The founders
Since the founders, Sijo J. Patenaude and his wife, Linda, recently passed away in a tragic motorcycle accident.
The family is more motivated than ever to continue the family legacy.
Since the founders started teaching martial arts in a church basement in 1975, much has changed
Not only from being the largest chain of martial arts schools in Canada
To the thousands of students training every week
To the expansive list of DVDs and books being offered
But although different than in the beginning, much has not changed.
Techniques change all the time but principles stand the test of time.
The Patenaude System is based on core principles.
Core Principles
Principles of speed, power, reflexes, coordination, flexibility, focus, intensity, and confidence.
Each principle is developed “side by side” with the student learning the various physical techniques of the martial arts.

Most parents are constantly looking for activities that will help their child expand and grow.
Is it any surprise that after a couple of months parents start noticing a marked difference in their child’s self-esteem and confidence?
How can you as a parent maximize your child’s development? In this article we’ll cover the first of 3 tips:
Tip #1: Put your child on a healthy sleeping pattern right away!
Children need at least 8 to 10 hours of REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep each night. Children that do not get adequate sleep the night before tend to be groggy, grumpy, and thus have a harder time concentrating in class, not to mention tend to become more sensitive to social disputes.
Sleep also contributes to a healthier immune system. You can help your child enter each school day with a more energetic and positive approach simply by making sure they get the right amount of sleep each night.
Here’s how to set a healthy sleeping pattern with your children:
1. Establish a set bedtime and wake time for the weekdays. Make sure that you specify that this time is non-negotiable.
2. Set up some rules for 1 hour prior to bed time. There are many things that can affect how well your children sleep at night. If you set up some ground rules, then you’ll see better sleeping habits:
3. Establish a 20 – 30-minute nightly “calm-down” bed time routine. The routine should include taking a bath, putting on their pajamas, reading, and other relaxing activities. TV viewing at bedtime is not recommended because it may affect your child’s ability to fall asleep.
This is the very first step in laying the right learning foundation for your child. In our montreal martial arts for children programs everything we do is influenced by:
“How can we help make your job easier as a parent”.
This is just one of the many tips you can implement in your household and montreal martial arts for children is the best way to give your child an edge in school.
No wonder parents flock to our school to get them started in our martial arts classes. The benefits far exceed the conventional “learn to punch and kick” impression of what martial arts for children is.
