Samurai Warriors ages 8 to 10

Two children practising a martial arts stance in class

The Samurai Warrior (8 to 10 yrs old) classes are self defence focused based on a strong foundation of basic martial arts. We introduce a lot more controlled partnered training so students can work on distance and timing in a safe learning environment.

Many of our Samurai Warriors go on to achieve their Junior Black Belt and during the last year of primary school we move them up to our Junior Adults (high school) programme.

Our high school programme takes the training on to a new level of fitness, physical application and technical development. It is an age appropriate, self defence based martial arts training class. New students can start with a $19.95 trial of 4 classes, and you get a new uniform to keep (valued at $124.95).

We also offer Ninjutsu training for primary school aged children in Thornbury Melbourne . All of our programmes are age appropriate, meaning that we teach different versions of techniques to each age group.
