In an attempt to not only teach children important life-saving self-defense skills but also to teach children important life skills, the Milic Sport Club offers martial arts classes in Hollywood.
Founded in 2008, Milic Sport Club aims to provide individuals with extensive knowledge of the martial arts in an environment that promotes personal well-being, growth and development, according to its website.
Sensei Andrej Milic, the instructor who has 16 years of martial arts experience, said the martial arts classes teach children how to deal with bullying (the problem he thinks ranks No. 1 among children), how to escape if attacked by strangers and values like confidence and leadership.
“I think it’s important to get kids empowered,” Milic said. “We teach them how to take control of situations and teach them positive habits. One thing every kid will leave these classes with is discipline.”
In addition to empowerment and discipline, Milic said martial arts offer children great exercise. He said kids have a lot of built-up energy and these classes are a positive way for them to burn that energy off. The classes are limited to 15 children in order to provide more personalized training and are offered all year. And since Milic Sport Club understands that some parents are dealing with economic strain, Milic said they offer low-cost classes and allow first-time participants to try a class for free.
The classes and services Milic Sport Club offer have even gained national attention. Milic said the Clinton, Bush and Obama administrations have awarded the club both martial arts and fitness achievements.
“This is a good foundation for kids to start achieving personal success,” Milic said. “The skills they get from these classes are definitely going to impact their lives.”
Classes are offered at Anytime Fitness, 1715 E. Young Circle, on Tuesdays at 3:15 p.m. and Wednesdays at 5:15 p.m.
