Fall 2025 Enrichment

At St. Bernard Academy, student enrichment opportunities extend beyond the traditional school day.

Many of our SBA students utilize after-school programming after the school day. In addition to our regular Aftercare Program, we offer a multitude of learning opportunities for students in the afternoon hours. Please read below for our Aftercare Enrichment catalog and current registration information.

Muay Thai Martial Arts

My name is Dj Miller. I was born in California. I found Muay Thai at 18 years old and have been hooked on it since! Classes will be partner-based. Kids will wear boxing gloves while their partner wears boxing mitts; these are included in the class price. I will teach students the techniques for how to punch and hold the mitts. As a class, everyone will practice throwing simple techniques that I demonstrate for an entire round, which will be 2 minutes. When the round is over, partners will rotate roles. Once 2 rounds have passed, and each kid has gotten a chance to practice punching and holding, I will introduce the class to a new technique. That is the main core of the program. A portion of the time will also be dedicated to plyometrics, conditioning, and stretching. I will dedicate time during stretches for the kids to express how they're feeling or what they're thinking. There is a therapy in Muay Thai that I think I believe everyone should know more about, especially teens. They'll be exposed to respect and discipline in a very cool way! Muay Thai teaches fighting, but it mainly teaches the need not to fight. Control is the key.
