As a parent looking for kids martial arts in Portland Oregon
You want the best for your child. Education is not the place to “make a cut”. It is a FACT that school attendance and grades both drop significantly when a child is being bullied. I know some of theses statistics can seem alarming but they are necessary to see.
Even though they are from 2010 they are still extremely alarming as bullying has only gotten worse over these last years.
These Stats Taken from:
bullyingstatistics.org/content/bullying-statistics-2010.html
“Bullying statistics 2010:
New bullying statistics for 2010 revealed about one in seven students in grades kindergarten through 12th grade is either a bully or has been a victim of bullying. Sometimes a teen or child who has been bullied eventually becomes the bully as a way to retaliate. In fact, revenge for bullying is one of the strongest motivations for school shootings, according to recent bullying statistics. A reported 61 percent of students said they believe students shoot others at school because they have been victims of physical violence at home or at school. This is a true indicator that bullying can occur in all forms by other students, children, teens as well as adults. According to various bullying studies, many teens and children act out violently on their peers through acts of bullying because they are abused at home.
Other bullying statistics:
- Over half, about 56 percent, of all students have witnesses a bullying crime take place while at school.
- A reported 15 percent of all students who don’t show up for school report it to being out of fear of being bullied while at school.
- There are about 71 percent of students that report bullying as an on-going problem.
- Along that same vein, about one out of every 10 students drops out or changes schools because of repeated bullying.
- One out of every 20 students has seen a student with a gun at school.
- Some of the top years for bullying include 4th through 8th graders in which 90 percent were reported as victims of some kind of bullying.
- Other recent bullying statistics reveal that 54 percent of students reported that witnessing physical abuse at home can lead to violence in school.
- Among students of all ages, homicide perpetrators were found to be twice as likely as homicide victims to have been bullied previously by their peers.
- There are about 282,000 students that are reportedly attacked in high schools throughout the nation each month.”

A letter from Zach Thornton,
Manager of SBG Portland.
Dear Parent,
The hardest part of starting something new is the first step. It is typical for a child or even a parent to be nervous when they first come in. It’s a strange place where they will be learning some powerful new skills and this can seem very intimidating.
I assure you that it’s all down hill after you walk through the door. You will experience a professional, welcoming, family oriented, atmosphere.
Once here you will get to witness the most amazing and rewarding part of what we do here. Change peoples lives. This may seem like a extreme thing to say but you will witness it happen right before your eyes.
You will watch them change from unsure, timid, or maybe even unruly, to being respectful, confident, and excited to learn more. The immediate confidence from putting on the uniform for the first time, and learning a functional skill is amazing.
Nothing makes my day more then seeing the amazing impact our program has on children. It is easily the most rewarding work I have ever done in my entire life.
Sincerely, Zach Thornton
If you have any doubts I suggest you see it for yourself. We have shown you some alarming truths and made some extraordinary claims in this letter. Some of it may seem hard to believe.
We stand by our statements and we are prepared to prove to you first hand. All you need to do is call – 503-230-7924 – We will give you and your child a proper introduction. You will have all the time you need to ask any questions and make sure to cover any areas of concern you may have. This is also the best time for us to find out what your goals are for your child so we know what to focus on.
Your child will then get a full break down of a class and a private lesson from a internationally certified instructor. This allows you to see for your self exactly what kind of skill sets your child will be learning in class.
CAUTION:
Skipping this step can be extremely detrimental to how your child experiences martial arts. Although some children can be ok with simply jumping into a class this can be a major mistake for others.
The first private lesson is paramount to your child’s success. It allows your child to Know What To Expect. After their private lesson they will know what to expect from their instructor and what kind of behavior is appropriate in class, eliminated any self doubt they may have. Making it easier for them to focus, learn, and have fun!
If that still isn’t enough for you to give us the Opportunity to improve your child’s life I have one last offer for you.

Kid’s martial arts: struggling vs. challenging. Most people do not enjoy the struggle. Actually, it seems that people avoid a struggle whenever possible. I want to say that struggle is something necessary for growth when it’s viewed as a challenge. I also believe that there is a difference between something viewed as a struggle and something viewed as a challenge. It can get semantic but there is a distinction in many cases. Struggles and challenges occur everywhere in life: at work, in our families relationships with one another, in...
Kid’s martial arts: this is Rita Pearson and she says every kid needs a champion. “Rita Pierson, a teacher for 40 years, once heard a colleague say, “They don’t pay me to like the kids.” Her response: “Kids don’t learn from people they don’t like.'” A rousing call to educators to believe in their students and actually connect with them on a real, human, personal level.” I first saw this at work and I immediately thought that it was something applicable to any endeavor in which we are teaching...
Kid’s martial arts and what we can do to encourage I am often looking at parenting sites and reading up on different things to compliment posts on this kid’s martial arts blog. I came across another blog post that I found extremely interesting which led me to this article that is applicable to any parent if their child is in a kid’s martial arts class or playing on a basketball team: What Makes A Nightmare Sports Parent — And What Makes A Great One. Kid’s martial arts and parents As...
Kid’s martial arts and heart Working with kids in a kid’s martial arts class there is a certain level where children are always honest. They may not be entirely honest when they think what they say or tell you may get them into trouble but, generally speaking, children are honest about their feelings and what’s going on in their lives. We always hear that honesty is sometimes brutal, it can be hard to hear sometimes, but with children there is little malice when stating the truth about something-it’s very...
Kid’s martial arts and fear Everybody is afraid of something. We all have our idiosyncrasies and phobias-for some its spiders, heights, or closed spaces. In kid’s martial arts a common fear is that of losing or not performing well. Most fear comes from what is unknown and he outcome of matches or sparring is not known. I would venture to say that the butterflies that we get before tournaments or performances is that little bit of fear…and that’s healthy. Kid’s martial arts: what is fear? Many people vilify fear...
Taking things for granted There are many different aspects of taking something for granted-we take our health for granted many times or we take for granted that certain people will always be in our lives. It’s often a shock when such a change comes about-losing our health in some form, like a broken leg or a torn ligament; or losing a loved one to any circumstance whether it’s divorce or death. I was late to playing the game of lacrosse and I picked up my stick in my last...
Finding a gym for kids martial arts classes. I just read this great post from SBG black belt Cane Prevost about diversity in a gym called Evaluate a gym in 5 minutes or less. It’s a great post! In the piece he writes a little bit about the history of the gym here in Portland, but more importantly he succinctly shares and describes the marriage of coaching and curriculum. When I first started looking for a kids martial arts class I wasn’t sure what I would be looking...
Competition for kids in martial arts Competition can be a touchy subject sometimes when talking about kids. Whether it’s something like little league or kids martial arts many parents have a different view on the role of competition and when their kids should engage in it. It’s unfortunate that there have been situations in many youth sports that have given “competition” a bad connotation to it. I find it’s very important for kids to learn about competition in kids martial arts classes. They have to learn how to be a good...
Kids martial arts and patience…for everyone. I’ve noticed that I always talk about the benefits of kids martial arts classes and one those benefits is patience. The kids in the class learn patience in the process of learning. In a kids martial arts class patience and focus comes from listening and learning. Another aspect that I neglect to talk about is how patient coaches need also be with the kids. Kids are temperamental. They can be fussy, distracted, and moody. To work with kids you must have patience. Patience...
Mundials: the World Jiu Jitsu Championships Our coach Amanda is prepping and getting ready for Mundials and we’re very excited for her! She is a great coach, competitor, and a wonderful person.
