Ages 5–7 | Big energy, big smiles, big character

The Mini Monks age group is adorable… and they kick butt, too! These young martial artists bring all the energy, and we bring the structure, encouragement, and fun. Every class is packed with movement, games, basic skills, and plenty of laughter—plus the lessons that help kids grow into strong, confident individuals.

Personal attention for every Mini Monk

Your child means everything to you—and to us. That’s why every Mini Monk receives a weekly semi-private lesson (30 minutes), along with access to all Mini Monks Group Classes. These sessions give us time to build trust and work directly with your child to strengthen skills, character, and confidence at their own pace.

Semi-private lessons are a Boulder Karate specialty. Once you sign up, our instructors will contact you to schedule your child’s personalized lesson time.

Built on our 5 core values

At this age, we focus on the building blocks of character and discipline. Our Mini Monks program is rooted in our 5 Core Values:

• Attitude

• Integrity

• Respect

• Self-Control

• Heart

Your child will learn that good character means doing the right thing when nobody’s looking—a lesson we reinforce every week.

Movement, fun, and foundational skills

Recommended for ages 5–7, Mini Monks thrive in 45-minute sessions designed to keep them active, engaged, and smiling. We mix exercise, self-defense drills, basic martial arts techniques, and fun activities to help kids use their energy in a positive way.

Classes are upbeat, playful, and structured—creating a space where kids can build coordination, improve focus, and have a blast doing it.

The perfect time to start martial arts

This age is ideal for developing body awareness, listening skills, and confidence. Our Mini Monks pick up new movements quickly and start building the focus and discipline that will carry into school, sports, and life.

Kids who begin martial arts at this age often grow into our strongest teen leaders—and it all starts here.

Small steps, big growth

Most Mini Monks attend once or twice a week. Within 6–12 months, you’ll see amazing progress: better focus, more coordination, stronger confidence, and a child who believes in themselves.

What’s included in the Standard Mini Monks Program:
