Little Ninjas Kicks Off Confidence

Preschoolers begin our on-site Little Ninjas program, learning to bow in, focus, and try again in our dedicated martial arts room. Watch their confidence and discipline grow in real time.

Letters, Numbers & Art — Balanced With Play

Directed learning covers letters, colors, and early reading, always alongside open-ended play and art, so your preschooler gets a well-rounded experience.

A Private First Lesson, Before The Group Class

Preschool is when ALC’s martial arts room stops being something to watch and becomes something your child does — starting with a private, one-on-one first Little Ninjas lesson designed to ease any new-mat nerves. From there, they bow in, they focus, they fall down and try again, right alongside their classmates.
You’ll start to see that same discipline show up at family events, the supermarket, and the dinner table, not just on the mat.

ALC has been a great place for our boys. My oldest son started in Toddler3 until Kindergarten and my youngest son started in the infant room and is in PreSchool now. The summers my son enjoys the Summer Camp program. They go to different places everyday and aren't stuck inside. They are like family to us. It's very structured there and a lot of extra activities Soccer Shots, Parkette's, Tech Stars and Karate. Our boys have enjoyed all of them! It's a clean facility and super friendly. I would highly recommend this center to any family!

We've been very happy with our experience at ALC - our daughter has attended the preschool program for about a year and half and loves it! Her current teachers, Ms. Brittany and Ms. Celinda, have been great at providing photos of activities throughout the day and sharing what the children have been working on through the school app. It is obvious that they put a lot of time and care into creating fun themes and activities to help keep the kids excited and engaged. We love getting little updates on what our daughter is learning and they are always doing creative sensory activities and crafts. We also appreciate that there is a focus on movement and active time, and that there is a safe indoor area where the kids can play and move around when the weather is not appropriate for outside play. Our daughter will be staying until she starts kindergarten and we are looking forward to enrolling her younger sister soon!

My son has been at ALC Palmer for the past five months, and we are very pleased with his education, and care. He has learned so much in his short time here, in both the older toddler and Pre-School rooms. His vocabulary has grown tremendously, and I'm impressed by his manners (which are definitely being reinforced at school). We're grateful he loves his school and has so much fun learning. As a parent, I love the communication from the center with updates and photos daily/weekly. I also appreciate the care they give to make all their ALC families feel welcome!
