Kids Specialty Programs in Barrie

Listening to the needs of parents and kids who wanted specialty programs, RMA Karate Centres is now taking registration for two new programs specific for young kids and one of these programs is offering a free first class.  Both programs running out of RMA’s Barrie south location are extremely affordable with a low fee of only $15 per month and are pay as you go with no long term commitments.

  

World Karate and Kickboxing Champion Tressa Young will be offering a free kids kickboxing class on Tuesday September 15^th. The class runs for 40 minutes (6:15pm to 6:55pm) and is for ages 7 to 12 years old.     Unlike a cardio kickboxing class kids will be kicking & punching bags and working with partners all the while having fun while getting fit.  No experience is needed and  anyone interested in continuing after the first free class can sign-up that night for a full month of lessons at only $15 pay-as-you-go.

Yoga Instructor Jessica Harvey will be instructing a girls only Yoga program for ages 8 to 17 with classes running every Tuesday 5:45pm to 6:15pm.  The girls only yoga program is open to all levels and all body types with absolutely no experience needed.  Classes start Tuesday September 15^th with registration required and fee of only $15 for a full month of lessons.

“There is a need for both of these programs and a need for these programs to be assessable to everyone at an affordable price.  The girls only Yoga makes sense and Jessica is a great role model and instructor for the girls.  She held a free trial class recently and the group of girls who took part in the yoga class just loved it.  My kids kickboxing class is an extension of my adult kickboxing class and just made sense.  We use bags, mitts, gloves and everyone loves it.  I’ve already started taking several registrations for the free class and I’m excited to teach it.  We have a good mix of both boys and girls for the kids kickboxing and I can’t wait for September 15^th “, RMA owner and instructor Tressa Young.

Young’s resume in the martial arts is extensive including winning 64 world medals (37 of which are gold) at the World Karate & Kickboxing Commission’s world championships that have been held in Europe and North America.  Young has been on the national team 10 times and continues to grow her resume that includes stunt performing and acting.

KARATE STUDENTS MOVE UP A LEVEL

RMA Karate Centres recently held two formal belt testings where students demonstrated their technique, forms, self-defense and sparring skills to the black belt grading panel. 

The traditional belt testing was separated by age with the Little Dragons age 3 to 5 years having a shorter 30 minute testing compared to the students 6 years and over whose testing was determined by their individual belt level.  For some of the higher ranking students this meant a testing lasting four hours.  The 28 students did an amazing job showing their abilities and after passing were presented with their new rank.

The following students were presented with their new rank from World Karate Champion Tressa Young:

3 TO 5 YEAR OLDS:

Yellow Stripe – Alex Scarati, Devin West and Justin Pacheco

Orange Stripe – Brooklynne Buckingham and Semiah LaRochelle

Red Stripe – Henry Welsh
