why mixed martial arts for children?
self-defense is not just fighting
Most schools have implemented zero-tolerance bullying policies. These policies reduce the number of physical fights, but do not prevent verbal harassment, one of the most pervasive and damaging forms of bullying in today's age.
Keeping this in mind, Paladin Combatives’ Jr. MMA program not only is taught by professional fighters, Black Belts, and Law Enforcement Officers. We also implement Verbal Assertiveness Training into our regular curriculum.
We utilize a series of role-playing exercises to teach kids how to identify and manage the common threats associated with verbal harassment and relational bullying.
Our students learn how to differentiate between "bullying" and "joking," and not only are kids taught how to speak assertively when necessary, but they also learn how to use direct eye contact and confident posture to deter bullies from targeting them.

bully protection
Bullying is a growing problem for children. It can destroy their self-confidence, their self-esteem, and negatively impact their view of the world. This negative impact makes a child more vulnerable than most realize.
Our program provides your child with the tools needed to overcome physical, verbal, and psychological harassment, so they are so confident in themselves that no bully will try to harass them.
bully prevention
Martial arts helps prevent bullying by building up these children’s confidence in other arenas, so that they won’t need to resort to bullying for attention or approval.
We prepare your child to deal with bullies without turning them into one. We emphasize discipline, responsibility, and respect throughout the course to ensure they never abuse their power.
deter child predators
Child predators identify victims who appear vulnerable. They often look for a child with low self-esteem and an obedient/compliant personality.
