What They'll Gain

What Your Teen Will Get Out of This

Real results — on the mats and in every part of life.

Real Self-Defense Skills

Teens learn practical techniques that work against real threats — not choreography. They'll know what to do when it counts and have the confidence to back it up.

Build Confidence and Resilience

Every technique mastered and every challenge pushed through builds the kind of quiet, earned confidence that carries into school, social situations, and their future.

Develop Focus and Discipline

Martial arts training sharpens the mental skills teens need most — attention, self-control, and the drive to finish what they start. Skills that show up directly in school and beyond.

Why Calgary Families Love
Silverback Kids Martial Arts

Don't take our word for it — here's what our students and parents say.

"From the very first class, Paul and Eric the instructors went above and beyond to make my son feel welcome. He's naturally very shy, but they were so patient, encouraging, and kind that he quickly started to feel included and comfortable. Watching his confidence grow was incredible. If you're looking for a place where your child will be encouraged, respected, and helped to grow both on and off the mat, I can't recommend this studio enough."

"We love this martial arts school! Our kids have been attending with Sensei Arek Thankachen for 2.5+ years. The instruction is amazing (multiple instructors on the Canadian national team!) and the kids love it. Not only does it provide our kids with practical martial arts training, it nurtures and enhances many essential life skills. Sensei Arek and Ms Kim are fantastic with the kids; I highly recommend!"

"Sensei Arek is an amazing instructor and leader! My daughter has been training with him for three years now, and the difference has been incredible. She was very shy when she first started, but over the years she has built strong core strength, confidence, and has grown so much physically, technically and mentally. Thank you, Sensei Arek and all of the wonderful staff, for your dedication, encouragement, and support."

They have made our kids feel welcome, built community, grown their confidence and progressed their skills all while having a lot of fun! Big thank you to Sensei Arek and Ms. Kim!!!"

"Silverback Kids Martial Arts is an incredibly valuable activity. Our 3 young kids have done this for a few years now and we couldn't be more impressed with the progress they've made, the community they have created, and the discipline and skills they have developed. I really can't say enough about Sensei Arek, Ms Kim, and the rest of the team at Silverbacks."
