Back-to-School Success Starts Here: How Strickland’s Martial Arts Helps Kids in Flower Mound and the Surrounding Communities Thrive !
The new school year is right around the corner—and families in Flower Mound are gearing up for a fresh start. While many parents are stocking up on school supplies and organizing schedules, one of the best ways to set your child up for success might surprise you: enrolling them in martial arts.
At Strickland’s Martial Arts, we go beyond kicks and punches. We help students become more focused, confident, and disciplined—traits that directly support better performance in school and in life.
Our Martial Arts Program is a confidence engine. Kids learn to speak clearly, stand tall, and raise their hands in class—just like our student, whose mom shared, “His teacher said he’s participating more than ever!”
Why Martial Arts Is the Ultimate Back-to-School Advantage
Whether your child is just starting kindergarten or navigating the challenges of middle or high school, here’s how our program at Strickland’s Martial Arts supports their academic and personal growth:
1. Improved Focus & Listening Skills
Our structured classes teach kids and teens how to follow instructions, stay engaged, and focus their attention—skills that translate directly to better behavior and concentration in the classroom.
2. Confidence to Raise Their Hand and Speak Up
Our students learn how to carry themselves with confidence through our classes—this in turn is great for school classroom participation and group projects.
3. Routine, Discipline & Time Management
With regular martial arts classes kids learn how to manage their time and take ownership of their responsibilities both at home and at school.
4. Fitness, Energy & Emotional Resilience
Physical activity improves mood and stamina—especially important as kids face new challenges, social dynamics, and academic pressure. Our students don’t just grow stronger physically—they become more emotionally resilient too.
