Summer is nearly here and we’d love to introduce some very special friends.
Little Champions is our karate program made just for 4–7 year olds, and it has its own team of characters: Master Leo, Sensei Snapper, Elegant Ellie, Magic Marley, Master Monkey and Muscle Mouse. Each one stands for a skill our youngest students practise in the dojo.
Meet the friends
- Master Leo · Confidence. Standing tall and trying new things.
- Sensei Snapper · Focus. Eyes forward, listening ears on.
- Elegant Ellie · Balance. Strong, steady stances.
- Magic Marley · Flexibility. Stretch, bend and reach.
- Master Monkey · Coordination. Arms and legs working together.
- Muscle Mouse · Strength. Little muscles, big kiai!
Teaming up with parents
Parents, you’re your child’s biggest cheerleader, and we love being part of the team. In the dojo we help your Little Champions build the skills you’re already encouraging at home: listening, trying new things, and believing in themselves.
If you’d like to bring the friends home, here are a few little ideas:
- Stand tall like Master Leo: ask your little one to show you their strongest karate stance.
- Balance like Elegant Ellie: who can stand on one foot the longest?
- Stretch like Magic Marley: a few gentle stretches together before bed.
- Listen like Sensei Snapper: play “Sensei says” (like Simon says), and see if they can listen for the magic word.
Whatever kind of day they’re having
Whether your little one is bouncing off the walls or ready for a nap after a big year, Little Champions is a happy place to move, reset and feel good, with plenty of fun and encouragement along the way.
