Kids Martial Arts

Fun, Fitness, and Life Skills

At Kemp’s, we believe that martial arts is more than just kicking and punching.

It’s a fantastic way for kids to develop confidence, discipline, and respect, while also getting active and having fun.

Kids Kickboxing

Our Kids Kickboxing classes are a great way for your child to learn self-defence skills, improve their fitness, and develop coordination.

In each class, your child will learn how to use their “eight limbs” effectively, while also developing important values like respect, patience, and perseverance.

We focus on creating a safe and supportive environment where kids can learn at their own pace.

Beginners will learn the basics, including kickboxing stance, basic movements, and technique.

They will work with partners to practise their skills and, when they feel confident with their abilities, will engage in light touch-sparring only (no hard hits) with other students.

Kids Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) is a martial art that uses ground-fighting techniques to defeat an opponent.

One of the reasons this is such a fantastic sport for children is the fact that strength and size don’t matter as much as skill and technique.

It is designed so that a weaker or smaller opponent can still defeat a larger and stronger one.

This makes it a great choice for children of all ages, especially those who may be smaller in stature or have low self-esteem or confidence. BJJ can help your child develop:

  • Self-confidence
  • Discipline
  • Respect
  • Patience
  • Timing
  • Fortitude

All students studying BJJ are required to wear the traditional uniform known as a Gi, including a belt. Grading takes place each term, and your child will learn what drills they are required to demonstrate, with lots of time during class to practise their moves.
