Masters of the Future
Your children can not only be the Kung Fu MASTERS OF THE FUTURE, they can literally be MASTERS OF THEIR OWN FUTURE. Being a Master of the Future means taking personal responsibility for their actions. Knowing that ultimately, they alone are responsible for how successful they become!
Our program will guide your child through a journey of Personal Mastery. Thru Goal Setting, Good Habit Building, Continuing Destination Assessments, and Course Corrections, we will help your children become Masters of the Future…Their Future.
Just as the Kung Fu Master doesn't give up when facing the enemy, no matter how strong the enemy appears to be. Your children will learn that they do not have to be beaten by the Circumstances of Life, that ultimately they can find a way to overcome any obstacle.
The Kung Fu Master doesn't overcome the enemy by overpowering him, but by being smarter than the enemy, by out maneuvering the enemy, by finding the path of least resistance to their intended target. Your children can learn to approach the challenges of life in the same way.
The preparation you give your children today will determine whether in the future your child sits behind a desk wearing a business suit and says "You're Hired" or stands behind a counter wearing a funny looking hat and says "Would you like fries with that?"
Our program can guide them through the steps to Personal Mastery that will lead to MASS Success in Life!
Carleton University, in a study reported in Psychology Today (January 1985), found that children in martial arts have an increased sense of responsibility; a decrease in the willingness to take foolish risks; a lower level of anxiety; a higher sense of self-esteem; higher level of social intelligence; and were less likely to be radical.

An Educators View
Teachers are role models who create a learning environment to provide guidance, encouragement, and unconditional positive regard as well as constructive criticism. A truly talented teacher has the ability to adapt their teaching methods to accommodate individual learning styles. Since beginning the MASS Martial Arts program in 2003, I have come to know Sifu Massengill as more than just an instructor, but as a talented teacher and an ideal role model. Research based programs used in our public school systems that have roots in both psychology and education have been proven effective in teaching a variety of behaviors, from both academic competencies to sports, daily living skills, and vocational skills. The same principles of learning and teaching children to generalize desirable behaviors into home, school, and community settings are apparent in the MASS martial arts program. A well- structured athletic program is designed to do this by instilling character development and “life skills training.” The MASS Martial Arts program can truly be considered a “Life Skills Academy.”

A Mothers view
I cannot even begin to express the difference this class has made, in not only my daughters’ life, but our family’s life. We cannot believe the changes in our daughter. She has gone from being sassy to being polite, well mannered, confidant, willing to try new things and actually wanting to eat healthy foods and to exercise. My husband David and I are so proud of her and all of her accomplishments, but more importantly, she is proud of herself. We have been to other Martial Art studios. To us, they mostly seemed in it for the money and not the development of the person. I can assure you that MASS Martial Arts care about the person. My daughter adores it and can’t wait to go to class. This has been one decision that we will never regret and we will always be thankful for because of the life skills it has given our daughter.
