Discover how martial arts can do more than teach kicks and punches — it can transform children's lives.

In Child Development Skills for Martial Arts Instructors, Steven Cowan — a 4th-degree Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt and certified Pediatric Ninja Specialist — shares his proven system for using martial arts as a powerful vehicle for developing children physically, intellectually, emotionally, and socially.

Drawing on over 25 years of teaching experience and years of work on the Skillz Council, Steven explains how to:

  • Structure age-specific classes that match a child's developmental stage
  • Build confidence, focus, and resilience through intentional drills and games
  • Engage parents as active partners in their child's growth
  • Train instructors to think beyond technique and into true child development coaching
  • Packed with real-world case studies, practical lesson frameworks, and strategies used successfully in schools across the UK, US, and internationally, this audiobook is a step-by-step guide for anyone who teaches — or wants to teach — children in a martial arts setting.

    Whether you're a school owner looking to improve retention, an instructor wanting to inspire your students, or a parent curious about how martial arts can support your child's growth, this audiobook will show you exactly how to turn your dojo into a hub for life-changing development.
