Martial arts should be formed into a sport not just an enrichment.The martial arts program actually help teach self-discipline and socialization skills unlike other sports and fitness programs, choosing a martial art will pass all expectations. In terms of health, it will not only help to prevent common physical illnesses, but will improve mental health too. You will enjoy a better night's sleep, a clearer mind to think and work more and an ability to remain calm, yet careful . Your level of fitness will increase; you will become stronger, more quick and you will learn to endure when times get tough. Everything that you learn can be used in everyday situations and boost productivity in the work. Martial arts is not for anyone who wishes to use it wrongly against innocent people. Martial arts should be used to build on self-confidence and not to intimidate others. However, self-defense is something that we could all do with educating ourselves with. You just never know when you might be faced with a situation that requires you to defend yourself. Self-defense is a protective measure of which all the basics and more can be learnt alongside your chosen martial art. Martial arts is about discipline, respect, perseverance, training, freeing the spirit, and self-control. Generally doing any martial arts also increases your self esteem and ability to defend yourself. Depending on the art, you will also get very flexible. There have been many studies showing martial arts increases, on average, a persons spirituality and health. The sport should be held up to 3 to 5 days of week . The time should be 4:10 - 5:30 pm . The children must all have a ride to be allowed to be in the program to ensure that their safety is in good hands . Additionally , we should have a constant work place ( gym , outside , or etc.. ) .

Too many people think this is just about fighting. Its way more than that. my son learned more respect in a dojo than he ever did in soccer. should be treated like a real sport already.
