Term 4 Martial Arts Program – Ferncourt Public School 🥋✨

What an incredible Term 4 it has been working with the students of Ferncourt Public School. Each week, the energy, enthusiasm, and effort these kids brought to their martial arts sessions was truly inspiring.

Throughout the term, students developed skills in:
✔️ Confidence
✔️ Focus
✔️ Respect
✔️ Self-discipline
✔️ Resilience

We saw shy students come out of their shell, active students channel their energy into structured movement, and the entire group grow in confidence both on and off the mats.

A huge thank you to the amazing staff and the supportive parent community for welcoming us so warmly. It’s been a privilege to be part of their school experience this year.

We look forward to continuing to empower the students of Ferncourt Public School through martial arts in 2026! 💪🔥

🥋 Another incredible session at St. Martha’s Catholic Primary School!
We’ve been running our School Sports Martial Arts program here for the second year now — and the students continue to bring amazing energy, focus, and enthusiasm every week.
What makes this partnership so special is how closely the school’s values — being responsible, being safe, and being respectful — align with what martial arts training is all about.
Through our lunchtime martial arts sessions, students build confidence, respect, and discipline — all while having fun with their friends during school hours.
We love seeing schools embrace martial arts as part of their wellbeing and physical education journey! 💪

👊 Martial Arts in Schools – It’s Not About Fighting
Martial arts isn’t about teaching kids how to fight.
It’s about giving them the tools to:
✅ Stay safe & aware
✅ Build confidence & self-control
✅ Learn respect & responsibility
✅ Stand up for themselves and others
When taught in schools, martial arts helps all students – even those who might be bullies – to discover the values of discipline, empathy, and honour.
For young girls especially, it’s a life skill that builds self-worth and empowers them for the future. 💪✨
Martial arts in schools = stronger, more confident, and more respectful young people.

🛡️ Ground Defence in Action! 🥋
Today we focused on building confidence and control through BJJ-inspired techniques. Learning how to defend on the ground is an essential life skill – it teaches students to stay calm under pressure, think strategically, and use technique over strength. 💪
Martial arts isn’t just about kicks and punches – it’s about self-protection, problem solving, and resilience both on and off the mats. 🙌
🔥 Our students had a blast learning new skills, building teamwork, and developing the discipline that carries into the classroom and beyond.

Australian Martial Arts Academy has been running a martial arts program at our school every Friday at lunchtime for over 3 years. The students have so much fun learning and have shown great progress in their skills.

Hakan and the AMA team are highly professional instructors who deliver an engaging student curriculum. Most of my students had limited experience with martial art/combat systems and most had never used their bodies in such dynamic ways. 

Due to the explicit instruction and wide variety of activities on offer the students became quickly engaged and rapidly developed exciting new physical skills. Their program challenged my students through stretching, balancing and coordination activities as well as target striking and self defence-based techniques. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend AMA to any school looking for an exciting new sports program.

Head of the sports program Raymond North, incorporated the class into the sports program and said the kids found the session fun, informative and extremely beneficial. With take home information for all the kids to share the experience with their families, we hope the session provided skills they can use in their every day life. It is great to see the school open to offering this to their students which shows a great care the school has for the well being of their students and supporting their student value "work as one".

The students participated in activities that developed focus and self management skills.The instructors developed good rapport with the students.

We have been bringing students from school here for their winter recreational sports for two years. The instructors are all lovely and have great rapport with the kids. Each week's lesson is engaging and productive with new skills and there is a good balance with fun activities too. It's been great seeing the kids improve.
