Karate, or for that matter, any bona fide martial art, taught correctly, can only but be beneficial for the development and well being of a child.  Yes, the child will benefit from the physical activity in karate.  Yes, they will gain more self confidence through the training and in turn, their self esteem will improve.  And yes, the child will learn a controlled system of self defence that will stay with him, or her, the rest of their lives.  However two of the greatest gifts karate will give a child is self discipline and humility and in todays world, these two qualities can go a long way towards a child’s future growth and welfare.
