How Martial Arts Teach Children Integrity

Integrity is a super virtue and a character attribute that includes things like telling the truth, keeping your word, and acting with dignity and respect. In martial arts, integrity and honesty means the same thing. For example, an honest individual has strong moral values. That is simply what integrity is.

Integrity is an important part of every day classes at Reveal Martial Arts. Students are trained to honor what they promise daily. We even say things like “YES, I Can!”, “Yes, sir!”, or “Yes, ma’am!” to instill the habit of keeping our word.

Students are expected to adhere to the rules whether they’re watched or not. Moreover, martial arts students are encouraged to honor their promises as well. This means that martial artists are trustworthy individuals whom you can depend on when in need.

It will be good if your child grows up into someone people respect, and who is known for a person of their word.

At Reveal Martial Arts we also teach children integrity by imparting time management skills. Students have to show up in class on time, train and spare time for other activities. This type of integrity is beneficial at home and work.

Reveal Martial Arts students learn to observe integrity when talking. This entails avoiding the use of foul language and saying mean things about others. Talking nicely to people makes everyone you are interacting with happier. Regardless of your occupation, if you talk with integrity people will admire you. This can attract business opportunities and financial success.

Furthermore, people like hanging around people who talks nicely. Would you want to be around someone who bullies people and says mean things to them?

Integrity helps children refrain from immediate gratification that is one of the major problems in the modern society. Young people nowadays expect instant rewards first before fulfilling their obligations. If your child is showing signs of lack of integrity, enrolling them in our martial classes will help your child regain their integrity and live a more happier, positive life.
