Are Kids Martial Arts Classes a Good Idea?

submitted 10 months ago by kellychang to demcra

I am thinking about joining a martial arts program and noticed a lot of focus on kids martial arts classes in my area. Do these classes help build discipline and confidence, or are they mainly about physical training? If someone like myself is new to martial arts, I wonder if they are a good place to start. I would be very grateful to hear from anyone who has taken these classes before or knows what to anticipate. How do they balance learning techniques with personal growth?
