What is bullying?
Bullying is defined as “persistent threatening and aggressive physical behavior or verbal abuse directed toward other people, especially those who are younger, smaller, weaker, or in some other situation of relative disadvantage.” Bullying is different from other types of conflict or violence which is why it’s not always clear what to do.
Why does Karate help?
By instilling a sense of self-worth and resilience, karate empowers children to stand up for themselves assertively and seek assistance from trusted adults when faced with bullying behavior. Additionally, the discipline and respect cultivated in karate classes foster positive relationships and discourage bullying among peers, creating a supportive and inclusive community.

Develop High Self-Esteem
The physical and psychological effects of bullying are often extremely harmful, far-reaching, and long-lasting. Bullying commonly begins by the 2nd grade, and occurs throughout life. Bullying can be physical, verbal, or indirect, and can range from mild teasing to spreading rumors to pushing and hitting. Bullying frequently occurs on the internet as well. Having high self-esteem gained through martial arts training helps children stand up to the negative issue associated with bullying. It is important for a child to develop a high self-esteem and strong friendships to distance themselves from situations where they could be bullied.
Building Strong Leaders
The team of instructors at USA Karate in [sitecity] is empowering adults and children to resist and overcome the harmful phenomenon of bullying by building strong leaders in the community through Martial Arts. It gravely concerns Steven Seme and David Younglove when children are victimized by anyone, especially their peers. Being a victim of a bully can lead to a child avoiding school, developing life-long anxieties, plotting and performing violent acts of vengeance, and even committing suicide.
We Give You The Tools To Succeed
Here at USA Karate we equip you and your children with the tools necessary to succeed in every situation. We will teach your child to walk away (while staying calm and not running), tell the assailants to stop and leave him or her alone, and to use humor to rapidly halt a bullying situation. Making eye contact with others (especially the bully) and to talking with a strong voice are also shown to reduce the occurrences. Naturally, we also teach skills for self-defense when conflicts turn physical.
