Children 3 - 5 years old
"Little Warrior's"
"To have the Eyes of an Eagle,
The Ears of a Wolf and the Heart of a Bear."
anything you've ever experienced?
Well, we've taken the best training and
techniques from all aspects of martial arts, physical fitness, and
scholastic programs and developed them into our Little Warrior program.
Our program is a theme based curriculum that is designed to
hold the child's attention while motivating them to excel and learn new
skills. We have incorporated three virtues in our program that are
represented by cartoon style characters of the wolf, bear and eagle. The
eagle represents total focus, the wolf represents extreme listening
and the bear represents courage and strength. These are all tied into a
simple rewards system that keeps kids coming back for more, while,
giving them the desire to work hard and succeed in class. We have
received such accolades from parents that Kyoshi decided to release this
program to select martial arts school around the world in a variety of
martial art styles and it has yielded similar results. Since its
inception we have added on a Home Edition reward system which ties the
child’s activities at home to a similar reward system which allows
parents to monitor their child’s progress while rewarding the child at
their martial arts school.
At a young age there is a lack of activities that teach
skills that are beneficial to a child's future. Our program is designed
to help each and every child develop in a positive manner by teaching
them skills that will help them in school, around the house, socially
and, of course, in situations where they have to stand up for
themselves.
Besides traditional training in the martial arts, we work on
each child's individual abilities and utilize our skills to bring out
the very best in them. In many conventional sports there are always some
children who do very well and others who don't. We have a slogan...
“There are no bench warmers in our school.” Every child excels in this
program, developing their confidence in the process, so that they will
be able to deal with any situation.

Martial art training has been recognized as
one of the safest and best activities in the world for teaching children
self-esteem, self-discipline, self-confidence and life skills.
Psychologists, guidance counselors and teachers recommend martial arts
for children with Autism, A.D.D., A.D.H.D and discipline issues.
Imagine your child learning all this while also staying fit, developing
balance and coordination, focus, patience, respect and fine motor
skills.
Discover how your child can pick up true, wholesome values from learning how to block, punch and kick as you watch your
child increase in confidence, energy, and spirit. Stand and be dazzled as your child becomes unstoppable with GREATER ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT, UNSHAKABLE SELF-RESPECT AND INCREASED STRENGTH AND FITNESS IN BOTH BODY AND MIND. Yes, all of this comes from learning to block, kick, and punch.Developed and introduced by Master Ryan P. Blanchard the Kajun Martial Arts curriculum consists of Choi Kwang Do,Tae Kwon Do, Karate, Aikido, Jujitsu, and Hapkido. In addition to these martial arts styles Master Blanchard has incorporated teaching methods from leading teachers and motivational speakers such as Tony Robbins to make the learning process fun as well as educational.
Choi Kwang Do (CKD) was developed by Grandmaster Kwang Jo Choi. CKD martial arts recently celebrated its twentieth anniversary at the Georgia International Convention Center.
Thank you for everything Dennis and Leonor Prairieville, Louisiana
Choi Kwang Do's training methods and concepts are unique in the fitness industry. Recent research helps explain how CKD movement directly benefits the nervous system. In fact, we could say that coordinated movement is learning. Muscular activities, particularly coordinated movements such as those found in CKD, appear to stimulate the production of neurotrophins, natural substances that stimulate the growth of nerve cells and increase the number of neural connections in the brain. Unlike traditional martial arts that employ homo lateral movements which are harmful to the human body and stressful to the brain, CKD movements are cross lateral like a baby's crawl.
The CKD techniques work both sides of the body evenly: hands and feet, left and right side, all this in
coordination with the eyes. As a result, the corpus collosum (the "nerve" that connects the left and right side of the brain) becomes more fully developed. The coordinated movements activate both hemispheres of the brain, which heightens cognitive function and increases the ease of learning.Though modern science is helping us appreciate the role of the body and the need for movement in learning, modern life may be making it harder than ever to benefit from this discovery. Today, children tend to spend large amounts of time with televisions, computers, and video games, developing lifestyles that preempt regular exercise. When we do move in our modern society, it tends to be competitive or compulsive, increasing the risk of early injuries. In Choi Kwang Do, personal development rather than sports competition is paramount. Living in today's world is highly stressful; society is plagued by a fear of personal violence, amplified in the media. Too often, the available alternatives to stress and peer pressure are negative coping mechanisms such as drug use. Combined, these factors decrease the ability to learn, to be creative and to reach a full potential as a human being. Enrolling in a program such as Choi Kwang Do counters these harmful trends of stress and violence. Participants immediately discover that Choi Kwang Do movement profoundly improves learning, health, and creative stress management.
Stress is the root cause of many of the learning problems found in people labeled hyperactive, ADD, ADHD, and emotionally handicapped. In America today, all age groups experience stress. Research at the university of Akron in Ohio has shown that martial arts may be an effective treatment to combat ADD, rather than Ritalin. Over a 10-week period, researchers studying a small group of clinically hyperactive children found that those who took martial arts lessons, for nexplained reasons, learned to control their impulsive behavior better than children of the same age who did not receive training.Kajun Martial Arts instructors teach students to reduce the effects of stress. Strategies found only at Kajun Martial Arts include learning to use more exercise, particularly integrated movement requiring balance and coordination that assists nervous system development and function. Physical movement from earliest infancy through adulthood plays a vital role in the creation of nerve cell networks that are the essence of learning.
Choi Kwang Do is a highly refined and scientific martial arts form, distinctively different from all classical martial arts in concept and movement. It should not be put into the same category with many of hundreds of sub styles of existing martial arts systems.
