Start a child on a lifelong path of physical activity

Martial arts classes for kids in Palestine, Texas.

Children need lots of activity: using all the energy they have will help them grow up healthy and strong. But learning a martial art is much more than that: it also starts a child on a lifelong path of enjoying physical activity in a positive atmosphere.

A lack of physical activity is a problem that adults and children face not only in Palestine, but throughout the country. It is one of the main causes of obesity and deteriorating health in our society. To counteract the issue of poor health, we need to get people motivated and enjoy being active! This is one of the primary focuses at Shorin-ryu when engaging with our students, especially the younger ones. We make every effort to ensure our classes are as engaging as possible for Palestine youth, so that they will pick up the skills and attitudes that will make their lives easier and more rewarding.

Shorin-ryu organizes its martial arts classes for children around the idea that different children learn in different ways. We use a variety of different teaching techniques to help our students remember what we teach them, because the faster they learn, the faster they can move forward. If you are interested in enrolling your child in one of our classes then please contact us at (903) 729-1473.
