This program is not just a martial arts program, it is a program that helps with the development of a strong foundation for children aged 3-6 years. The program was developed with the guidance of the early years learning framework (EYLF). The frame work is the standard that preschools in Australia adhere to for the development for this age group.
With martial arts and the EYLF, they share very similar fundamentals. Building one’s sense of identity in the early years learning framework is very relevant in the martial arts. Having the mini rangers perform their moves in front of the class will build their confidence and will also allow them to develop their identity.
Through our many years of experience, we have found that thirty minutes is the optimal length of time for the younger aged children. With the students aged 3-6, with their shorter attention spans, classes are still dynamic and fun to continue to develop their attention spans and concentration. Longer class times have a negative effect on the concentration of the Mini Rangers.
If your child is nervous and shy, we would recommend that you stay so that they can feel comfortable with new people. Once they gain more confidence, we would recommend that parents should leave their child with the instructor or watch from a distance. This will allow the instructor to build the child’s confidence even more.
With the mini rangers, the development of the 3-4 years age group are vastly different from the 5-6 years age group. With the 3-4 years, in accordance with the EYLF, students learn the very basics of martial arts with a focus more on their balance and co-ordination. As they move up in the 5-6 years age group, their fundamentals have improved. This means the focus is more on their confidence and social skills and building up their school readiness.
Our Martial Rangers program has been developed over the years as a strong foundational program to build both a child’s physical and mental skills. The program focuses on developing the co-ordination and physical attributes for strong and active children as well as developing their confidence and social skills. For the overactive children that struggle to sit still the Martial Ranger program aids in building up their discipline and concentration, while the children who are shy and quiet, we build up their confidence and bring them out of their shells.
We also have a strict bully-free environment in our club, teaching our students to both stand up for themselves towards bullies as well as recognising and providing an outlet for those who may potentially be the bullies.

This program focuses on fundamentals of Taekwondo as well as the basics of weaponry and self defence. Our teens and adults program focuses on both health-related fitness such as cardiovascular endurance and skill related fitness such as speed and balance. In this class you will not only be taught different kicks, strikes and combinations, you will also be taught elements of different martial arts such as ground defence, standing self-defence and weapons for coordination and flexibility.
You don’t need any prior experience to join! All our classes are beginner friendly and you will receive plenty of guidance from our professional instructors! Although we have set our curriculum to be a little challenging, you are able to set your own pace for your training and you will always be encouraged to do your best. We have many different ages from young teenagers up to parents and adults looking for a change from gym fitness routine.
We believe that martial arts have a wide array of health benefits, not only physically but also emotionally. Martial arts like Taekwondo help individuals create a healthy, stable mindset and helps alleviate stress. Simple breathing exercises like meditation can be very beneficial for relieving one’s anxiety. Taekwondo also helps you relieve negative tension through exercise and lower your stress levels. At Martial Arts Spirit we notice our students increase in confidence right from the very beginning. Our classes are tailored to meet everyone’s specific needs, so every student feels strong and capable and more confident.
