Adult and Teenage Hapkido syllabus is the same
Our primary teenage martial arts program is Hapkido, which caters for 13-16yo. Teenagers are taught the same Hapkido syllabus as adults and take their belt colour to the Adult program at 17yo.
Through our teenage martial arts program, we try to encourage teenagers to strive for success, and make them the master of their own journey.
At our school, teenagers will not be able to get a black belt until they enter the Adult program. This is due to two reasons. Firstly it will be unlikely that they will be ready, given the time in the teenage program. Secondly, it ensures a level of maturity before being taught more dynamic techniques.
School values and way of life
All students, are encouraged to adopt our values of Courage (physical and moral), Integrity, Loyalty and Mateship. We also encourage teenagers to build resilience.
At Centenary Martial Arts, we think it’s important to: always have a dream; be true to yourself; be the best you can be; and aim for things just out of reach.
Our values and ‘way of life’ help teenagers during their Martial Arts journey, and helps prepare them for life.
We reserve the right to refuse training if convicted of a violence offence
We are strong believers that violence is wrong and as a Martial artist, it should only be used when absolutely necessary and only to the level needed. In fact, we reserve the right to refuse training to any student, convicted of a violence offence, including Domestic Violence.
