Age 3
The only Martial Arts program in the area for 3 year olds that allows children to experience a unique, skill building, super fun class!


Tiny Champions classes are a perfect way to get developmentally necessary social interaction that's not just craziness at a park with random strangers. Our supportive, structured environment is just what families need!

Increased balance, awareness and precision turn your little one into a real life ninja (and they'll love it). They'll start to build the foundations of physical traits like strength and flexibility that will help set them on a healthy path for life!

It's important young children build positive socialization skills. These aren't just with their peers, but also authority figures other than parents and guardians. Learning to interact with others is extremely important for the journeys they'll soon take at school and elsewhere.

Tiny Champions gives kids the building blocks for laser-like focus later in life. They'll learn to pay attention to the task at hand, step by step.

Children need a safe, structured place to learn to overcome obstacles in order to build grit and determination. At Elite Martial Arts & Gymnastics they'll have a blast doing it!

Confidence isn't just a buzzword, it's what we do. Your child will build deep, unshakeable confidence that they'll take everywhere they go.

Kids can see their own strength building after only a few weeks. They love to see their strength grow in real time, working each day on becoming the strongest version of themselves.
Yes, the reality is that every child thinks they're already a ninja! Once they get into class though, they start learning actual, real 'ninja' moves, and they absolutely love feeling like a superhero.
Many parents are new to Elite Martial Arts & Gymnastics, but almost all kids know how awesome it is to be here. It's a blast, and parents can feel great knowing it's also packed with benefits.
We teach kids because we love it! because we love what we do! That shows through each and every day, and the joy is infectious. It's the most fun activity available for them, hands down!
For Kids
Kids need activities that are engaging and awesome. They *have* to be cooler than video games, TV, phones and other screen oriented activities that simply aren't beneficial. Tiny Champions is exactly what they want!

20.4% of kids
Of American children are obese or are at risk for obesity
To help fight and prevent Obesity, kids need to move! The reality though is that our lives aren't set up for movement. With 7+ hour seated school days and busy parent work schedules, it's tough to keep modern kids healthy.
8M U.S. Kids
Lead sedentary lives
It's too easy for kids nowadays to become sedentary and carry that into adulthood. The healthy habits learned at Tiny Champions can benefit kids for life, and can fight the seemingly inevitable march of adult onset health issues.
40% of Adults
Almost half of Adults are sedentary
More and more it seems inevitable that as kids grow into adults, they slow down and become unhealthy. It doesn't have to be this way, but we have to create healthy movement habits before it's too late.

Our goals for our Tiny Champions students are the same as your goals as a parent. Confidence, Self-Esteem, and Healthy Habits for life!
Having a solid foundation of positivity in your child's life is invaluable. You can't control their experiences everywhere, nor would you want to. But at Elite Martial Arts & Gymnastics, you'll know they'll always be good ones.
At Elite Martial Arts & Gymnastics, it doesn't matter if your child isn't the best kid on the team; they'll never ride the bench. They'll always know they're valued members of class, and part of the team, each and every day.
