USKO Dragons (5-8yrs)
The USKO’s Dragons programme is designed for our younger members
aged between 5 & 8 years old. We believe our role is to teach
the children more than just kicks & punches, it is about empowering
them with skills that will help them succeed during the rest of
their lives.
By engaging in a group activity the children learn important social
skills such as teamwork & compromise. By performing in front
of each other their confidence grows at an unbelievable rate.
The classes are taught in a relaxed but disciplined manner with
the emphasis on having fun. The children play games which help improve
their motor skills such as running, jumping & hopping which
require balance & co-ordination.
Positive reinforcement is used to help the children understand how
well they are progressing. This, along with our structured grading
syllabus & our system of merit badges, which are taken free
of charge when a student performs a certain task, ensure they are
continually striving towards & meeting new goals.
Our youngsters learn respect for themselves & others & gain
confidence in their own ability both inside & outside the class.
