Martial Arts for Kids

Your child will learn basic martial arts techniques from Sempai Shelly Blanco of Ohio Martial Arts during this hands-on session at the library. The class covers fundamental kicks and punches alongside practical self-defense moves. Kids should come ready to be active—comfortable, moveable clothing is recommended since there will be sweating involved! Beyond the physical skills, this program teaches valuable life lessons about handling bullies and building confidence. It's designed for children ages 6 to 10 and combines exercise with character development. Come ready to work hard and enjoy yourself in a welcoming, supportive environment.
