Build Confidence

Give Your Child a Head Start in Life

Do you want to see your child thrive, grow, and succeed? At Solo Martial Arts, we help kids hit their developmental milestones faster and more effectively. Our Basic Skills Programme for ages 5-6 is specially designed to build confidence, enhance focus, and develop self-control, all in a fun and supportive environment your child will love!

Here’s What Your Child Will Gain

Better Fitness and Coordination

Kids are bundles of energy! We help them channel that energy into building strength, improving balance, and learning body control, all through playful and engaging activities.

Emotional Control and Focus

It’s natural for little ones to feel overwhelmed sometimes. In our classes, they’ll learn calming techniques and focus building skills that will help them stay centred both at home and in school.

Sharpened Listening and Memory Skills

Following directions and remembering instructions can be a challenge for young children. Through our fun, interactive exercises, they’ll develop sharper listening skills and a better memory—essential for success in every area of life.

Improved Social Skills and Sportsmanship

Friendship and teamwork are just as important as learning martial arts. Your child will gain valuable social skills, learning to play fair, handle wins and losses gracefully, and support their peers, life lessons they’ll carry forever.

Why Families Love Solo Martial Arts

At Solo Martial Arts, we’re not just teaching martial arts, we’re setting kids up for long-term success. Every lesson is tailored to your child’s unique needs, ensuring they grow at their own pace with the guidance of expert instructors.

Some Wonderful Words From our clients

5/5

“I recently had my 1-2-1 introductory session here with Sensei Dee & it was absolutely brilliant! It was the perfect introduction to help me get started as an adult beginner with no previous experience. Dee was fantastic, she really made me feel at ease during the whole process which gave me the confidence I needed to move forward into her weekly classes. I look forward to getting started!”

- Rosie Lazzari

“I recently completed my intro sessions with sensei Dee who was brilliant and understanding about some physical limitations when training. Just finished my first session and it felt great. Genuinely fun whilst pushing me to get better and feeling comfortable the whole time. Cannot wait for the next few sessions”

- Asima Riaz

5/5

“I have signed my son up for children’s class last year. I was impressed with the mixture of techniques and the fact that Sensei Dee has child psychology under her belt! As I was observing how children develop their skills and followed Solo on social media I gave it a go with a 6 weeks course and I love it! Adults class is for all abilities and you almost feel like it is 1 to 1 the way they teach at Solo. I highly recommend giving Solo a go”

- Katarzyna Tambor

5/5

“My son had a placement evaluation last week and his first session week commencing 24th jan. He thoroughly enjoyed his first session and came out beaming with pride with his confidence stripe. I chose solo for the primary basis that it is based on child development and promoting positive social and emotional well-being as well as the physical development. I can’t wait to see how my son develops from accessing solo sessions.”

- Danielle Fleming

5/5

“I Just got my son enrolled for physical fitness, to build confidence. I got recommendation from my friend. I have to say it is the best decision I have taken. My son is so happy and excited for the next class. For the first time he went to bed on time, no restless sleep. It is the best decision I took and I will continue taking my son there. I highly recommend solo martial arts for kids and adults.”

- Ralic Gaming

5/5

‘Visited this evening for an introduction and my Son totally loved it! He is so excited to start next week. Dee really listened to what we wanted to get out of joining the Academy and really put him at ease by being so friendly and approachable. She made him feel like he could do it – which as a parent was the most amazing thing to see and observe! Just phenomenal! What an exciting chapter this is going to be. I would highly recommend – 5*”

Frequently Asked Questions

We believe weekends are important family time and a chance for kids to recharge. By offering a structured training programme during the week, we help families maintain a healthy balance while still providing opportunities for growth and learning. Plus, our weekday schedule ensures that training becomes a consistent part of your child’s routine without disrupting precious weekend moments.

At our private academy, we’re open Monday through Thursday, offering two structured training times to suit different family needs:

  • 4:30 PM: Ideal for younger children, allowing plenty of time to wind down and stick to their bedtime routine.
  • 6:15 PM: Perfect for families traveling from further away, giving extra flexibility to make it to class comfortably.

To ensure every child gets the attention they deserve, our class schedules are capped. Availability can vary, so please get in touch to find out what’s currently open for your preferred time. We’ll work with you to find the best fit for your family!

I know it can be tricky to know when your child is ready. Here’s what you need to know:

  • Our Basic Skills Programme is designed specifically for 5-6 years old.
  • However, we do work with 4 year olds too, as long as they meet the demands of the training.
  • Some 4 year olds develop faster and may be more like a 5 year old in terms of readiness.
  • We specialise in child development, so we understand the differences in development stages.
  • To ensure your child will thrive, we conduct a placement evaluation to assess their readiness.

To get started, simply complete our entry application form. This helps us understand your child’s needs and how we can best support their growth and development.

Have you ever wondered what sets our programme apart from the other martial arts classes for 4-6-year-olds? It’s because we focus on helping your child reach their natural developmental milestones, not just keeping them busy. Our curriculum is designed to challenge them at their level, working on skills like listening, memory, balance, and focus – all in a way that’s perfectly suited to their age and stage of development.

We don’t set unrealistic expectations. Instead, we support your child’s growth at their own pace, helping them build confidence and feel successful as they progress.
