Junior Champions Program
IM Sports Junior MMA Champions Prep Course Ages 7 & 8
This course was designed specially for children ages 7 & 8 years old. We realize that children this age have specific characteristics that differ from children younger and older than them. They are sharper and more focused than children 6 and under, however, they are still not quite ready to face the same challenges presented to children 9 to 12 years of age. Although some children between the ages of 7 & 8 can keep up with older children, and in some cases, surpass them, the average 7 & 8 year old can benefit from a more specific type of training that will help them develop the best; physically, intellectually, emotionally, and socially.
The stages of development for children 7 & 8 years old have been studied. Research targeted 8 advanced skills that children of this age group are in the process of developing. Those skills are: Concentration, Perseverence, Courage, Intensity, Speed, Agility, Technique, & Flexibility.
In the Prep Course program, your child will learn and grow in a process that accommodates their skills and abilities. They will train with other children in their age group, and not have to be distracted by younger or older classmates. This means that their training will not be slowed down due to the learning abilities of a younger child; and it will not be sped up to keep up with the capabilities of pre-teens. This means better, more functional classes designed just for them. Your child will feel comfortable and more capable of achieving excellence. They are at an age where the more special they feel, the harder they will try. With that in mind, welcome to the Future Champions Prep Course program!

IM Sports Junior MMA Champions Program Ages 9 - 12
Children between the ages of 9 to 12 are in a very important stage in their life. With the dream and haunts of being a teenager, which is right around the corner, there are many physical, emotional, social, and intellectual challenges that they all face. With the right developments and positive reinforcement, your child will face their transition as a teenager with an enthusiastic outlook.
Imagine your son or daughter at the top of their class intellectually. We’re not talking about a straight “A” student, although that does help, we’re talking about a child who is smart enough to make the right decisions; a child who knows how to set and achieve goals; a child who understands the importance of commitment; a child who knows how to persevere through the most difficult challenges; a child who knows when to say “no”. Also imagine your child in the middle of a positive social circle who knows how to make and keep friends. Vision your child physically competent, capable of meeting and completing physical challenges. Best image yet, think about how relieving it would feel to see your child, day in and day out, cope with emotional challenges with a positive outlook.
Do all of those things sound good? Do they seem possible? Did you know that by enrolling your child into our Junior Champions Program, you are reinforcing all of those scenarios through martial arts training? Do you want to know how we are going to do it?
It’s very simple.
The IM Sports Junior Champions Program is an innovative children’s martial arts program that was specifically designed to challenge and develop the skills of a pre-teen. This program targets the characteristics of pre-teens and utilizes those characteristics to help them develop physically, emotionally, socially, and intellectually. The best part about their development is that they are learning and growing through martial arts training. Therefore, your child will build dynamic martial arts capabilities while gaining courage and confidence, and they will learn how to think smarter and harder with children their same age. It is the best formula for success!
We will help mold your child into a leader, a dreamer, and a character that brings out the best in his or her personality. Martial arts capture children’s undivided attention. That is what makes their positive growth and development possible. When a child chooses to participate in an activity that is good for them, they know it and support it. Children like to be their own individual who makes their own decisions. Training in the martial arts quite possibly will be the best decision they make during their adolescence.
With your ongoing support, you will help lead your pre-teen into the future with a positive attitude. Their commitment and concentration must always have your encouragement and guidance. As a team, we will be reshaping our community one child at a time.
Here’s how the Junior Champions Program works:
The IM Sports Junior Program is split into four series: the Beginners, the Intermediates, the Advanced, and the Elites. Upon completion of each series, your child will have accomplished a goal that will lead them to the next. By the time your child completes the final series, he or she will earn the rank of 1 st Degree Black Belt- a very high honor and accomplishment for anyone at any age.
Within each series, your child will have to successfully complete each level of training. To complete each level, they will have 6 portions of curriculum to master. These 6 portions include the following:
- Traditional material- this includes basic martial art moves, self-defense, and forms. The material is set up in a rotating curriculum so that they are only required to test on one of the above at each level, starting with the basic techniques at level 1 of each series. Self-defense is the traditional curriculum at level 2 of each series, and at level 3 of each series they will have new kata that is more challenging than the one before.
- Dynamic performance- this portion of the curriculum challenges the student’s skills and abilities in a way that increases their performance and intensity of their martial arts education. Out of all of the portions of the curriculum, this portion was meant to excite the spectators.
- Sport training- this includes the competitive hand-to-hand application of their martial arts training in a controlled manner. This portion of the training is the most fun for the students, especially as their skills get better.
- Board breaking- this is when the students will “wow” themselves and those who watch. This curriculum was implemented into the program to build the student’s aim and accuracy of their martial arts abilities.
- Physical development- it is the most sustainable part of anyone’s health to maintain physical fitness. The sooner a child learns the benefits of fitness, the better chance it will stick with them throughout their adulthood.
- Mental development- a wise martial artist is the best martial artist. When a student understands the importance of morals and values, their confidence and attitude shift to a very positive outlook.
From these 6 portions of the IM Sports Junior Champions curriculum, we are capable of establishing and refining physical, social, emotional, and intellectual excellence. The best part about your child’s training, besides the many benefits, is that it is extremely fun. The curriculum is challenging enough not to bore them, and at the same time is not overly challenging so that they don’t get discouraged. With strong goals, effort, and commitment, your child will become the best they can be!

"Why Enroll My Child at Infinite Martial Sports Camp?"
Martial Arts is great for Children
A psychological study found that children in martial arts have an increased sense of responsibility, a decrease in the willingness to take foolish risks, and a higher sense of self-esteem. This is why millions of parents are using martial arts to supplement their children’s education.
What is the Best Martial Art for my Child?
Let us help you decide without having to decide. The IM Sports' Junior Champion curriculum blends Karate/Tae Kwon Do (High Discipline Art) with Western Boxing (awesome hand skills), Jiu-Jitsu (ground fighting defense), Jun Fan Kung Fu (Bruce Lee's martial art, enough said), Muay Thai (Authentic Kickboxing/Conditioning) and Filipino Martial Arts (art of weaponry) to broaden the student's all around skill. To add depth to the child enrichment process, Master Ramirez has worked and studied with experts in the fields of bully proofing, self-esteem, youth conditioning, and academic improvement for today's youth.
Master Ramirez feels that IM Sports has one of the most well rounded curriculums for children available. He invites you to take a free trial for your child and see what everyone is talking about!

Parents report these important benefits seen in their children from our school experience:
Our Reward System Improves Children's Self-Esteem. Martial arts are not like team sports because the emphasis is on developing the individual's self-esteem not the team's winning record. The belt system is the key. When kids earn their belts it gives them a great sense of accomplishment that really improves the way they feel about themselves.
Our Confidence Classes Enhance Children's Self-Esteem. We believe confidence is one of the most important things we can give kids. That's why every class we teach has confidence-building drills included.
Our Program Teaches Children Discipline
One of the things parents appreciate most about our classes is the improvement in their child's self-discipline. We have a wonderful staff of patient instructors who love to work with children, but are also very clear about limits. We enforce good rules of behavior in class, and we expect the same good behavior at home and in school.
Our Activities Channel Children's Aggression
Many doctors actually prescribed our school for treatment because of the positive outlet it gives the kids for all their energy.
Our Program Teaches Children Essential Self Defense Skill. Our program teaches practical proven self-defense methods. We also teach the kids that the moves they learn in class will work, so they don’t go home and try them on their family members or neighbors.
