Let Us Help Your Child Learn Respect, Self-Control and Leadership Skills They Can Use The Rest Of Their Lives
WELCOME!!!
My name is Jai Johnson, and I want to take a moment to welcome you to our website, and to say thank you for taking the first steps in beginning Martial Arts for your child.

 I’ve taught kids Martial Arts classes since 1990 and have seen every kind of personality you can think of. Our Martial Arts program has helped all of them reach their goals. We constantly hear from parents on their child's improved ability to focus, show respect, improve their grades, and show more confidence in everything they do.

 I've seen children of all ages benefit from participation in martial arts. On this page, I'll tell you a little about the focus of our classes, and methods we use to achieve our results. Take a look at what we do, and see if our teaching philosophy would be right for you and your family.

 Again, thank you  for considering our Martial Arts program – it was the BEST thing that my parents did for me to help shape the person I am today.
Does Your Child Need A Bit More Direction In Their Life?
Unruly and disrespectful? Hard time completing tasks? Buried in computer games all day? Hard time handling peer and social pressure? 
As a parent myself, and after talking with thousands of parents just like you, I know the struggles kids and families face. When new students come into our school we often see:

  • Lack of Focus

    In a society full of technology overload, fast media, and multitasking, kids find it hard to focus on one activity at a time.


  • Lack of Respect

    Because of the level of social interaction through technology, children are not learning, or practicing, the skills of interpersonal communication. This often comes across as a lack of respect, or disinterest.


  • Lack of Motivation

    According to research, motivation is the best predictor of success. We teach self empowerment to motivate our students reach their full potential in everything they do.

  • Shyness

    Passive personalities have a difficult time interacting with others and attract bullying.


  • Lack of Follow Through

    Kid's have a tendency to quit when faced with a challenge or adversity.  It’s really hard for a child to see past the “now” and keep at something consistently.


  • Out of Shape

    Childhood obesity is a serious issue in our society. When tablets and smart phones are so accessible, getting kids to get off the screens and on their feet, is a real struggle.

We Can Help! 

Parents Report Excellent Progress After Beginning Martial Arts Training:

  • Increased Confidence

    We build confidence in a safe, fun, family environment. We consistently encourage our students and help them develop the ability to deal with new challenges and foster a sense of ambition, determination, and self confidence.


  • Knowledge of Self Defense And Awareness

    Your child will not only learn to defend themselves physically, but also gain the knowledge and skills necessary to deal with peer pressure and the emotional burden of bullying and cruel behavior.

  • Elevated Self Esteem

    The most valuable thing your child will get in our classes is a positive sense of self. Self-esteem comes from a sense of accomplishment, which is something your child will experience every class at JJKC. We believe that when a child believes they can do anything they set their mind to...they CAN!


  • Improved Self Control

    The strength of self-control is having the mental power to resist temptation. Students learn the difference between a controlled response and reacting to situations.

Our Children's Curriculum Is Specifically Designed With Their Growth In Mind

We don't just teach kid's how to kick and punch. We understand that children develop at different rates, and have designed our courses with that in mind. We teach "life skills" that help them grow into prominent young adults. We have "Drills for Skills" and "Life Lesson Character Development" programs embedded into our lessons. Children look forward to these fun and exciting drills!

Frequently Asked Questions
My child has no self control, will he/she use it to harm someone?
No. It seems counter-intuitive, but the reality is that martial arts isn’t just about kicking and punching, that’s only the vehicle. Character traits such as self-control, discipline, patience, respect and perseverance are the real lessons.
How often do we need to attend and when are your classes?
That really depends on you. We understand that each family is unique and has different reasons for coming to class. We have students who are successful in our program at only one day a week, and we have students who love classes so much that they beg their parents to bring them every time we’re open. If you click the button below, and enter your email, we’ll send you to the next page where we'll show you our schedule and Free Trial Offer. There’s a contact on that page to ask any additional questions you may have.
Are Martial Arts safe?
Safety is always our number one priority. Although you risk injury anytime you choose to participate in a sport, in our experience, we see far fewer injuries in our classes than in other children's activities (baseball, basketball, wrestling, soccer, softball, football, etc). 
My child is extremely passive and shy. How Can You Help?
We love to help kids find their confidence and support them as they leave their shyness behind.  The martial arts allows children to be successful in achieving goals every time they attend a class. Your child will see herself gaining strength, flexibility, coordination, and obtaining a host of other positive, confidence building, skills through martial arts classes. These new experiences will happen in an engaging, fun, social environment which will easily transfer into other aspects of her life.
How do you teach character development?
Just like our physical curriculum works to improve your child’s fitness, flexibility and strength, our character development curriculum improves your child’s life skills. We have a curriculum that rotates through really important subjects like Respect, Discipline, Focus, Patience, Acceptance, Kindness, Compassion and more.  
Can we try it before we sign up?
Absolutely! There's more information about our Free Trial Offer on the next page (click on the button below). It's important to make sure that we're the right fit for your family.
