School News


Friends! Students! Countrymen!

Students try and bring at least 5 buddies to this months parents night out. The more friends the more fun! Also, don't forget to invite your friends to class. You as students can play a big part in helping the school grow. More students means more friends! At the very least, it means less attention will be focused on you during your belt tests!


Leave the Coaching to Us

Parents, we know you want your children to do their best in Tae Kwon Do. We also want your children to do their best in Tae Kwon Do. In order to accomplish this, please refrain from talking or "coaching" your children during class time. When you are at home, we encourage you to help your children practice. However, your children need to focus on one instructor, so please let Sabumnim do his job and run the class. If you have questions or concerns about your children's progress, Sabumnim is more than happy to talk to you before and after class.

Tae Kwon Do is not just about learning self defense. All students must follow the traditions, respect, and proper attitude. It doesn't matter who a student or instructor is. Senior students and instructors have earned their repsect regardless of their age or gender. Junior students are learning and deserve to be shown courtesy as well.
