Precision MMA Expands to Become the Largest Poughkeepsie MMA Gym

Poughkeepsie MMA

If you haven’t noticed things are a little different around Precision. No longer are we falling all over each other while rolling. We now have a boxing ring, crash pads, pull up bars, benches, couches, surround sound and showers – in short, things have improved. Undoubtedly, you’ve also noticed the change in the class structure. Our instruction is no longer “one size fits all”. Something that separates Precision from other Poughkeepsie MMA gyms is that instead, we have devised a thorough beginner curriculum for new students with focus on the fundamentals. If you are just getting started these classes are designed to guide you by the hand through all the twists and turns of training. Rather than being “thrown to the wolves” the Poughkeepsie MMA classes emphasize proper technique, body positioning and strategy with less emphasis on sparring. We also have more advanced classes which are specifically designed to challenge and excite the higher ranking students. This program will incorporate more unorthodox techniques with synergistic combinations and heavier emphasis on live training (sparring, rolling, ect.). The intermediate program is the middle ground. Live training is included and a basic understanding is assumed, but the techniques are digestible for those still learning the ropes. For grappling we hold off on the advanced classes until blue belt, for striking advancement is at the discretion of the sparring coaches (Karl, Derrick or Brian). These changes may take some getting used to, but they will allow you to progress at the quickest and safest route possible. Also, don’t forget to take advantage of your open mat time to drill the techniques learned during the week. Now get to class!

Lagrange Family Martial Arts has children’s classes seven days a week. Every student is given a chance to excel in the martial arts with the qualified instructors that will give your children the one-on-one attention necessary for learning. The kid’s program will instill and nurture important values in your child such as being goal oriented, maintaining high levels of physical fitness, discipline, determination, focus and respect for authority. These essential lessons can be learned by a child while their parents are also going on their own martial arts journey. This shared experience will deepen the impact and really reenforce the importance of what the children are learning.

Time spent around caring and mindful adults is one of the most important influences in a child’s socialization and development. Children who lack proper supervision are far more likely to get into trouble and have similar problems as an adult. Many experts point to lack of proper adult supervision as the number one predictor of juvenile delinquency. Children cannot be expected to make wise or informed decisions, but the habits they form as children will follow them into their adult years. If a child looks to deviant peer groups or negative role models, their already shortsighted decision-making can become simply scary. People talk about role models and how hard it can be to find a positive one. Reliance on some distant and aloof sports star or paparazzi-hounded pop singer as a role model leaves to much to chance. A child must often be shown the right path, at least initially, and can’t be expected to know who will fail them and who will be a positive influence in their life. Children should ideally be looking to their parents and teachers as the real role models. The hectic schedule of a modern family can leave little time for the strengthening of these important societal bonds. Time must be set aside to forge these essential Familial links.

Lagrange Family Martial Arts provides a setting that can have your child consistently engaged in positive activities under the tutelage of knowledgeable and caring instructors. Instead of spending their free time playing video games, hanging out or surfing the internet, they will be in an environment that encourages good citizenship and reenforces the kind of constructive socialization that is necessary for a happy and successful adult life. Lagrange Family Martial Arts will be a place that your child can attend regularly and with enthusiasm.
