Labor education. Labor education of a young athlete is aimed at the formation of sports diligence, the desire to achieve high results, creative activity and independence. The main task of labor education in a combat horting club, as a component of moral formation, is the formation of their emotional readiness for work, elementary skills and abilities in various types of work, interest in the world of work of adults. An important aspect is an individual and differentiated approach to the child's personality (taking into account interests and abilities in the sport of combat horting, preferences, abilities in other types of human activity, acquired skills, personal sympathies when setting work tasks, uniting children into working subgroups, etc.) and moral motivation for children's labor. It is necessary to abandon authoritarianism, rigid regulation of labor activity, and more often organize work with small groups of young athletes in an atmosphere of openness, friendliness, mutual assistance, and creative search.

Aesthetic education. Aesthetic education of a young athlete serves the harmonious development of his personality, which subtly feels the beauty in life and sports. Aesthetic education as one that contributes to the development of natural inclinations, creative abilities, talents, creative imagination, fantasy is also considered in the context of the formation of a child's personality on the eve of adulthood. The implementation of its tasks is based on broad integration and permeates the entire pedagogical process in the combat horting circle, covering various forms of work with children (educational health classes, combat horting competitions, independent artistic activities, holidays, entertainment, other circles). These forms comprehensively use examples of the achievements of famous athletes, coaches, combat horting judges, works of music, theater, literature, fine arts in the context of universal and national culture. At the same time, purposeful pedagogical communication is organized in the art environment with the aim of introducing the student of the combat horting circle to a certain historical era, familiarizing him with the combat and cultural traditions of the Zaporozhian Sich and the national color, means of artistic expression inherent in various types of art (painting, sculpture, architecture, music, choreography, theater, literature).

Its solution is carried out in the following directions: the formation of realistic ideas about natural phenomena (including when conducting classes in the fresh air), elements of ecological worldview; the development of a positive emotional-value, caring attitude to the natural environment; instilling practical skills of appropriate nature use. When introducing young athletes to nature, it should be taken into account that each region of Ukraine has specific natural and geographical features. Teachers of combat horting must expand and deepen their own knowledge and the knowledge of students about nature, everyday life, culture, and ethnic traditions of their area. Environmental education is designed to provide the younger generation with scientific knowledge about the relationship between nature and society, to help understand the multifaceted significance of nature for society as a whole and each person in particular, to form an understanding that nature is the fundamental basis of human existence, and man is a part of nature, to cultivate a conscious good attitude towards it, a sense of responsibility for the environment as a national and universal value, to develop creative activity in protecting and transforming the environment, and to cultivate love for the nature of one's native land.

Preventive education of athletes involves the implementation of measures aimed at preventing crimes and delinquency, improving the lifestyle of students without violating moral norms, developing conditions that contribute to preserving the health and life of children, identifying negative changes in the behavior of students of the combat horting club, studying the causes and conditions that contribute to the commission of a crime, preventing their further development, organizing meaningful leisure, improving work with adolescents with deviant behavior, and providing them with assistance in self-education. The goal of preventive education in a combat horting club is to form legal awareness based on the legal knowledge, ideas, and beliefs that have developed in our society, feelings that regulate behavior: a sense of the legality of the chosen goal, the legality of the ways to achieve it, justice, and active opposition to violators of the laws of our country, a radical improvement in the legal culture of all participants in the educational process in a combat horting club, prevention of asocial behavior among students, and prevention of the use of narcotic substances, alcoholic beverages, and smoking.

It is aimed at developing the talents and abilities of athletes in the national sport of Ukraine, their own observations, cognitive interests in a certain field of knowledge in technical creativity, modeling, invention, promoting the intellectual, emotional and aesthetic development of young athletes, the ability to see cognitive problems in the field of physical culture and recreation, scientific and technical, artistic, decorative and applied creativity, ecological and naturalistic, tourist and local history, competitive and physical culture and sports activities.

The main ways to develop children's talents in a combat horting club are an optimally constructed educational and educational process, rational organization of extracurricular forms of work and effective interaction between family and school.

Educational tools used in the work:

– personal example and pedagogical skills of the teacher;

Intellectual development. Intellectual improvement in combat horting is in studying the philosophy of combat horting, the history of the subject in all possible interpretations and aspects of sports and non-traditional medicine. A combat horting athlete must constantly study and improve his intellectual level in all areas of human activity, be well-versed in issues of pedagogy, sports psychology. Study the combat and cultural traditions of other peoples of the world. Neglecting the knowledge and experience of another culture in martial arts and in military art in general, as well as in other related areas, is not beneficial to the development of the personality. Every athlete, student, master, coach is a person who makes up the general experience of combat horting as a martial art. If art does not develop, does not acquire new forms, does not enrich its internal content, it gradually becomes a frozen art of the past. Expanding the level of knowledge is generally useful for the mind, and for a combat horting professional - a representative of a new formation of the sport, it is simply necessary. In addition to the educational philosophy of combat horting and medicine, a modern master of combat horting also needs other knowledge that contributes to understanding the processes of skill growth. For example, in anatomy and physiology to a certain extent, biomechanics, theory and methodology of physical education, pedagogy, some issues of psychology, for example, conflict psychology. The master must have the skills of providing first aid for injuries and, of course, know his subject and develop it, engaging in scientific and research activities. Research activities in combat horting mean constant experimentation, creativity in studying techniques, knowledge of deep processes of education and self-education.

Spiritual growth. One of the most important aspects of the comprehensive education of a young athlete is spiritual education. In the modern world, a world of false idols and false values, the educational process is absent altogether or replaced by the process of growing the body through enhanced nutrition, elite sports, studying an unjustifiably inflated number of subjects in educational institutions. And the vacuum of spiritual education, created by the imperfection of the educational system, is successfully filled with extraneous things from the streets and alleys, which in a huge stream fall on the unformed psyche of the child from TV screens, from the stage, from newspapers and magazines and other mass media. Society does not sufficiently deal with issues of mass physical culture and mass sports, issues of educating the personality of athletes. More and more sports functionaries today are interested in the financial side of sports. Trading in muscles today is becoming one of the most profitable types of business. Sports are actively developing in the form of spectacular fights for money. The internal sloppiness of some modern sports, despite the external attractiveness of their visible part, does not give grounds to believe that every sport today can be considered as a system of educating young people.

Therefore, understanding these important aspects, specialists in modern combat horting take care of the spiritual education of students. Of course, everyone who is engaged in combat horting can improve both spiritually and intellectually, but this is in no way connected with physical education classes and does not follow from them. Spiritual education is understood as the formation in a person of a conscious and reverent attitude to his work, which should be useful for people, love for the native land of ancestors, parents, Motherland and other spiritual concepts. The philosophy of combat horting also speaks of the formation in a person of the ability to sacrifice himself, his personal interests for the good of the family.

Spiritual improvement is understood as a person's desire to get rid of all the vices inherent in a person, such as pride, vanity, lust for power, the thirst for accumulation of material goods, fornication, envy and the like. It is obvious that the term "spiritual improvement", which defines one of the aspects of personality education in combat horting, is not used with the aim of creating external attractiveness, but with the desire to use time-tested methods to improve educational work with students. A highly spiritual person who is brought up according to the traditions and philosophy of combat horting will follow the principles of universal morality and justice throughout his life, and the strength and knowledge of combat horting that a person has received during classes will give him confidence on the path to achieving his goal.
