Teen Martial Arts Classes build super-teens through Focus, Fitness and Fun

Strength

As Teens turn into adults, it's vital for them to build real, useable strength. This point in their musculoskeletal development is when building strength is most important, and at Teen Martial Arts, they'll have a blast doing it!

Flexibility

Teens grow rapidly, and as that happens, it's normal for their muscles to tighten. We've found that because we make flexibility an accessible, built in part of our program, they make dramatic gains in flexibility, carrying that improved quality of life into adulthood.

Agility

It's well known that growing teens can be clumsy or have challenges with proprioception as they're not use to their new, bigger bodies, but it doesn't have to be that way! In Teen Martial Arts, they'll Increase balance, awareness and precision, quickly turning into real life Ninjas, and they'll love every second of it!

Why Layton parents love Teen Martial Arts Classes

Class Times

Teen Martial Arts class times were designed by families for families - you're almost guaranteed to find a time that works for your families needs.

Community

Your teen will be in a positive environment, surrounded by peers striving towards the same goals that are. They'll build friendships and be supported in their journey every step of the way.

Life Skills

There's literally no better place for Teens to learn life skills like Persistence, Determination and Empathy. They'll listen and learn from role-model instructors, and they'll love it!

Physical Skills

It's more than awesome ninja moves - it's proprioception, balance, agility and more - physical traits that will remain with and benefit your teen for the rest of their lives.

Mission

Traditional Sports vs. Teen Martial Arts Classes

Traditional Sports

Traditional Youth Sports don't work for most kids.

For many families, the emotional cost and lack of real benefits simply isn't worth the effort and time commitment

Being left out if you're 'not good enough'

unhelpful, untrained amateur coaches

Physical skills only; no focus on character development

Too many practices and games, leaving precious little family time

Kids Martial Arts

Kids Martial Arts is the perfect solution

‍All of the benefits of a group sport - teamwork, interaction with peers, learning with a group, but with all of the advantages of an individual activity

All kids are always included, physically gifted or not

Trained, caring, professional instructors

Physical skills kids love, but an intentional focus on life skills kids need

Reasonable expectations for attendance and participation leaving plenty of family time

"I put my son in karate to build his confidence and give him something to do, besides video games, he hasn't been doing it very long, but I already see the difference in him. The instructors are all very kind, and patient with him, I am very happy with everything they do!"

Joshua Kelsch

Parent

"I can’t recommend Team Justus martial arts enough. From the moment my kids started, the energy and professionalism of the instructors was immediately clear.What truly sets them apart is their incredible commitment to all students and those with special needs. My sons, who are on the autism spectrum, have thrived in the structured environment. The instructors do an amazing job at knowing when the students need more hands-on support and when to give a child space. The instructors leverage the structured predictable nature of karate to help reduce sensory overload and anxiety of all students.This is more than just a karate class. It is a confidence building environment."
