WARRIOR KIDS DAY PROGRAMS #WARRIOR
Andrew Bloch
Each week highlights a different warrior from history from Pirates to Native Americans to Vikings. Each week includes games and crafts that enhance knowledge of the warrior's history. These are very active and educational programs for kids ages 6-12. Each day combines a significant active portion for exercise as well as a sit down/craft time to cultivate the mind. Andrew Bloch is a 3rd degree black belt who has been teaching martial arts and fitness to the metrowest area for over 15 years.
Session 1: Pirates
July 13-17
(Ages 6-12)
This is always our biggest hit and this year will be the best yet! We'll be making foam swords for battle and costumes out of old pants and paint. Throw in some treasure maps, some gold, and a few "ARRRR's" and we are ready for sailing the high seas.
Session 2: Native Americans
July 27-31
(Ages 6-12)
During Native American week we'll be making SAFE bows and foam arrows, using face paint, and learning some traditional Native American games. On top of that we'll learn some of the history of our countries ancestors and some of the languages that were used at the time.
Session 3: Fight Choreography/Stage Fighting
August 10-14

In this session, kids will learn the basics of laying out a fight scene for the movies or stage. The emphasis is on making it look real while maintaining safety. Our padded environment and experienced teachers ensure safety. By week's end the kids will have learned a complete sequence.
Session 4: Vikings
August 17-21
(Ages 6-12)
