Keller Kids MMA - Courage Week 3!

April's Life Skill is Courage;facing your fears, taking a chance, being brave! Other Examples: Tournaments We don't force our students to compete if they don't want to, however, we do encourage them to try it at least once. It's an amazing experience! Competing in tournaments isn't for everyone, and that's ok! However, if they choose to do so, we make sure that they are well prepared and feel confident in competing. We will drill a lot, have them learn some great moves that will help them out, and of course have them do lots of matches to help prepare them.

Jiu Jitsu Kids - Courage Life Skill Week 2

April Life Skill: Courage - to be brave! &amp;amp;amp;nbsp; What are some ways that we teach courage? One of the many ways that we help the kids learn to have courage is through the moves that we teach them. More often than not, our students are scared because they do not know what to do to defend themselves if they run across a bully or an overall bad situation.

This in return helps build confidence in themselves and gives them the courage in to defend themselves or even ....

Kids BJJ - Life Skill: Determination!

We like to teach the kids to have a Never Quit attitude! This is especially important so that they don't give up on something early, or decide to never start something because they don't think they can accomplish it. A lot of times in class, we see kids not want to have a match with one of the kids in class because they always lose against them. To turn things around, we encourage them to keep trying because one day they will finally win a match; and until then, they are only getting better! ------------------------------------ Kids BJJ CALL us today at 817-614-9325 Twitter — https://twitter.com/peakmma Facebook — http://www.facebook.com/PeakMMA Google+ ....

Peak has a great atmosphere full of wonderful teammates. No matter what your current fitness level and goals are, you will have support for your work and progress. I've been going to Peak, on and off, for 7 years. The on times make all of life night-and-day better than the off times. I've taken BJJ, Muay Thai, and fitness classes; you can't go wrong. Highly recommended - come see for yourself.
