In May we will be working on the character lesson: COURAGE.

Storm Family Martial Arts emphasises the importance of inner courage. We want to teach students the courage it takes to tell the truth or to stand up for what you believe in.

As you know, our goal is not only to train our students in martial arts but to help them become well rounded individuals with strong morals and a firm understanding of what is right and what is wrong. We will not only emphasise physical courage, such as the courage it takes to train as a martial artist but we will also stress the importance of inner courage. We want to teach the students the courage it takes to tell the truth or to stand out in school.

We have designed some drills in class to help students understand courage at every age level, as well as weekly mat chats about the subject.

The homework for our junior students this month is to try a new food at home, something that they have never tried before.

Thank you for allowing us to be a positive influence on your children and we look forward to watching our youthful students demonstrate their courageous skills in class.
