Merit Badges

LIFE SKILLS EDUCATION

Our merit badges are more than just badges to be worn on a karate gi. They are a component of our life skills education for children. It is an innovative and exciting "Learn to Earn" system that enhances our learning environment. The implementation of merit badges is also a character building system. Through "Learning to Earn", our students acquire the self-esteem that comes only from overcoming challenges to achieve their goals. Awarding merit badges creates an environment that develops self-respect, self-confidence, and self-discipline.

Merit badges offer life skills from confidence building, teamwork values, good character and manners. It also provides our students with invaluable career, physical and interpersonal skills.
