This program was designed specifically for children ages 4-6 years old. In the Little Dragons Program, your child will learn and grow in a process that accommodates their skills and abilities. They will train with other children in their age group, and will not be distracted by younger or older classmates. Their training will not be slowed down due to the learning abilities of a younger child; and it will not be sped up to keep up with the capabilities of a pre-teen. This means better, more functional classes designed just for them. Your child will feel comfortable and more capable of achieving excellence. They are at an age where the more special they feel, the harder they will try.

The Little Dragons Program is structured on a rotational curriculum that teaches 8 very important skills. The 8 advanced skills selected for the Little Dragons program were broken down into specific requirements that each student will tackle at every belt level. This means your child will be sharper, more focused, and better developed physically, mentally, emotionally, and socially than a child who does not participate in a program strategically designed like the Little Dragons Program.

Here are the 8 advanced skills broken down in the Little Dragons
Program definition:

1.     Focus/Concentration- your child will learn how to focus all of their attention to the task at hand while committing themselves to learning and growing.
