Parties? At a Martial Arts School?
Hi, my name is Chris Lee, owner of YI'S Martial Arts Fitness Academy in Wood River, Illinois. I want to clarify something: YES, we're a Martial Arts School. We normally teach Character Development, Self Defense Skills, and Life Lessons that transform young people into strong, self assured leaders. But years and years ago, one of our life long students (the kind who's addicted to Martial arts, here everyday) asked if she could have her birthday at our school. We were honored to give it a shot. And let me tell you, that day, everyone found out that Martial Arts Birthday Parties are Awesome.
Let me tell you why. In our regular classes, we've seen ultra-shy kids burst out of their shell, ADD and ADHD kids learn how to control themselves, socially awkward kids learn how to make and keep friends, and even helped special needs children find a place to fit in and feel accepted. At our Birthday Parties, this translates into a much different feel than your typical "purchased" birthday party. On this page, I'll tell you a little about our parties, and if you think it might be right for your child, you can enter your email to get a full price list (there are multiple options) and if you'd like, even schedule your party online.
Set Up, Clean Up, Planning Activities, RSVPs, Booking a Location, and Still Making Sure Everyone has FUN?
Stressful, Right?
It seems like every year it's the same stress. Whether you're planning a birthday party at home or somewhere else, you face a MASSIVE amount of work.
The worst part is that just because you did all the work doesn't mean everyone has fun! There's NOTHING worse (at least for us) than planning, stressing, putting 100% of your energy into something and having people not enjoy it. Or worse, not appreciate it!

But There's a Better Way!
We've specifically designed our parties to help parents either avoid or easily conquer these issues. We've had family after family tell us that not only was our party the most fun their kids have ever had, it was also the easiest. And that's our goal!

Birthday Party Reviews
We Think It's Great, But What About Regular Parents?

Jason has Aspergers and ADD. Master Chris's class has helped Jason improve his self esteem, his social skills and has helped him focus more than I expected. The school does very well with Jason's disabilities, and they all help him blend in with all the other children. No one can even tell that Jason is different when he is in class. I give my highest recommendation for anyone to join a class at Yi's Martial Arts Fitness Academy.

My son Charlie has gained confidence and a new learned sport. He enjoys each class and loves the feeling of accomplishment.

Our Parties are Martial Arts Parties
They'll Totally Love It
This isn't your average, run of the mill birthday party. In fact, your birthday child and their guests will actually get to learn REAL Martial Arts moves in a structured, safe environment. It's very, very cool.


Life Skills
At a Party?
Because we're a Martial Arts school, your child and their guests will be walking into a disciplined, structured, culture of success. Yes, we'll have a LOT of fun, but we'll be having fun BECAUSE the party has structure.
As much as kids want to think so, they don't actually have more fun running around like crazy. Our instructors know how to keep the kids engaged and excited, while making sure that they're not out of control (You've seen those crazy birthday parties where kids are just nuts? Not ours.)
