Meet Your Coach

David 'Vava' Littlewood (or "Coach Vava" as the kids call him) is the owner and head trainer at Bodyfit KC.

Vava's background in fitness began with martial arts. He is a Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Coach Vava has 20 years of experience in teaching martial arts to kids and adults, as well as classroom experience through his time as a special-ed teacher.

PROGRAM STRUCTURE

Students will attend 5 days of camp at Bodyfit, and upon completion of the week, we will celebrate their accomplishments with a strip ceremony and skills demonstration held at Bodyfit.  All students will be given their stripes, achievement awards will be presented, and parents will get a chance to see their child's growth and new martial art skills.

THE PRINCIPLES OF A BLACK BELT

Martial arts is the perfect combination of fun, physical activity, and learning.  We teach both martial arts techniques, and important values.  Your student will learn respect, self-control, teamwork and a positive mental attitude.  In each session, we'll focus on character development as well as specific self-defense techniques that are designed to protect a smaller martial artist against a larger, stronger opponent.  In this fun, high energy setting kids get great physical exercise, and have a positive and healthy outlet for all their energy.
