An Introduction to Youth Martial Arts

  • Uptown Movement 219 Sherman Avenue New York, NY, 10034 United States (map)

We’re excited to announce a Martial Arts Youth Seminar presented by UM member Frans Koster, as well as Ethan Spann and Dave Mcalinden from Upper Borough Martial Arts. 

"We see martial arts as not only a form of self-defense and combat sport but as a vehicle to self-improvement – physical, emotional, and social – leading to happier, safer, and more interconnected communities. Ultimately, martial arts are just a path towards limitless growth and acceptance of the responsibilities that come with it.

This introductory seminar will cover basic striking techniques and combinations, transitioning safely to the ground, and basic grappling techniques that allow one to control one’s opponent and stand back up. There is a heavy emphasis on positioning and deescalation."

When: Sunday, September 20th from 12-2pm
Ages: 7-18
Cost: $65
Spots are limited!
