PRO Martial Arts is about far more than kicking, punching and karate workouts. From kids to adults, from beginners to experts, from karate, to kickboxing and much more - every class at PRO Martial Arts includes a core focus on building confidence, staying safe, and developing character.
PRO Martial Arts offers a cohesive blend of the best elements of traditional Korean martial arts. Incorporating elements of Tang Soo Do, Tae Kwon Do and Hapkido, the system provides the opportunity to develop a potent blend of strength, flexibility, coordination, and balance, while learning effective and proven self-defense techniques in a fun and energizing environment. But what truly sets PRO Martial Arts apart from the average martial arts school are our inspiring and motivational life skills training programs for students ages 4 to 17. These innovative, exciting, and proprietary programs are the difference between PRO Martial Arts and other schools:
The ARMOR® Program is comprised of 12 weekly lessons on Bullying Prevention and 12 separate lessons on Predator Prevention. The lessons were developed based on research from reputable sources specializing in child safety, child psychology, and crime prevention. Every lesson is stand-alone, ensuring students can enter the course at any time. This program is designed to ensure that students have the ARMOR® needed to stand tall against bullying behavior and predator activity – both online and in their everyday lives.
The Character Education and Advanced Leadership Programs are designed to use martial arts as a direct delivery vehicle for character education and leadership messages. These interactive programs are designed to provide students with instruction to build character and leadership skills, along with the tools to measure their progress and understanding. These programs are made up of short, informational modules, offered to students before martial arts instruction. The overall goal: Building Character for a Lifetime®.
