Partners in Development
We understand the difficulties parents face in raising a child and design lessons to target these challenges.
We’ve dealt with it all here and believe that the secret to your child’s development is a mix of rewarding physical activity and a focus on instilling essential life lessons. Through psychology, eastern wisdom practiced for generations, and patience, we help kids reach new heights of development.
Rest assured knowing your child isn’t just benefiting from a fun physical activity, they’re also building skills such as focus, discipline, respect, empathy, confidence, and more through their training.
We Often Encounter Kids Who Have:
- Amazing personalities but are just too shy and reserved to share it with the world.
- Incredible gifts but low self esteem that holds them back from their true potential.
- Big dreams but not enough courage or ambition to chase them.
- Intelligent minds but difficulty focusing due to short attention spans or conditions such as ADD and ADHD.
- Tons of energy but they put it towards video games, TV, and other “digital dangers” that keep them glued to the couch.
More Than Just Martial Arts
Discover the Transformative Powers Martial Arts has on Children!
Develops Character and
Humanity
We all want our kids to change the world and make an impact on future generations. Through a focus on aiming for and achieving goals, we teach kids to shoot for the stars and incrementally chase goals step-by-step. All while instilling values such as love, empathy, respect, humility, and discipline.
Encourages Teamwork and
Socialization
Nothing unites kids better than sharing a common interest. We teach children to work together to better each other and accomplish great things. Bullying in any form is frowned upon and each child learns to embrace each other’s differences.
Rewards Unbelievable Listening
Skills
By learning the value of respect and humility, kids learn to listen attentively to their elders. It starts with an eagerness to learn all the cool moves and “tricks” they see their friends doing but once they realize what they can accomplish by simply paying attention, they begin listening in other areas of life as well.
How is This Possible?
It’s not magic or some secret ancient wisdom, as cool as that would be. All it really comes down to is our philosophy and commitment in developing the “whole” student as opposed to simply teaching a specific skill.
We strive to raise our students to new heights in not just martial arts but also in overall health, character, discipline, confidence, development, and socialization. It’s hard to pinpoint exactly what that “magic” ingredient is, but our combination of a flexible weekly schedule, accommodating approach, and focus on character development just seems to resonate with our students and their families.

I am very impressed with both the program and the coaches. The coaches ensure that the kids stay engaged as they teach them martial arts techniques while also reinforcing ideals such as respect and self-discipline in a caring and professional manner. They have excellent communication regarding upcoming events, schedule adjustments for the holidays and welcoming new members. My daughter loves going here!!

We have a 5 year old son on the spectrum and weren’t sure how he would do at Budo. We were told (by the coaches) that this is what he needed. At first, we were hesitant because our son had a hard time listening/paying attention for longer periods of time. He has been taking classes for about 5 months and the change in his behavior is like night and day. The coaches do a fantastic job in implementing discipline, structure and care for all kids. If you have a child similar to ours, we would highly recommend implementing Budo into their weekly routine. You won’t be disappointed.

Couches are down to earth, the environment is welcoming, non judgmental and friendly. They really love what they do.UPDATE: got my daughter in the classes now and it’s doing wonders for her, not only does it help her learn to defend herself but they are working on focusing with her and you can see an improvement. She loves going to classes and they are awesome with the kids. It really is a place of all ages. I go to the adult classes it’s a workout in a good way where you actually look forward to going. Highly recommend giving them a chance because they won’t disappoint.

The atmosphere and environment is one of a kind. The couches actually enjoy what they do and care which is hard to find they go above that if you ask for tips or work outs they send you stuff to help. My family comes here and we wouldn’t think about going elsewhere. They make you family. Highly recommend.

My 7 and 5 year olds go here and so do I. ALL of us love it! The coaches care so much that you don't see them as just coaches you see them as family. They don't just teach you how to defend yourself, they teach you how to really be you and make you feel comfortable doing it. You don't have to be shy for any reason with anyone because everyone is just so open and understanding and accepting. I feel like somethings missing when I don't attend class and I've made very good friends. Honestly, I'm not sure how other places are but I'm glad I never got the chance because I never would have met these amazing people.

A Culture of Growth
Martial Arts isn’t an overnight solution. It’s a journey of continuous self-improvement.
Yes your child will likely see dramatic changes in the beginning, but the real power is in their future knowledge and growth.
Each additional class not only helps your child feel healthier, it adds a sense of discipline and purpose to your child’s life as we continue to teach important life lessons and values.
A True Sense of Discipline & Leadership
No longer will you have to worry about whether or not your child is on the right path in life. We know how much effort you place in raising your child to follow your lead and avoid negative influences such as peer pressure, the internet, and practices of other kids.
Our top priority is guidance and offering your child not only support, but the structure and discipline to value the wisdom of parents and teachers.
With a focus on character development and inner strength, we encourage children to not only follow your lead, but to also make meaningful, responsible decisions of their own.
Protection from Dangers & Threats
We teach children that most situations can be resolved by seeking out an authority such as a parent or teacher and thoroughly explaining the situation. We never want to see kids use their Martial Arts skills in the outside world, but we also believe understanding how to respond to a threat is crucial in today’s society.
Our students understand that Self-Defense is a last resort and know how to quickly escape a dangerous situation when necessary.
Activity & Fitness
Kids today get less exercise than ever. With screens and devices constantly capturing attention, it’s incredibly important that kids get the exercise they need to develop.
We use fun activities, challenges, and games to make sure your child completes a full exercise routine while also having a ton of fun! These exercises develop your child’s mind and body while putting energy towards a fun and healthy activity.
This practice of regular exercise not only leaves kids excited for their next session, it creates a powerful habit that develops into a healthy lifestyle as your child grows older
Socialize and Bond with Other Students
One of our top priorities here at our school is getting students to put down their phones and connect with the world around them.
We show kids how much they miss when they’re glued to their phone as we bond over a fun, rewarding activity.
Parents often notice their children talking more, socializing with other kids, and listening to advice and instructions better as they’re no longer glued to their digital devices.
FAQs
Is Martial Arts dangerous?
Although any sport or activity has some risk involved, our team of certified instructors follow safety protocols to ensure a safe and supportive environment for our students. In fact, unlike sports which has one adult supervising an entire team, we have multiple instructors monitoring a room at all times making sure everything runs smoothly. We understand that each student has their own unique limits and we encourage rest and feedback during exercise.
Is Martial Arts violent?
Martial Arts is often depicted as a violent activity but that couldn’t be further from the truth. The mindset behind martial arts involves harmony, peace, tranquility, and connection to the body. The majority of training focuses around movement and energy. We teach kids how to talk through conflicts and seek the guidance of an adult with the authority to help. However, if an unavoidable violent situation arises in your child’s life, they now have the tools to fend off the attack and safely escape the situation.
What special equipment will my child need to participate?
For your free trial, we recommend you come in shorts and a T-shirt to work out and have fun. Once you signup, we offer a free uniform for each new student!
How can Martial Arts prepare my child for life?
In addition to training children in conflict resolution and self defense, martial arts also instills essential life skills like discipline, honor, confidence, and respect. The process of goal setting and working towards moving forward is extremely rewarding and causes a major shift in maturity.

My son has been attending classes at Budo in Voorhees for a couple of months now, and it’s been a fantastic experience! He is excited about going to class, and he is proud of what he is learning. As a parent, it’s been especially gratifying to watch him in class because even though he has special needs, he isn’t treated differently. He is included in the drills the other students are doing, and the coaches have the same expectations for him as they do for the other students. Each of the coaches has been great working with my son individually as well, and the other students in class work really well with him also. It’s a very friendly and welcoming environment. It’s been an extremely positive experience!
