I have been inundated with phone calls and emails for Warrior Kids, people wanting to know when my classes will start up again. I am currently taking a rest from running Warrior Kids classes.
Thankfully, though, I am hearing from people in different areas of the country who are starting to set up and run their own Warrior Kids classes. If you are one of these new Warrior Kids Instructors please send photos through and updates to let me know how you are getting on. This can be done through the Warrior Kids Facebook page or via email. Photos and news from your classes could end up here on the Warrior Kids website.
There is an increasing demand for Warrior Kids and lots of opportunities for those keen on being a Warrior Kids instructor. Buy yourself a copy of the Manual, Warrior Kids, Warrior Training for Children and get started. Also watch this space for up and coming Warrior Kids Instructor Seminars.
This month there is a new video. In Warrior Kids Role Modelling I talk about the importance and value of Instructors as Role Models. When Instructors embrace this role half of their work is already done. Children are hungry for safe and constructive Role Models, individuals that they can trust and look up to, who demonstrate constructive ways to live life and overcome challenges. Enjoy the video.
The history section of the Website has grown with three recent articles about Warrior Kids. Check them out.
For 16 years Warrior Kids has featured in schools and communities throughout New Zealand receiving numerous referrals from community and government agencies. The History, Gallery and Feedback pages tell our story.
In this novel for young adults, Haki must confront his fears and find a way to answer the challenge to serve his people, to serve his land, to fight a Taniwha and, ultimately, to become a warrior. An imiginative expression of Tim's warrior philosophy.

This new book by Tim Tipene features the complete ten sessions of the Warrior Kids' in-school programme in a format that instructors can apply to their own work with young people.
It is a rich resource for teachers, parents and those working with children who face emotional and physical challenges in their daily lives.
Warrior Kids is Tim Tipene's pioneering programme that over the past 18 years has empowered thousands of children.
Focusing on bringing out the warrior within, the Warrior Kids programme draws on Maori warrior concepts and Eastern martial arts in a non-aggressive way designed to instill confidence, respect and self-control, leading children to become masters of their lives.
