Advancing Through the Program
New Stripe and Belt System for "Beginning Level" Lzfma Ninjas
As in our basic youth programs, the "Ninjas" Program will implement a stripe and belt system which will celebrate the students' accomplishments and encourage goal achievement. Parents will also award their ninjas a stripe for "listening the first time". Held approximately every nine weeks, "Ninja Performances" fees are $30.00 and as with the youth programs are by invitation only.
Monitoring Your Child's Progress
Ninjas instructors monitor your child's progress by his or her skill stripes. Make sure your child is consistent with his or her attendance so that he or she earns each skill stripe. Participation in Little Ninjas Belt Performances are by invitation. Those attending twice per week will most likely progress at a higher rate than those who attend once per week. A curriculum calendar highlights the weekly skills and any special notes.
Homework Assignments
Homework assignments that will help reinforce the martial arts skills that your child is learning. If your child has a difficulty with a specific skill, the instructor may ask you to work with him or her at home to improve the skill. Our goal is to help your child thoroughly develop the eight skills in the Ninjas Program. With your help, your child will learn and grow, demonstrating commitment and dedication to excellence in everything that he or she does.
