I was bullied and no way is that going to happen to my kid. Not doing this so he can beat boys up more easily just no kid will bully someone who does karate.|||3 is a good age|||While I agree with you about the bullies, I think you also should encourage your child to like karate for all the other things it gives a person. I know of places that start at age 3. It teaches coordination, balance, sportmanship not just how to fight.|||If your child is under 5 years old you are only paying for a babysitter.|||Kid as young as 5 years old can take Karate.|||My opinion,Karate is not as powerful as muay thai or kickboxing,MT will train ur sons shins and forearm bones and it will make them stronger and doesn%26#039;t hurt much,and they can start as early as THREE!|||I think 5 is the best age to start learning a martial art.|||Have a look within your local area.
My 2 boys go to kick-boxing classes. They are 9 and 6 years old.|||I started at 6. It varies depending on the maturity level of the child.|||Yes they will. As an ego boost. There are more adult ways of dealing with than that|||Usually 3 or 4. My son was in one at the age of 3. They don%26#039;t learn too much at that age in karate, but they start learning the fundamentals of team sports, and they have fun!|||The reason your seeking it is wrong today. The culture of the streets is incarceration if they feel you have skills and are a threat.
Even being involved in a fair fight will send you to jail. The laws are not what we want or how it is always portrayed on the web. Have your son learn proper interaction with others, then have him learn Martial Arts to better his abilities in so many ways.
From learning dedication and self sacrifice, to respect and discipline. This is the values you want your son to learn, how not to have to fight, or hopefully need to.
If he is an athlete, then he can get into sport martial arts and compete. This is the way to use martial arts in a fight, not in a street or at school. And certainly not as a way to interact and do well in school or with other kids.
A good MA teacher will inspire your child to want to do well in all areas of life. This inspiration is the needed requirment that a teacher must carry to qualify to be a teacher. It takes a dedicated student, and this concept. Many teachers nevr teach the direct lesson their students learn, yet thru them they can learn alot. Teachers and fighters are not always the same thing. Some can excell in one way or the other, yet both qualify as MA%26#039;s. So maybe your son will or wont like to fight.
And Merry Xmas|||I started at 5
Karate is a self defense art .|||My one here is age 5, But they always allow younger kids there, just to watch and get involved.|||it depends on the school, my taekwondo school lets kids 3 years and up go, but they don%26#039;t really learn fighting they learn life skills. they don%26#039;t actually start learning to fight until 7. still, having the %26quot;I take karate%26quot; thing is still helpful, and even (especially) when they%26#039;re young it still increases self-confidence, and the one person bullies are least likely to attack is the kid with head held high, standing up straight, looking confident. bullies look for the easiest target.|||we it all depends on the level of your child not age, you dont want to send them and they not understand cause then that would be a waste of money.|||as soon as you want them to get suspended from school for bullying.|||Whenever your kids are focused enough to pay attention for the duration of the class and make an effort. My school is Taekwondo not Karate, but we usually start around 5 years old. We have made exceptions for 3 year olds that pay attention and follow along quite well. Try playing a challenging game for 50 minutes. Does your child whine and complain? Or does he try and seem to have fun? You should judge on a case by case basis.|||i don%26#039;t think age matters (to a point). i believe it all depends how comfortable your child is around that environment/atmosphere setting.|||Talk to the local teachers and see if their programs welcome children.
I don%26#039;t see how you can start too early.
My teacher started at the age of six and was training prison guards at the age of fourteen.
The time is now.|||for actual training i would say you can get them started by 5 but they wont actually comprehend what your teaching them till they r around 8 or 9|||in my old martial arts class (not karate which is all strikes but a diffrent branch which is strikes, throws, rolls, breakfallin.etc)
it spanned all ages and our teacher adjusted for each age, i know its not karate but check out the link below
merry christmas|||As soon as your child shows an interest in those classes, whether that%26#039;s as young as 2 or as old as 20. As painful as your childhood was, you can actually cause your child to dislike karate by forcing him/her to take it when he/she doesn%26#039;t want to yet.
I was also bullied mercilessly as a child, so I do know your feelings, but I also know how I reacted to things I was forced to do that I didn%26#039;t show an interest in.
If he never shows an interest, wait until you find out he gets bullied, then ask your child if he/she wants to try it out. By making the decision theirs, they will take to the classes with more vigor.|||My fiance is a second degree black belt and his sensei will not take any child younger than 7. This is so that they are old enough to understand that they should not be using their marital arts on people other than those that are attacking them. Karate will give him more confidence in himself so that if he is bullied he will be more likely to do something about it. Not beat the kid up of course but let someone know what is going on and be able to help himself.|||I am in karate and people start when they are 4-5 yrs. of age, it%26#039;s called little dragons.|||The youngest I have seen in my son%26#039;s class is 4yrs. but I would call some studios and ask them. My son started when he was 5 in a kids class at the beginning of the year he will be transferring to the regular classes for everyone he is 7 now. In the little kids class they teach them basics and talk a lot to them about what to do if someone bullies them. They also talk a lot to them about what to do if a stranger approaches them which I really liked. It%26#039;s a good experience for kids really help self confidence.|||Most agree that three years of age is the best, because a kid%26#039;s brain is like a sponge %26amp; can obtain the information more easily %26amp; their bodies are more flexable.|||id prefer 7 or 8 6 at the youngest. If ou want him to fight get him to learn judo, BJJ, or kickboxing. Karate has to many mcdojos who will actually maake him fight worse.|||My daughter could not start till she was seven, but i think it varies in different clubs, good luck they`ll enjoy it.
