Expected Results
Martial arts training provides a sanctuary and a focus, and a safe space to exchange knowledge and problem solving. Other benefits include:
· Improved fitness – Martial arts are a full body workout for all people and all levels of fitness, it is extremely scalable and progress is highly achievable.
· Learning - Martial arts are invigorating and mentally stimulating and teaches you the perseverance and patience needed to learn new things.
· Friendship and Belonging - when you learn Martial arts you instantly make friends, it’s a highly sociable sport.
· Self-esteem - learning anything new can seem impossible at times, especially when other people around you may have more experience. Learning Martial arts helps you overcome these feelings and teaches you determination and how to overcome challenges.
· Problem solving - training Martial arts can feel like a bit like playing human chess, and it is very addictive. Dealing with failure and being humble in success are part of every-day life in a class and will equip you well for life outside of the mats.
· Respect - respecting your teammates and being disciplined in your learning and training are integral to your daily training. If you do not respect your training partners you may not have any tomorrow! Being respectful transcends into everyday life outside the mats.
Why does your target community require assistance?
The social make-up of the target communities and is often cited by schools and youth organisations as a contributing factor to anti-social behaviour and poor resilience of young people.
This manifests in a variety of culturally specific youth gangs and young people who are socially isolated and marginalised, and therefore destructive - rather than constructive, contributing and thriving members of society.
Kids and Youth living in these communities and from migrant families do not have equitable access to mainstream sporting, physical and social activities which can help to develop skills around self-esteem, leadership and teamwork - and drive social connections. These gaps in participation translate to gaps in opportunity, which if not addressed, result in continued issues of disaffection in society (leaving school, unemployment, violent and aggressive behaviour etc.)
This program has been designed to identify and address the following key challenges not currently being met by existing programs and offerings in the area:
• The need to provide tailored opportunities for students from language backgrounds other than English
• Providing inspiring and rewarding activities for these students who are disengaged with school and community
• Engaging students from low socio-economic, CALD and socially isolated backgrounds who often experience a disconnection from family and community
• The need to better engage parents who often have experienced these same hardships themselves
• Addressing the tensions and anti-social behaviours that can develop due to these challenges and teaching young people to celebrate diversity and differences
What outcomes do you expect to achieve from your project and how do these relate to the program objectives and outcomes.
1. Promoting inclusion, cohesion and understanding by teaching coping mechanisms, leadership and life skills
2. Improve opportunities for inclusion and participation in society and Australian pastimes for refugees and recent humanitarian immigrants -
giving them the confidence to explore further opportunities which are available to them
3. Improving resilience, pro-social behaviour, peer problems, social self-efficacy
4. Improve life skills across confidence, personal identity, mental health and wellbeing and relationships for better community engagement
5. Support participating girls and boys to better engage in their personal development and community, and provide opportunities to integrate and feel part of Australian society rather than socially isolated and marginalised by their family circumstances
6. Create friendships and social connections
7. Increase participant's engagement in school and therefore their opportunities for employment and further education
8. Create opportunities for young people to be empowered as leaders and inspirational role models
9. Reduce peer problems and improve cross-cultural relationships
In achieving these objectives, this program will directly deliver against the intended outcomes of this program - by encouraging social participation, teaching life skills, reducing barriers, reducing the feelings of marginalisation and socialisation, and promoting social cohesion - we can provide a new pathway for kids and youth to become contributing members of society who are empowered to positively participate in their
communities and aspire to positive futures for themselves.
This workshops will lead to our next program called Future Champions where students will have access to a free 5 or 10 weeks program diving a bit deeper in the history, culture and technical skills in the sport of Judo and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
