand the conflicts that can confront
them in their lives.
- Children will learn confidence,
self-discipline and self-control as
they learn to act and react to the world around them.
- Our young students are treated
with respect and are taught to return the same respect to others.
- We believe in praise, encouragement and
positive reinforcement. We encourage our students to maintain good academic
grades, impressing upon them the importance of balancing their physical, as well as, their mental growth.
- We teach our students the value of making goals and working towards meeting them. In this way we can assist them in getting into
the achievement / self esteem spiral.
The more they achieve the greater
their self-esteem. The greater their self-esteem the more they want to achieve.

Our

- Throughout
the course of each year we regularly provide educational clinics, seminars, optional tournaments and various social events,
for which, our students can have opportunities outside the classroom to meet and socialize with others who share their common
visions and goals.
