Growing Confidence, Coordination, and Character from the Ground Up

The Lil’ Dragons Program at Karate World Pawleys Island introduces young children to the exciting world of martial arts in a fun, safe, and positive environment. Each 30-minute class is perfectly designed for children to learn striking, grappling, and essential life skills while staying active and engaged.

From better focus and confidence to stronger bodies and positive habits, martial arts gives kids skills that last far beyond the mat. Our goals for every dragon:

Each 30-minute class includes a mix of:

  • Fun conditioning and stretching routines.

  • Exciting games that build teamwork and agility.

  • structured martial arts curriculum to build foundational skills.

  • character-building “Mat Chat” where we discuss topics such as setting goals, using polite manners, and practicing good etiquette.

Our Lil’ Dragons classes go beyond martial arts. Every session helps young students develop skills they will use in and out of the dojo, including:

  • Improved focus and listening skills.

  • Enhanced self-control and respect for others.

  • Stronger motor coordination and hand-eye skills.

  • Confidence to participate in group activities and share with peers.
