Frequently Asked Questions

Most frequent questions and answers about our Martial Arts Programs

Will My Child Become A Bully?

Blazing Trails Martial Arts focuses on teaching respect, self-discipline, and the responsible use of self-defense skills to our Tigers and Juniors. Students learn when to apply their training and when not to. Through these lessons, students become more confident in their ability to stand up to bullies, while developing humility and kindness toward others.

Are Parents Allowed To Watch?

We encourage parents to watch their children in our kids martial arts lessons. We love parents getting involved! And so do your kids. Even better… join into some of our martial arts classes for adults. Your kids will love that you have something in common. It will build a strong family bond!

Additionally, if you wanted some ‘me-time’, Simply drop them off, and go grab a coffee. They will greet you with a huge smile when you return, because they had SO much fun!

Do I Need To Be Fit For This?

What Do I Need To Bring To My First Martial Arts Lesson?

It's important to wear comfortable, athletic clothing. Skirts, for example, are not ideal for practicing kicks. Make sure to bring a water bottle to stay hydrated during fun and lively martial arts classes for both kids. Most students leave with big smiles, and so will you!

I'm Not Very Sporty or Coordinated, Will That Be A Problem?

Not at all.  In fact, many students starting in our adult martial arts classes would describe themselves like that before they started.  So you will fit right in! Give yourself some time, and you will be astounded at how much you improve!  You’ll find that our very experienced martial arts Instructors, are trained to keep their teaching simple.  So even the most uncoordinated person will develop ‘ninja-like’ skills!  Come see for yourself!
