What does it REALLY mean to be focused?

It doesn't mean never getting distracted. It doesn't mean doing everything at once. And it definitely doesn't require the world around you to be perfectly quiet. Real focus is knowing where your attention belongs and learning how to bring it back when it wanders.

That's why we don't treat focus as something a child either “has” or “doesn't have.” Focus is a SKILL and skills can be trained. Every class gives our students another opportunity to listen, concentrate, manage distractions, make corrections, and try again. NOTICE. RESET. REFOCUS.

That's training for the mat, the classroom, and life.

This year’s annual Kick-A-Thon raised an amazing $52,982.43 for the Children’s Hospital at VCU!

And with this year’s contribution, our cumulative total has now reached an incredible $1,124,171 raised through the annual Kick-A-Thon!

More than $1.1 MILLION — one kick, one student, one family, and one year at a time.

We are incredibly proud to be part of a martial arts family that continues to come together for something so much bigger than ourselves. Thank you to every student, parent, instructor, supporter, and donor who helped make this year’s event another success.

“Their confidence shouldn’t depend on someone else's opinion."

Their worth doesn’t change because someone else fails to see it. Help your child build the confidence to know who they are, stand by their values, and respond wisely when others challenge them.

Noise. Movement. Something sitting on the desk. A notification. An itchy shirt tag. Someone talking nearby... Sometimes the things distracting our kids aren't the things we expect! This week, our students are learning that FOCUS doesn't mean distractions disappear. It means getting better at recognizing distractions and deciding where our attention needs to go.

https://www.understood.org/en/articles/5-common-distractions-for-kids-with-focus-issues

This article takes a helpful look at some common distractions for kids... and may help parents see “not paying attention” a little differently. We can't always control what's happening around us, but we can keep practicing where we direct our attention!
