Our Promise to Children

A message to our children by David Galbraith and company

When we engage with a child  I  believe it's our duty to what is right by that child. It's our moral and ethical obligation so we have built this into our structure and training . 

​

​

Behavior

The way our whole model works is that each child should be treated with compassion and without judgement .  Challenging behavior is a result of someone who is struggling in that environment. We always aim to help children find their own solutions with a nudge in the right direction whether it be through play, sparring, magic,coin collecting, art or conversation.  We are great believers that  effective behavior is led by example so positive outcomes begins with our conduct.

​

Environment

If behavior is communication then what is environment? I always ask myself this when I see a child struggling. Their is something in the environment that they are struggling with and communication at that stage can look like aggression , defiance or completely shutting down. We are also part of that environment so our aim is to nurture that environment.

 

Nurture

To us nurture looks like providing a safe space for a child to express themselves without fear of punishment or judgment. Building a child's self esteem through fun,safe and educational activities .Communicating with them on their level in and understanding compassionate way. Really listening to what they are saying and taking time to offer support however big or small their challenges may seem.

​

Discipline

This is an interesting one. Most children believe that discipline is a form of punishment. So we often spend time in our sessions teaching the value of discipline, what it means and how to implement it.  Martial arts is a great vehicle for this type of learning as it can be implemented in a way that it's constantly challenging but not overwhelming. You can also use martial arts to set up a test environment so they can see for themselves what discipline really means.
