Taekwondo parents specials for massage therapy

Hey this is Kat one of the instructors here at CTC. I just wanted to let everyone know about the great rates I have going on for Parents here at the studio. Take a look and give me a call if you are interested. Thanks Kat :)

Becomming a Master: testing for an instructor.

I was blessed last weekend to have Grand Master Na visit us from Seattle, Washington where he tested me for my 4^th Degree Black Belt. Testing, as all of you know is nerve-racking and scary….even for a master. No matter how much you practice or how high your rank, testing is challenging because it requires you to effectively perform the skills that qualify you for your next rank. It is where you have to put your abilities on the line and allow others to critique and evaluate you. It is hard emotionally and physically. Yet, it is a great opportunity to develop as an individual. It provides the opportunity to build confidence in your abilities. I pray that my learning never stops. I will always strive to advance my own training as a martial artist so that I may become a more effective master instructor for my students. Please join with me in celebrating this rite-of-passage as I move into my next level of training as a martial artist and an individual. It is going to be a great year!

If there are any questions regarding the program, or you need an orginal copy, feel free to contact the office. Thanks everyone

CTC Etiquette and respect

Parents: We noticed this letter did not actually make it home, although we went over it in class. Gave handouts to everyone, and asked them to sign a form saying they received this letter and took it home. This is the letter about respect, and common etiquette used in the studio, toward others, and toward the environment. This was handed out after a meeting of Senior instructors decided we were very unclear at our studio as to how students should respect themselves and others. This letter was a revision of information spanning eleven pages from http://tkdtutor.com; the letter was actually written by two of our student instructors in our Leadership Program. If the letter doesn't size to a printable, readable version, come in to the office, and we can get you one printed up. Documents are more difficult to send as attachments in email, as we are running with Microsoft Office 2007, which is not really compatible with older versions. So, there you go!

Interest in a back to school program?

At the studio, we are putting together a lot of ideas to serve our students better. We want to know what people think about having an after-school program. This program would be right after school until about 5:30 or 6:00. It would be considered actual class time, so picking up a child early would be discouraged. Students would dedicate time to their homework, enjoy an afternoon snack, have games and activities, and of course have their taekwondo lessons. Does this sound like a good idea? We need your feedback, as the numbers of interested parents will dictate our future actions.

Let us know. leave us a reply, or email us. Thanks so much!
