Wilderness Trail Festival Demo
Thank you to all who participated in the Wilderness Trail Festival Demonstration and to all the friends and families who came to show their support. We had a great turnout and a lot of positive feedback.
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. To help show our support for the people we love, we will be selling pink belts to any student for $20. The belt may be worn the entire month of October and all money donated will be sent to the Susan G. Komen Foundation. If you already have your pink belt from last year, a $20 donation will get you a stripe added to your pink belt. Outgrow your belt from last year? We have a plan for that. Please see Instructor Shaun or Instructor Lisa for more information or to order a belt.
Help Us Grow
We are always looking for ways to get out in front of new groups of people. If you like the program and could help, it would be most appreciated. Some of the things we are trying are demo classes for the John Newman Academy and a self-defense class with Montgomery County Parks and Rec. We would love to get in front of young people any chance we can get. Our target group is children 6 - 10 years old, we can also do classes for older students and adults groups. If you have a connection at any of the local organizations, like private and church schools, boy and girls scouts, or any other group we would love for you to make the introduction. Be sure to mention that we do most of these intro classes for free.
If you have any questions or suggestions, please see Mr. Petersen. Thanks!
