 | ABOUT US WELCOME TO ZEN DAN KWAN SCHOOL OF MARTIAL ARTS
    
It's amazing, but true............ You and your child can be happier, healthier and more successful in life from learning to kick, block and punch! (See for yourself. Come along or bring your child for our FREE introductory programme)
Dear Parent, I don't blame you. You're thinking, "Come on..........how can Zen Dan Kwan School of Martial Arts teach all of these great values and skills?" Well, I'm here to tell you it can, and it does so in more ways than you can even begin to imagine. My name is Mark Walker. I'm also the owner of one of the most successful Martial Arts Schools in Australia. It's "Zen Dan Kwan School of Martial Arts" -- and it's right here in Wollongong.
For 12 years, we've been nurturing and helping people like you and your children with the character building tools found only in Martial Arts. No other sport or interest can match them. In the next few paragraphs, I will explain to you how you and your child can sample all of this, and more. All at no charge. Watch as your child increases their levels of confidence, energy, discipline and spirit. You will be amazed as they become unstoppable in their search for........
- Higher academic achievement
- Unshakable self respect
- Indomitable spirit and self confidence
- Greater fitness and strength
And all of it comes from learning how to "kick, block and punch." I'll bet that you're wondering if this will work for your child. I know how you feel and I understand. For me, it has to do with the feelings of peace and confidence. The more confidence a person has in themselves, the less likely they'll be to doubt themselves and their abilities. They're at peace with who they are. So what's this got to do with your child?
Look at it this way. Your child's first and greatest challenge doesn't come from "fighting for their rights on the street," or "coping with the neighbourhood bully." It comes, instead, from battling darker, more sinister forces. Your child's own fears and nagging self doubts:
"I'm not as smart as the other kids." "I don't understand what my teacher is saying." "I wish I was as strong, or pretty, or as tall as Nancy." "Why does Bobby always pick on me?" "Why can't I be as popular as Jenny?"
The issue is, how do you get your child to fight these demons? You know the problem. Your child has a tough time even talking to you about them. How will they ever learn to conquer them?
Well, the good news is, I have a proven solution. A programme that has already worked for thousands of Wollongong children. A series of lessons your child can learn easier than you think. Let me tell you its secret.
Martial Arts are less about your child learning to fight others, and more about fighting....... themselves. Their innermost fears. Conquer them, and your child unleashes within themselves a powerful, unstoppable force. This force will give them the strength to kick down the doors of their own self doubts. This force will open your child to the tremendous power of self confidence and respect.
In other words, when your child uses the discipline of traditional Martial Arts to conquer their fears, they have the power to transfer that discipline to all other areas of his life. I know of no other sport or interest that does this better than Zen Dan Kwan. (I should know. Remember, I've been practicing Martial Arts for almost 40 years.) But don't take my word for it........
- "Zen Dan Kwan School of Martial Arts is exceptional. Our son, Ayberk, has gained self confidence, self discipline, and self respect....... all while having fun and working out." Filiz & Senir, Wollongong
"We are all really impressed with your programme. It is so well run, so creative and so very caring. The Instructors have a real way with the kids. The kids respond so well to their Instructors' warmth and attention. The skills and confidence you have given Jack have been wonderful!" Tracy, Mangerton "My son's self confidence has grown tremendously. He can stand up in front of his class in school and give an oral report of the highest calibre. At one time, that would have been very difficult for him. He's been chosen by his teacher to do independent studies. We don't think he could have done that without what he's learned at Zen Dan Kwan School of Martial Arts." Lisa, Dapto "We were looking for something to stop our son from beating up on his sister. Thanks to Master Walker's training, he's now a model student; he won't hit anyone. His teacher can't say enough good things about his behaviour. He's become a leader in class. He sits quietly. Everyone wants to sit by him. And yes, he no longer hits his sister." Peter, Cordeaux Heights "Right away, my boy started taking pride in what he was doing. He loved getting better control of his body, both physically and emotionally. He's a very exuberant child. Usually, it's a real effort for him to keep his feet on the ground. Now he has no problem. He also got frustrated easily. Now he can tame his frustration and be glad about it." Brian & Kelly, Cordeaux Heights
Now, you may be asking, how does all this "values" stuff work? And why do Zen Dan Kwan School of Martial Arts manage to do a better job at teaching it? Again, more than any other activity, Zen Dan Kwan gives your child the chance to explore their innate powers. They'll marvel (as you will) at their increases in strength, flexibility, endurance, balance, and harmony. Yet, this is only the start. In fact, their physical skills act as a foundation for something much more important: the development of their more valuable mental and character skills. And not cut off from their physical skills, but intimately connected - even bonded - to them. Like this:
- COURAGE Your child finds the courage to move outside of their comfort zone. They focus themselves and learn to take on more difficult Martial Arts moves and skills. They are no longer afraid of being afraid. They learn that whatever they sow, they must reap. They learn to take responsibility for themselves. Your child will see their life as a constant, never ending journey full of opportunity. In short, with a deep breath, they refuse to become a victim of fate. They have control over their own destiny.
- STAYING POWER Your child finds joy in improving their physical stamina. They can walk farther, run longer, and practice skills until they get them right.
In turn, they learn not to give up. They stick things out. With the help of their Instructors, they strive harder and longer to reach their goals. Even if they fail, they preserve their self respect. They won't let their self doubts get in the way of finding ultimate solutions.
- HONESTY As the man said, "Where performance is measured, performance improves." Yet, your child has to first accept where they stand now. That means measuring current strengths. Above all, they learn that to succeed, they can't fool anyone, especially themselves.
This results in a keener focus. They learn to make eye contact with their teacher (and not just in Martial Arts). They pay greater attention to what each teacher says. They know and accept where they stand.
These are just three of the powerful, energizing values your child will get from our programme.
In short, you can look forward to your child developing.........
- POWERFUL SELF CONTROL They'll refuse to give in to negative peer pressure. They'll have a deeper respect for rules.
- IMPROVED FOCUS They'll learn what's needed, along with the skill to "zero in" on critical tasks at hand. Normal, yet time-wasting, childhood distractions won't get in their way.
- FEARLESS SELF CONFIDENCE Watch as your child finds the courage to open any door life has to offer.
TOWERING ROLE MODEL INSTRUCTORS As you might guess, all of this couldn't have happened unless I had the very best of Instructors. To make sure I have the very best, each of them started as white belt beginners, right here in my School. Today, they are all Martial Arts experts and advanced Black Belts. Even our Assistant Instructors are hand picked for their traits of excellence and personally trained by me.
- "We could tell the Instructors were interested in our boy right from the `get go.' There's a special nurturing that goes on between student and the Instructor. Maybe that's why they are so successful teaching both Martial Arts and values." Leonie, Lake Illawarra
- "My heart felt thanks to you for your wonderful support and encouragement with Courtenay. I often mention Zen Dan Kwan School of Martial Arts to other parents as I believe you are doing wonderful things!" Louise, Wollongong
Now, I still know what you're thinking: "How can I know for sure the programme will work for my child? Will learning to `kick, block, and punch' really work for them?" Well, I've made it very easy for you to find out......
