Learn Better Through "Play" (feat. Kickboxing)

Our kids in their classes learning through kickboxing-based games

Research has shown that children learn better through play. Play can come through many forms, but for today, we'll focus on play through Kickboxing.

What is Play?
Play essentially is allowing a child to have fun through activities. Play provides opportunities for children to explore, experiment, and problem-solve in a safe and enjoyable environment. Through play, children can develop social skills, language skills, cognitive skills, and physical skills.

How Play can Benefit your Child?
For example, when children engage in imaginative play, they are able to practice communication and social interaction skills, as well as develop their creativity and problem-solving abilities. When children play with blocks or puzzles, they are developing their spatial reasoning and math skills. And when children engage in physical play, such as running, jumping, and climbing, they are developing their gross motor skills and overall physical health.

Play is also an effective way for children to learn and retain new information. When children are interested and engaged in what they are learning, they are more likely to remember and apply that knowledge later on.

Is there Play during our Kickboxing classes?
At the end of each class, we introduce fun kickboxing-based games to reinforce the learnings they have undergone. This helps to strengthen the learning experiences for the child and enhance the absorption of the skills.

Therefore, play is an important part of early childhood education, and parents and educators should encourage children to engage in a variety of play-based activities to promote their development and learning.
