MP USA's Awesome Kid Program



This is not your average, run-of-the-mill “karate” class for kids. The MP USA Martial Arts Program for Kids offers a character development program that is an integral part of the martial art program. So, while the children are learning fun and life-saving self defense skills, they are also learning leadership qualities that include respect, discipline, manners, integrity, confidence and courage.

The character development program consists of a monthly lesson on a different topic each month. These are real life topics that children run into every day such bullying, good touch/ bad touch, inspiration, persistence, confidence & leadership- just to name a few. These discussions give the children the information they need to increase their awareness and critical thinking skills so that they can make wiser choices in everyday life.

Our expert staff work side by side with parents to guide children toward being the most capable and empowered people they can be. Additionally, the discipline, coordination and focus learned at the MP USA Academy carries over into every part of life including academics, sports and home life. Many parents have seen a big difference in their child’s behavior, reporting that their child is more helpful and respectful at home.  Here are what some parents are saying about the program:

“Our 9 year old daughter has been a student at MP USA for 1.5 years. We came to MP after she had been studying Taekwondo for 4 years. At 8 years of age she was already a recommended black belt and we felt this was due to training that had been more "assembly-line" in fashion, rather than a strong focus on skills that would actually serve her in real life. She had always had a love for martial arts but as she grew older she also expressed a desire for higher quality instruction than she had been experiencing. We visited many locations in the Ogden area and were so thrilled to have found Mas Mike and Mas Nate. Our daughter immediately new she wanted to study with them. As an educator I knew we had finally found quality experts who employed methods of instruction with clear results. Their students were skilled, respectful and clearly thrived in this setting. MP has given our daughter the rigor and rewards that quality martial arts can offer, along with feeding/strengthening the body, mind and spirit. We couldn't be happier!” - J&A

"We really love MP USA.  Joel (age 7) has already grown and shown a lot of improvement.  All the instructors are wonderful and we LOVE the positive, upbeat atmosphere.  Thank you so much for all of your help and hard work. :)" -Pam B.
