STRONG ROOTS
HOMESCHOOL program
At Black Lotus Gym, we believe in nurturing well-rounded individuals. As a family-owned gym with homeschooling children of our own, we’ve created the Strong Roots Homeschool Program to offer a holistic approach to personal development and martial arts.
Combining self-defense, empowerment, kickboxing, and Muay Thai, our program is designed to cultivate confidence, discipline, and resilience while fostering meaningful connections within a supportive community.
What Sets Our Programs Apart?
Expert Guidance for Growth
With over 25+ years of cumulative coaching experience, our instructors bring unparalleled expertise to every session. Your child will receive personalized guidance tailored to their needs, ensuring they develop strong foundational skills in martial arts and self-defense while growing into their full potential.
Building Strength Inside and Out
Martial arts isn’t just about physical fitness—it’s about giving children the tools to grow into confident, disciplined individuals. Through structured classes that emphasize resilience and focus, your child will develop essential life skills that prepare them for challenges both on and off the mat.
A Community That Feels Like Family
We understand how important it is for homeschool families to find meaningful social connections. That’s why our program fosters teamwork and camaraderie through engaging group activities and interactive training sessions. Your child will build friendships while learning valuable communication and collaboration skills in a supportive environment.

This program is designed to provide a strong foundation in martial arts, self-defense, and personal development while fostering confidence, discipline, and resilience. It’s available in two flexible formats:

Classes are held for six weeks, allowing families who cannot commit to a longer program to still benefit from consistent training.
Students can enroll in multiple 6-week sessions throughout the year. Each session builds on the previous one, ensuring your child continues to be challenged at their skill level and progresses in their training. This option is perfect for families seeking flexibility while still providing their child with the long-term benefits of martial arts.

For families looking for a longer-term commitment, our semester program offers a comprehensive experience with ongoing training and development. This option is ideal for students who want to fully immerse themselves in martial arts and personal growth over an extended period.
