Try 1 Free Week of Kids Martial Arts
Most schools offer one free class. We offer one free week.
That's enough time for your child to settle in - and enough time for you to see how we actually coach. Sidekick Martial Arts & Fitness in Hasbrouck Heights runs small kids classes for ages about 3.5 to 14. Patient. Structured. No yelling. No hard sell.
What the free week includes
Classes for your child's age group (Tiny Tigers or Kids)
Real instruction from Master Joe's school - not a demo reel
A chance for your child to learn the warm-up, the expectations, and the room
Time for you to watch how corrections are given and whether your kid is noticed
A straightforward conversation after the week about whether it's a fit
What it is not: a one-class sample, a pressure pitch, or a "sign today or lose this deal" speech.
Who it's for
Parents in Hasbrouck Heights and nearby Bergen County towns who want:
Small classes where every child gets attention
Coaching that works for energetic kids, anxious kids, and kids with ADHD - without clinical promises we can't make
Discipline and confidence taught with patience, not volume
A long-term school, not a revolving door
If your child melted into the back of a big class - or bounced off the walls until someone got frustrated - this week is how you find out if Sidekick is different.
What the first visit looks like
- 1
You book.
Call, email, or use the form. We'll confirm age/program and what to bring.
- 2
You arrive a few minutes early.
Check in. Meet us. Your child sees the space before class starts.
- 3
Class begins with structure.
Warm-up, listening, fundamentals. Clear instructions. Firm tone when needed - never screaming.
- 4
Your child is coached, not parked.
Small classes exist so we can see who's struggling, who's ready for more, and who needs a shorter step.
- 5
You watch.
Notice how your kid is spoken to. Notice whether they look lost or included.
- 6
We talk when it makes sense.
After class or later in the week - about fit, not about closing a sale.
Come as you are. We care more about effort and respect than perfect uniforms on day one.
Expectations
Show up on time.
Effort matters. Trying is required. Perfection is not.
Respect is non-negotiable.
We don't yell kids into focus. We teach them how to listen.
We don't promise fast belts. Progress is earned.
If it's not a fit, we'll say so. Same if it is.

Common questions
Why a free week instead of one free class?
One class can feel like a performance. A week shows the real rhythm.
What ages can join?
Roughly 3.5-14 across Tiny Tigers and kids programs.
Is this for energetic, anxious, or ADHD kids?
Yes - those families are a big part of who we serve. We're not therapists and we don't diagnose. We offer small classes, clear expectations, and patient coaching.
Do I have to stay and watch?
You're welcome to watch. Many parents do, especially the first few visits.
What happens after the free week?
If it's a fit, we'll walk you through membership calmly. If it isn't, no hard feelings.
Is there a catch or expiration?
No fake urgency. Book when it works for your family.
