"Parents, prepare your children for school and for life, give them the tools they need to succeed."


   
-Sensei Dan, TheDOJO
Unleashing Human Potential


Parents, How may we help your child develop and cultivate the character qualities that will teach them how to succeed in life?  

(What do you want your child to develop? Check the list and contact us today!)  

Discipline & Self-Control
Our martial arts education teaches discipline & self-control.  We have a wonderful patient staff who have helped many children improve their behavior at home and at school.  It's one of the things parents like best about our program.    

Self-Defense
Our martial arts education teaches practical proven self defense techniques that children get better & better at with practice.  Children protect themselves with their knowledge.  We give them the tools they need to protect themselves in any situation they may encounter.    

Focus & Concentration
Our martial arts education teaches children the ability to focus.  They learn HOW to learn while having fun & learning proper eye contact, how to concentrate ones mind & an attentive posture.  We give them a safe outlet for all their energy.  

Confidence & Self-Esteem
Our martial arts education teaches confidence & raises self-esteem.  The key to building confidence is our unique lessons taught by Sensei Dan.  Martial arts is different from team sports because each time a child earns their new belt it raises their self-esteem.  We have confidence building drills in every class that improves the way children really feel about themselves.

Fitness
Our martial arts education is a great way to get in shape; for parents & children!  Students trim down while improving muscle tone & coordination.  We teach healthy eating such as having more fruits & vegetables at meals & snacks, drinking water to stay well hydrated & the discipline to not overindulge in junk food.


We teach children conscientiousness, to have grit and persistence, to be curious & creative and how to overcome problems optimistically. 



"What matters most in a child's development, they say, is not how much information we can stuff into her brain in the first few years. What matters, instead, is whether we are able to help her develop a very different set of qualities, a list that includes persistence, self-control, curiosity, conscientiousness, grit and self-confidence." -Paul Tough, How Children Succeed: Grit, Curiosity, and the Hidden Power of Character
 
"Tools of the Mind, by contrast, doesn't focus much on reading and math abilities. Instead, all of its interventions are intended to help children learn a different kind of skill: controlling their impulses, staying focused on the task at hand, avoiding distractions and mental traps, managing their emotions, organizing their thoughts." -Paul Tough, How Children Succeed: Grit, Curiosity, and the Hidden Power of Character

"help chronically low-performing but intelligent students, educators and parents must first recognize that character is at least as important as intellect." -Paul Tough, How Children Succeed: Grit, Curiosity, and the Hidden Power of Character

"We've made it our mission to help children while unleashing human potential among our students."


Project Based Leadership Training - See how children & their families practice leadership skills while building confidence in their ability to make a difference: 


Make up your Mind to Make a Difference

We’ve made up our mind to make a difference and unleashing human potential is our mission.  Here’s how we do it…The Philanthropy of TheDOJO through Project Based Leadership Training.  If someone is looking to make a difference in our world a simple start is performing an act of kindness for a child (most likely it will be remember throughout their life).  Donate a toy with us this holiday season, see how below.

20,000 Smiles 

Last year TheDOJO Toy Drive raised 230 toys for Toys for Tots, a military organization who distributes the toys to children who are without.  Last year 20,000 toys were handed out, that equates to 20,000 smiles of children.  What better way to instill a sense of hope in a child’s heart than through compassion?  Toys for Tots also donates, all throughout the year, toys to children in our locality that are victims of disasters such as storms and house fires.

How TheDOJO Toy Drive Raised 230 Toys Last Year for Toys for Tots-Are you ready to do it again?




Make up your Mind to Make a Difference
We’ve made up our mind to make a difference and unleashing human potential is our mission.  Here’s how we do it…The Philanthropy of TheDOJO through Project Based Leadership Training.  If someone is looking to make a difference in our world a simple start is performing an act of kindness for a child (most likely it will be remember throughout their life).  Donate a toy with us this holiday season, see how below.

Last year TheDOJO Toy Drive raised 230 toys for Toys for Tots, a military organization who distributes the toys to children who are without.  Last year 20,000 toys were handed out, that equates to 20,000 smiles of children.  What better way to instill a sense of hope in a child’s heart than through compassion?  Toys for Tots also donates, all throughout the year, toys to children in our locality that are victims of disasters such as storms and house fires.

Guilt Free Gift Giving
The Day before Thanksgiving I took our 4 year old twins to the grocery store where they selected two grocery bags worth of food we donated to our local food pantry.  I just can’t bring myself to sit down and enjoy a thanksgiving meal knowing that other children and families will not be as fortunate.   Last year on Christmas morning while watching our children open their presents, it felt good knowing we helped 230 other children open presents through TheDOJO Toy Drive.  For many years I’ve explored this practice of mindful living.  This is what makes TheDOJO unique.  Parents of our students especially like best that their children have positive role models who live what they teach.
Leadership Training Taught at TheDOJO
Projected Based Leadership Training (PBLT) is an opportunity for experiential learning for children and adults.  PBLT is a practice of leadership, confidence, focused effort, execution and organization skills we teach at TheDOJO.  We take the qualities of the martial arts out of TheDOJO and into the world to make a difference.  Here are some ideas of others have done:  Tell others about the TheDOJO Toy Drive, Spread the word about TheDOJO Toy Drive on your social sites or shoot an email out to everyone you know, Set up a box for gathering donated toys at work, club, school or scout meeting.  I recently made a mere mention of the Toy Drive to a friend while conversing through email and that week they donated 3 toys!  I find most people want to perform acts of charity, especially when they know through a trusted friend or acquaintance their contribution goes where it is supposed to.  I personally really enjoy the spontaneity, creativity and synergistic cooperation I see students employ in executing these projects.

How To Donate to Toys for Tots this Holiday Season
Toys for Tots at TheDOJO-Donate New & Unwrapped Toys at TheDOJO 52 Park Ave Rutherford NJ 07070 from 3pm to 8pm Mondays to Thursdays and Saturdays from 9 am to 12 pm from now until December 17th. Make up your mind to make a difference this holiday season!
