Parent and Child Martial Arts

A Fun First Step Into Martial Arts

Cubbie & Me is a parent-and-child martial arts program for toddlers and preschoolers ages 18 months to 5 years. Children participate alongside a parent, guardian, nanny, or trusted caregiver.

Classes use movement, games, simple martial arts activities, and positive encouragement to help little learners build coordination, balance, listening skills, confidence, and body awareness.

Having a familiar adult participate makes class feel less intimidating while giving families meaningful time to move, laugh, learn, and create memories together. No martial arts experience is required for the child or adult.

Designed for ages 18 months to 5 years and currently offered at our Lakeview location.

Growing Through Movement and Play

What Your Child Will Build in Class

Cubbie & Me classes introduce early martial arts skills through movement, games, repetition, and parent participation. Every activity is designed to support your child’s development while helping families learn, move, and have fun together.

Coordination and Balance

Age-appropriate movements help toddlers and preschoolers strengthen balance, body awareness, gross motor skills, and overall coordination.

Listening and Focus

Short directions, familiar routines, and positive reinforcement help children practice listening, following instructions, and staying engaged during group activities.

Early Confidence

Children gain confidence as they try new activities, complete small challenges, and celebrate progress alongside a trusted adult.

Parent-Child Bonding

Parents and caregivers actively participate, creating meaningful one-on-one time filled with movement, teamwork, encouragement, and shared accomplishments.

Social Skills

Training around other children helps students practice taking turns, sharing space, participating in a group, and becoming comfortable around new people.

Growing Independence

With a parent nearby for reassurance, children gradually become more comfortable participating, trying activities, and completing simple tasks on their own.

Built for Little Learners

No pressure. No prior experience. Just a positive place to grow.

Every child develops at a different pace. Our instructors keep activities encouraging, flexible, and appropriate for young students while parents remain close and involved throughout class.

Beginner Friendly

Your First Class Is Easier Than You Think

Neither you nor your child needs any martial arts experience. Our instructors guide parents, caregivers, and children through every activity step by step in a relaxed and encouraging environment.

Your child may participate right away, observe for a few minutes, or need extra reassurance during the first class. That is completely normal. The parent-and-child format allows little learners to build comfort and confidence with someone they already trust nearby.

Wear comfortable clothing, bring a water bottle, and arrive ready to move and have fun together. No uniform or special equipment is required for your first Cubbie & Me class.
