ABOUT OUR SCHOOL
Mireu Martial Arts has a range of programs for all ages, but our specialty is working with children and families.
We focus our classes on character development, physical fitness, and self-defense with an overarching goal to build up each student’s self-esteem. We emphasize the importance of social and interpersonal skills through the development of self confidence, self discipline, respect, positive attitude, and commitment to the community. Our trainers help students become more competent in dealing with life challenges with trust and positive training techniques.
Self-Defense is always a component in martial arts programs. We balance self-defense tactics with seeking alternatives to conflict. We include instruction on personal safety awareness and anti-bullying skills.
