Martial arts can teach kids more than how to perfect a roundhouse. At NextGen Martial Arts, instructors help youngsters (and some adults, too) boost their self-esteem, confidence, and focus through their martial arts classes and programs. Add in the health benefits, not to mention the fact that it's fun and can help you impersonate the Power Rangers, and there are plenty of reasons to start working toward a black belt.

• After school: An alternative to traditional after-school daycare, NextGen combines structured activities with supervised free time.
• Summer camps: Kids can spend the summer months physically and mentally engaged thanks to daily Tae Kwan Do classes, field trips, and more.
• Everything else: Add more skills to your repertoire with Tae Kwan Do (for both kids and adults) and Haidong Gumbo (Korean sword art for adults), and celebrate a special occasion with kids' ninja parties.
