Designed for all abilities, our Tigers program helps preschoolers and young children (ages 3-6) improve their confidence, motor skills, balance, and flexibility. Students will develop important skills like listening, problem-solving, and decision-making, all while having fun and embracing a “black belt attitude”!
Each Tiger has the opportunity to earn animal patches to display on their uniform, along with progressing through our belt system.

By participating in Tigers, your routine will not be disrupted as our classes have a consistent schedule. We teach in a structured learning environment that provides a meaningful dependable experience.
Kids who train in martial arts tend to achieve higher success rates in school. Why? Because martial arts instill essential traits like discipline, focus, goal-setting, drive, perseverance, and a positive mental attitude.
In our Tigers class, children also learn teamwork and conflict resolution skills in a supportive environment.
Not all everyone is born star athletes, but anyone can become one! Martial arts builds balance, flexibility, coordination, endurance, speed, and strength.
In Martial Arts, you train in a group, but each journey is personal. You can focus on your own progress without the pressure of letting a team down. Discover your potential in a supportive and empowering setting!
