Youth
Life at the ages of 4-10 are likely to bring new challenges both academically and socially. A constructive after-school activity such as a youth martial arts training program can help your child with these challenges. This is where Matt Fields Martial Arts Academy, serving the Monroe, Louisiana and surrounding areas can help. We have a specially designed curriculum for youth age students. This program represents the beginning and intermediate levels of youth martial arts training. Students learn about goal setting, self-defense, and vital anti-bullying tactics in a fun and action-packed environment.
Teens
The junior high and high school years (ages 11-15) are a formative point in a student’s life. This is the time where their self-concept really begins to take shape. Students are often searching for the right fit for themselves among their peers. This is an exciting experience, but a very challenging one as well. Matt Fields Martial Arts Academy features a positive environment for teens. When a student becomes part of our teen martial arts program, they join a group of like-minded peers. Students experience growth mentally, emotionally, and socially in our program. And there are many exciting training, competitive, and leadership opportunities that enhances the student’s Matt Fields Martial Arts Academy experience.
