It’s More Than Just Another Activity!
Martial Arts & Social Skills (M.A.S.S. & M.A.S.S. Jr.) is more than just another activity, it has been developed specifically to meet the needs of our special needs population and it is the only program like it!
This program helps EVERYONE exercise and more!
A student may have several areas that directly impact his/her ability to participate in exercise. Those areas may include:
POOR COORDINATION, resulting in clumsiness, falling down, bumping into others.
LACK OF VISUAL TRACKING, making it impossible to follow a ball, for instance
SLOW MENTAL PROCESSING, which can result in slow reaction times and difficulty anticipating
SHORT ATTENTION SPAN, slowing down progress due to inability to concentrate
LACK OF FINE MOTOR SKILLS, limiting the activities that can be participated in.
At Chin Bo Jok, we are dedicated to structuring exercise to the abilities of each individual, ensuring their ability to participate in each activity.
It’s not theory ...
By incorporating bilateral exercise, we are able to improve communication between the left and right hemispheres of the brain. This practice is incorporated into each and every class. Exercise also reduces levels of stress hormones that can interfere with brain development.
Students learn to take their lessons and apply them outside the classroom
The M.A.S.S. class curriculum will help each student see the value of trying their best outside of the classroom and taking their positive mental skills with them wherever they go! Using our exclusive 3-Prong approach, we are able to link home, school or work, and our academy. Our responsibility list will keep them on track daily, and our Test Approval Letter reminds our martial artists that everything in life is connected. They will become a better student in school, or better employee at work, a better listener at home, and feel more ambitious towards his/her future goals.
Social Skills and Camaradarie
Social skills which include good manners, patience, tolerance and teamwork have been incorporated into the curriculum, as well as developing self-discipline, focus, and respect for one's self and others
Individual Assessments!
As with all our programs, the student is assessed and treated as an individual, not an age or a label. This starts with a Chin Bo Jok “Kickstart”, our private lesson/evaluation, done prior to anyone entering the classroom.
