Viking Martial Arts and Fitness

1 year ago. Munich, Germany. Such a great trip across the pond to play some face punch.

December the return of Team Viking's youth program!!! A new location in downtown Auburn is in the works. If your child is ready to get on the mats please contact Coach Vargason to secure your spots!

We aren't just for fighters. Our Little Vikings and Junior Vikings classes will push your kids in a fun active training setting. There is never a boring easy day at Viking. We build young coachable athletes. Learning Martial Arts is an added bonus. The kids get pushed hard while learning to control their bodies and minds. They will get faster, stronger, more confident, and have a great time doing it. Sometimes we have a little fun after class as well.

Possibly have some big gym news coming soon. The reopening of Team Viking could be happening very soon. Parents, leave a comment if you are looking to get your kids back into or started out in training.

THE IMPORTANCE OF TRAINING YOUR CHILDREN.
Dean had his first physical encounter with a bully recently.
An older larger boy had beat up a younger smaller boy at the mall. Dean witnessed it and confronted the bully. This kid is a couple years older than Dean, so Dean could have ignored it and not stood up for what was right. However, wrestling and MMA has taught him self confidence and given him the backbone most kids lack. The bully attacked Dean, training kicked in. (There is a video. I won't post it.) Dean did exactly what he should have, only because of his training. Without wrestling he could have been hurt and embarrassed. The fight lasted about 30 seconds as most altercations do. It was broken up by an adult and the conflict ended.
It only takes a second for some one to decide they may want to hurt your child. Does your child know what to do? Have you given them the tools to defend themselves and others?
Wrestling season is right around the corner. MMA gyms are on every corner. You as a parent have a responsibility to prepare your children for the cruel moments in this life. I do not want my kids to fight but when a fight comes to them, I want them to come out of the situation unharmed. Protect your kids. Get them training.
