Is Mixed Martial Arts Safe for Your Child and The




When it comes to MMA and children the two words together are
quite controversial in society these days. Being a parent we know that
it is our job to make sure that our children are safe in everything they
do. There are many risks involved in everything they do and as with any
active contact sport such as football, baseball, basketball and yes
even cheerleading it is possible to break a bone or get a bloody nose
just as easy. In saying so reports have shown that there is less severe
injuries in mixed martial arts than most contact sports around.
Emotional,Behavioral
and Developmental (EBD) effects of the program strike high concerns in
some areas due to the myth behind martial arts.However, many research
studies show positive changes in children who join MMA. In a recent
study, behavioral statistics shown that in children that take Karate
between the age of 8-10 did not show any signs of aggression in tests.
Kids who train in martial arts are less prone to violence then those who
don't. It just so happens kids who start fights are the ones that have
no discipline, no boundaries or self-esteem.
The answer to the
question "How safe are the MMA PROGRAMS for your child"..amounts to
practicing safe technique and applying it with discipline and respect.
Martial arts programs are not intended to teach your child to apply
illegal techniques and misuse the art. Some Parents of young children
and even the public in general think this sport promotes violence but
that is a myth.Experts show that Martial Arts is very beneficial in many
ways and is not known as the sport with the reputation for "anything
goes fighting" or " no holds barred fighting" as it once did. Martial
Arts is excellent for children who have ADHD as it instills self-control
and concentration which are exactly the skills undeveloped in ADHD
kids. Integrity, Confidence and Social Skills are among the strongest
benefits that a child can gain during training.
When deciding
which martial arts school is safe for your child make a check list of
questions to ask. The first and most important step to take is visiting
the School in person. What better way then to EXPERIENCE the overall
feeling when you walk in the school. It is a good to idea to sit through
a few classes and see first hand how and what the Coaches are teaching
and see the environment they will be training in.Remember it is very
important that you find a Coach that your child is comfortable with.
First
impressions are lasting impressions.As a parent of a child currently
active in martial arts I'm amazed by the extent and level of personal
values he has acquired through his training.Take my word for it when I
say hesitation and fear was an understatement for me when my child was
practically begging to start Martial Arts Class and by saying that I'm
speaking from the heart as a concerned parent who is very involved and
up to date with programs such as these and the morals they stand for.
Seeing is believing, get involved by trying out the program yourself and
take advantage of the free offers they have monthly. This will be a
great time for you and your child to experience the positive side of
martial arts together.
