It is generally recommended that boys should be over 4 years old, and some training schools can start to learn karate when they are over 3 years old, that is, around 3-5 years old. However, most children have no prejudice and still need the persistence and encouragement of their parents.
The benefits of children practicing karate
1. Stay healthy
The movements of karate are easy to learn, and there are many kinds of boxing in the movements. Kicking, cutting, stretching legs and arms can effectively enhance children's muscles and strength, improve the elasticity of children's tendons, ligaments and muscles, effectively promote children's growth and development, and enhance their physical strength and flexibility.
Step 2: Puzzle.
As long as reasonable and scientific karate training is carried out, it can bring good stimulation to the brain. In the process of practicing karate, we can not only contract skeletal muscles, but also give full play to children's right brain functions such as spatial perception, experience and type recognition, which is very beneficial to the development of children's right brain functions such as spatial transformation and body perception, and can effectively improve children's thinking in images and creativity.
polite
Karate pays attention to etiquette, which can not only improve physical fitness and human function, but also improve the comprehensive quality of practitioners' spirit, mind and morality. Karate advocates the martial spirit of "ceremony begins and ceremony ends", and pays attention to learning ceremony before learning, martial arts before learning morality. In karate training, children can understand the meaning of "ceremony" and know how to express it.
How to choose a karate training school
1. See if the hardware facilities are complete.
A good karate training institution must have a good training venue, which is large enough to pass the test on the hardware facilities and has complete safety protection facilities, because if the safety of the trainees cannot be guaranteed, there is no need to exercise.
2. See if the details are neat.
I remember there is such a rule: one of the important criteria for judging the quality of a company is to see if their toilets are clean enough. Therefore, after seeing the hardware facilities of training institutions, we should also pay attention to the details of training institutions-sanitary conditions.
3. See if humanistic feelings are in place
Through dialogue and contact with the principal or coach, students can intuitively feel the overall quality of employees in this training institution.
4. See if the blood is pure.
A good coach is a business card. Regular karate training institutions will have a perfect coach training system, and will also tell you the schools of karate training institutions, maps passed down by teachers and so on. A good karate coach will teach students how to respect their teachers, how to face winning or losing, and how to understand everything, instead of blindly pursuing martial arts accomplishments.
5. See if the school qualifications are standardized.
At present, many karate training institutions are not very formal, and there is no certification from the Education Bureau and the Sports Bureau, and there is no qualification for examination. When choosing a karate training institution, we should examine the relevant school qualifications.
At the same time, now training institutions will have their own websites and publicity methods, the evaluation of people around them, and so on, and how to have word of mouth and credibility.
6. See if the curriculum system is perfect.
Regular karate training institutions have professional teaching content outlines, step-by-step curriculum systems and specialized teaching R&D teams, and constantly upgrade and reform karate teaching courses.
The full-time coach will follow up the feedback at any time according to the training situation of the students, so that the students can progress and grow in an orderly manner. The coach will often communicate with the parents of adult students or young students about the training situation and shortcomings, and set improvement goals.
7. See if the students' mental state is full.
Observing the mental state of students in training institutions is also one of the conditions that can reflect whether a training institution is excellent, because students are the main body and their feelings are often the most direct. An excellent training institution can not only teach students the spirit of martial arts, but also make themselves happy and confident with this spirit.
