WE HELP STUDENTS REACH THEIR LEADERSHIP AND PUBLIC SPEAKING POTENTIAL
Maybe you’ve heard about the Award-winning Leadership Program at Life Skill Academy, but did you know that the program is focused on teaching kids how to become great communicators?
The purpose of this program is to help your child become the best leader possible by developing their Verbal & Non-verbal Communication Skills.
So, Why Do We Do This?
BY THE TIME KIDS GET TO MIDDLE SCHOOL, THEY FALL INTO ONE OF THESE THREE GROUPS:
1. THE FIRST GROUP IS THE LEADERS.
These are the kids that think for themselves and make decisions for themselves based on what is right.
2. THE SECOND GROUP IS THE FOLLOWERS.
These are the kids who try desperately to “fit-in” & make decisions based on what peers directly or indirectly pressure them to do.
This group is most susceptible to:
- Fall in with the Wrong Crowd
- Experiment with drugs/alcohol
- Fall into other dangerous behaviors
3. THE THIRD GROUP IS THE LONERS.
These are the kids that tend to keep to themselves and sometimes think of themselves as weird.
Some Dangers Sadly Include:
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Suicide
- Sadly, Even School Shootings
WHICH ONE DO YOU WANT YOUR CHILD TO BE?
If you’re like most people, you want your child to be in that right crowd.
In my experience, the best way to safeguard your child against unhealthy peer pressure, against following the wrong crowd, and Stay out of Dangerous Situations is to build their Confidence, Communication Skills and Leadership Qualities needed to become Leaders instead of Followers or Loners.
IS THIS WHAT YOU WANT FOR YOUR CHILD?
Your child will learn that the quality of their Communication is directly related to the quality if their Life.
How they will connect with others is one of the most important skills that decide whether they will become successful in life or not.
In the Leadership Program, your child will be guided to learn how to:
1.STAND TALL:
We teach your child how to use good body language such as sitting and standing straight.
2. EYE CONTACT:
We teach them how to make eye contact while listening and speaking.
3. CLEAR VOICE:
Your child will be required to speak in a way that others have an easy time understanding them (No Mumbling!)
4. TEAM SPIRIT:
We teach all Leadership students how to have good sportsmanship such as congratulating the winners, not complaining when they lose, and not bragging when they win.
Leadership Classes are scheduled before and after each martial arts class every day for your convenience! Our team is super committed to helping your child make and keep commitments, so a successful candidate will be able to make it to class every week.
Leaders know that continued personal is vital for success.
Each month, kids will have one online Fire-Side Chat that focuses on Life Skills.
Candidates for leadership training do not have to have perfect behavior or straight A’s, but they do need to be dedicated to doing their best.
This includes personal relationships, scholastic diligence, and behavior at home.
