Academic Success Program (ASP)

The ASP is a therapeutic martial arts-based program designed to benefit children, families, and schools. We focus on improving academic, behavioral, and emotional skills, and develop confidence and leadership to manage anxiety and remain poised under stress. The ASP has been life-changing for children in gifted, general, and special education--and an asset for families and teachers. Groups meet for one-hour sessions, twice weekly. On the surface, sessions resemble a martial arts class, but are far more than meets the eye. The program integrates elements of education, physiology, psychology, martial arts, neuroscience, and mindfulness.
