The Leadership Program was developed by the E.Y. Martial Arts & Self-Defense Concepts to develop future leaders, not only for our school, but for the community and for America.

Our Leadership Program is our highest level program. Students in our Leadership Program have not only committed themselves to train to the rank of black belt and beyond, they have also committed themselves to being leaders, not only in our school, but in life. These students are working to share the benefits of martial arts training, by being leaders for others to follow and setting a standard of “Black Belt Leadership Excellence” in all that they do in life.

Leadership Program members wear a special uniform and patch. This represents their commitment to being a leader. These symbols act as visual reminders to keep the students focused, and to remind them that they are role models who others will want to follow.

Like the Black Belt Club, Leadership Program members have a special weekly Leadership Class to attend. During these special Leadership Classes, students will learn advanced Leadership Life Skills such as perseverance and self esteem, Leadership Skills – such as goal setting, casting a vision, being proactive, and public speaking techniques.

Our Leadership Program teaches how to lead in school rather than just follow the crowd. It teaches our kids to resist peer pressure and do the right thing. Our Leaders learn how to set an example and be a role model. Leaders have opportunities to assist in classes and act as role models for other students. Older Leaders are encouraged to mentor younger students and teach them by setting an example.
