Leadership Training Program at ATA Irvine

This is an elite training level where students participate on all levels of our program:  advanced self defense, advanced weapons training, competition training toward State or World Titles, Extreme Martial Arts (we are a licensed XMA school), training to be a Nationally Certified Instructor, and, of course, how to be a confident, competent leader.

We will teach students the skills necessary to be effective leaders and to have a positive influence over their peers rather than their peers having any influence over them. They will learn how to be prepared to do their absolute best at anything they pursue and to become positive examples for others to follow. Dealing properly with unhealthy peer pressure, choosing the right friends, and avoiding dangerous situations are all results people see from our Leadership Program. 

Preparing tomorrow’s leaders...

Our Leadership Program focuses on four areas of development:

1. Communication-public speaking and learning to relate to others is key to building and establishing long lasting relationships. Students will learn with innovative ways to create this outcome.
2. Instruction-Role models are trained to share what they have learned through teaching individual and groups of peers to be the best they can be using different concepts and methods of teaching.
3. Performance-Leaders are instructed to recognize and feel what it takes to bring their abilities to the next level by learning how to show off their skills in front like a demonstration.
4. Competition-Students are given the guidance needed to compete at inner school and regional tournaments. Attributes such as balance, speed and power are taught in detail to make them a champion.

We also offer Advanced Training: 

• Weapons for hand and eye coordination
• State and world champion training
