Respect
The bow on stepping onto the mat is not decoration: it is rule number one.

Why martial arts
What a child takes home from the mat
Falling and getting up, bowing before and after, waiting your turn. A Judo or Karate session is an hour of clear rules with the body in motion — and that is what parents tell us they notice at home.
Control
Learning to fall without getting hurt and to stop when a partner taps — before learning to attack.
Confidence
A new belt every six months is a goal you can see and measure.
Body
Balance, coordination and strength, in an hour when nobody is looking at a screen.
