Our Little Ninja program is there to provide young children with the specific life skills whilst offering energetic, exciting activities that aim to put the fun back into physical fitness.

The classes are specifically designed for ages 4 to 6 years which allows us to focus on the key areas that need developed at this point in their lives. 

We concentrate on the following life skills.

• Discipline
• Focus
• Coordination
• Balance
• Control
• Team Work
• Fitness
• Memory & Mental Fitness

Taking into account the age of our little ninjas, we don’t overwhelm them with a normal (traditional) martial arts program but instead focus on the positive life skills that serve them well for school and the rest of their lives.

​

We understand that a young child’s nervous system is different from an older child, so we spend a lot of time teaching fundamentals in order to build a strong foundation for when they do move onto the more complicated techniques.

​

Once the children reach a certain level of maturity and can demonstrate a strong understanding of the core skills needed, that’s when we introduce them to our ProComp Kids program which takes them further into their martial arts training.

Martial arts classes foster respect in all senses of the word. Your children will learn not only to respect others, but to respect themselves as well. Self-confidence is key in carrying respect into the home, school, and other social situations. Simply put, martial arts is about a lot more than learning how to punch and kick. It's about learning hard work, discipline, and perseverance. The lessons about respect your child learns through martial arts will mold them into a better person overall. Our program incorporates martial arts with other fun drills and activities, for a unique blend of activities that's both educational and engaging. Our curriculum draws from the traditional martial art of TaeKwonDo and the blended styles of  American Karate and Kickboxing that insures ur students get a very well rounded training regimen.  

We promote a positive social environment at ProComp Sport Martial Arts Academy that is inclusive and encouraging. Kids will have a chance to make memories with their existing friends, and make new friends too. All activities are fully organized and supervised, so you can be assured that your child's safety is a top priority while they're having fun with their peers. We have separate classes for our PreSchool aged children as well with a specific curriculum for their level that is age-appropriate.

Our kickboxing workouts incorporate kicking and punching for a dynamic, challenging experience. You’ll keep your body guessing as our trainers motivate and inspire you to empower your power with every style of kick and punch throughout the rounds. This class takes the spirit and movement of professional kickboxing and turns it into a fun fitness challenge focused on cardiovascular health.

Kickboxing is fabulously focused on your legs, glutes and calves. Our fun, high-energy environment provides a unique class experience every time.  We instill proper Techniques so you learn the proper way to kick the bag prior to jumping in with both feet! Get ready, you are going to look great and have fun getting there! 

XMA is a combination of techniques, methods of movements and philosophies from all martial arts styles. It is a mixture of virtually all martial arts styles blended together with high-flying acrobatics and gymnastics. It is what you are seeing on TV, in the movies and on the internet. The goal of XMA is to take the skills our students have and take them to the “Xtreme” level and to challenge the students to become better than they thought possible. Common moves include the butterfly roundkick, backtuck, 540 Crescent kick, double jump front kick, L-kick, and Kip-up. This is blended with the use of weapons such as Nunchuku, Bo Staff, Kamas, and Sword!

Mike Chat, creator of XMA, describes his program as: “The ability to perform highly skilled moves and also the ability to perform basic moves and make them look spectacular! This is why XMA is not only for the elite level athletes and competitors, but also for beginners at the entry level as well. It is the look in one’s eyes and position of one’s body that tells the story. It’s not only about punching and kicking, or jumping and flipping, but more, showing strength through the mind as well as the body. To stand planted with your feet on the ground and command the attention of the audience without sound or movement, using only the look in your eyes and the strength of your stance, actually shows more power than any punch, kick or flip. That’s Xtreme!”
