Tiny Tigers Karate

A fun introduction to beginner martial arts for preschoolers ages 3 to 4. Skills, drills, and games teach important values and a positive attitude

At Proactive Tiny Tigers Karate your child will learn martial arts-based activities in a fun, active and safe environment with friendly, qualified Instructors.


We cater to each child's individual abilities using skill-based games, listening techniques and incentive rewards. We believe in success for all students and every child can excel in this program, which is important as it develops confidence and self-esteem through an earned sense of accomplishment.

So why not come down to the club and try it out for free?  We offer each child a free lesson so they can have a go!

Life Skills

Taking turns, managing emotions, following directions, teamwork, self-esteem, attention span and a positive attitude

  • Basic Martial Arts skills

  • Develop gross/fine motor skills, eye-hand coordination and depth perception

  • Practical applications for parent/child communication

  • How to encourage respect, confidence and discipline through positive reinforcement

Graduated Levels

Classes are broken into smaller sections, allowing children to grasp each component - their confidence increases every time something new is learned.

In addition, your child will earn coloured stripes on their belts, recognising attendance and achievement. All of our confidence-building exercises also help to develop hand-eye coordination and motor skills.

Through our philosophy of positive reinforcement, and the interaction with instructors and children, your child will develop the security and confidence to accept separation from you, be more focused and attentive, and ready for the upcoming road ahead in school.

Fun While Learning

Unlike other children's activities, Proactive's Tiny Tigers get a perfect blend of fun and learning. We provide a one-of-a-kind choice for parents who wish to make sure that their child's future is one filled with confidence and success, as well as an exciting and healthy adventure along the way.
