For Our Shaolin Kids:
Our purpose is singular and yet complicated. At Shaolin Martial Arts of Paintsville we want our Shaolin Kids to be as great as they can be. This will involve instilling in each of them a sense of respect. Not only for others, but also for themselves. Success starts with the single idea of "I can be more than I am."
Our instructors are ready to promote habits and lifestyles that will cultivate the most positive aspects of a young martial artists life. We want our Shaolin kids to not only thrive in our classes, but to succeed in all ways, from academics to athletics and everyday home life as well. Our instructors will achieve this by:
Providing a Foundation of Martial Arts self-defense techniques while allowing them to progress at their own pace.
