"We as parents are there to support him all the way."
"Ever since he has joined the kids boxing classes, which was this year in May, he has kept his room clean and kept up with his chores. That alone is a BIG ACCOMPLISHMENT! He has also joined the Black Belt Club, which is a three-year commitment that he made on his own.
We as parents are there to support him all the way. If he is willing to make a three-year commitment we are.
We are very proud of him and are excited about what is ahead. I also wanted to say that his grades have improved tremendously! Thank you for giving him support, encouragement and just the excitement that he has about kung fu."

"You have a way of making everyone feel that they can succeed. "
Dear Kevin and Renee,
Thank you both so much for being so kind to our family and sharing your knowledge with us. Your passion for your gift of teaching others and the way you interact with students is amazing. I am already witnessing amazing improvements in Gene as he goes about his daily routine.
You've also given me a priceless gift as well: I feel excited about learning martial arts and feel confident that your school is the best place I could ever take instruction. For the first time in my life, I am taking part in a physical and mental fitness experience where I feel encouraged.
I was never a stellar athlete, and during high school, I was always scolded, discouraged and ignored by my coaches. You have a way of making everyone feel that they can succeed, as long as they have a desire.
Thank you so very much and I look forward to the coming year and all of the opportunities and accomplishments you have opened the door to for our family!
Rich, Joy, Gene and Bruce
Kids Boxing Classes
At times, some people worry that enrolling their kids into a boxing class will somehow promote aggression in their child's personality. Actually, our kids boxing class does the complete opposite. Instead, your child will learn how to control themselves and their emotions from having to do so every day when sparring. It's important to realize, the kids who train here are much, much, less likely to get into fights.
Our Kids Boxing Classes Is A Great Way For Children To Get Up And Release Some Of The Pent Up Energy That They Develop Throughout Their Day.
Throughout the day, children might have gathered some energy. However, after attending classes, all of the frustrations of the day are completely gone by the end of their workout. Also, the kids are able to channel that energy in class. Just like adults, kids find that hitting the pads and punching bags releases frustration and feels good.
Another key point, boxing imparts a sense of power to your child and a sense of responsibility. Knowing that what they are learning is for self-defense, the children are much more likely to not use their skills outside of our school unless necessary.
After time, they don't feel they need to prove anything, because they are allowed to prove themselves every day in sparring class. Also, they know that there are consequences at our school if we to ever find out if they were the aggressor in a situation.
Sparring lets kids RELEASE their aggression in a positive manner.
Our Kids Boxing Classes Gives Your Child The Experiences Of Both Success And Failure
In today's society, kids are babied too much. The life lesson of being able to handle both success and failure in a positive way is one of the most import lessons that parents can impart on their children.
However, many kids today think that throwing a tantrum is acceptable behavior. Our Kids Boxing Class will allow kids the opportunity to control their anger, disappointment, or frustration. This is accomplished by training in a competitive art like boxing. In class, the kids experience being in an actual match where there is a definite winner and loser.
How To Win, But Equally Important, How To Lose Gracefully - Kids Boxing Classes
Often, kids tend to think that winning is everything. But, in our kids boxing classes, we teach them to be humble when winning and gracious in losing. As a result, your child will learn how to handle the feelings of triumph from success. But, more importantly how to deal with the disappointment of losing.
Sometimes, losing is a great motivation to push themselves to be better and to work on technique even more.
In due time, kids will know that whether they win or lose is attributed directly to how much time and effort they have spent practicing and how disciplined they were in preparing for the match.
Therefore, this very fact alone teaches responsibility for oneself. Given these points, every match is an opportunity to both grow as a person and improve as a competitor.
One of the greatest things about our kids boxing class is that every time you compete you have a chance to become a good sportsman rather than a sore loser. In the kids boxing class, good sportsmanship is a top priority. To put it another way, we teach that winning is not as important as learning from each sparring experience.
Safety Is As Important To Us As It Is To You
At the Las Vegas Kung Fu Academy, we provide a family-friendly and SAFE environment. When the children spar in class, we monitor each one of them to make sure they are having self-control. They also spar to perfect their technique.
During class, your child will not only learn the basics and fundamentals of Western boxing but also how to add in the other traditional martial arts (kung fu, escrima, judo) into their boxing style as well.
Also, since boxing is an individual sport your child will be able to take things at their own pace and eventually they will start to develop a style that will be based on their own successes and achievements.
Boxing Is A Mental Sport
Basically, the most important lesson that Kids Boxing Classes will teach your child is the value of preparation. They are reminded, actions do have consequences. If your child doesn't move quick enough, they don't just "lose a life" like when they play x-box, they actually get hit - and it hurts a bit. Sometimes, getting hit during sparring is a positive thing. The kids begin to think and realize that what they are doing is not working and need to quickly change their sparring strategy. Most important, they need to be aware and pay attention.
In conclusion, boxing is a skill that you do not gain overnight. Just like any other sport, boxing is something that needs to be practiced regularly. Sparring against other kids quickly teaches them that you cannot achieve success without hard training and daily practice.

About Us
Here's the story:
I started training in martial arts as a teenager. At that time in my life, I was getting into a LOT of trouble. I was hanging out with the wrong crowd.
But wait, it didn't stop there...
Unfortunately, I was staying out late without calling. Basically, I was a juvenile delinquent. In truth, I was my parent's worst nightmare come true.
Astonishing, isn't it?
Suffice to say I owe my parents a BIG apology!
Anyway, at this time, I wasn't actively looking for the benefits that the martial arts had to offer.
Honestly, I just thought it was the coolest thing in the world to be able to actually learn this stuff. However, it was only after a few months of training that I became aware of all of the benefits that training in martial arts had to offer.
My name is Kevin Kawada and my wife’s name is Renee Kawada. Martial arts training had a remarkable positive impact on my life.
Because of this, we decided to open our own martial arts school in March of 2004. At that time we made a promise to improve the lives of all our students. Truly, we want you to experience the life-transforming experience that is martial arts.
Please come in and see our school in person! We would love to have you as our next student!
