Tiny Tigers Preschool Program: (3-6 years of age)
The Dale McCutcheon Academy has consistently been the leader in Martial Arts training for children. We have had children’s programs in effect for many years. The Dale McCutcheon's Tiny Tiger Program for children ages 3 to 5 years is known throughout the country; and is the most imitated in the Martial Arts industry.
The children are taught the traditional respect and discipline, but are mostly instructed in anti-abduction awareness techniques. They are taught to use telephones, know their name, address, telephone numbers, etc., and are taught what to do in various undesirable situations.
Children who participate in Martial Arts will acquire these skills: listening skills, good attention span and motor skill development. They will develop faster and better if they acquire these skills at an earlty stage. Studies have proven children under the age of 5 who posess the ability to listen and pay attention tend to perform better in pre-school and elementary school education. This "jumpstart" can have a dramatic difference in their overall attitude throughout their childhood.
Class sizes are smaller and restricted to this age group. Classes are also shorter in length than the regular classes.
