The Trading Ford Baptist Church Martial Arts program reaches out to serve as a vehicle for which to spread the message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to children from ages 7 thru 17. Tae Kwon Do, Aikido and Jujitsu are the primary arts. The classes consist of practical self-defense exercises, calisthenics and stretching. At the end of class, students enter the "Soldiers' Circle," a prayer-time meeting, to reflect upon our lives in our families and school environments, and what it means to be a Christian Soldier. Students have listed integrity, honesty, respect, patience and kindness as some of the core values in pursuit of this Christian Soldier model. The class follows the traditional colored-belt ranking system, with advancement directly related to fighting skill proficiency level as well as demonstrated character development as a Christian Soldier. Classes are free of charge.
