Training and Goals First
of all I want to thank all who participated in the Spring Region 7
Tournament. I am very proud of
everyone! I am really happier that
students attend and do their best at Regional Events than whether they
win. You represented our school and
the art well! As
for training (parents please help me with this) I want everyone to know that
I am supporting you and your goals. DO NOT FEEL OBLIGATED to participate
in events anymore than is comfortable for you and the same goes for
testing. Kids, stick with training
even if you feel a lull in the action.
The benefits of training sometimes come in spurts and sometimes it
seems as though they are coming slow or not at all. Stick with it. IF you want to test, you
need to meet the requirements. Part of
those requirements at a higher level (Red belt and above) requires
participation in Regional Events. IF you just enjoy being in class,
that is fine also. Please understand
that I run class with progression and promotion as the objective. Each individual has a different level of
motivation and set of training goals, thus some progress faster than
others. The reason for this article is
to hopefully clear up any miscommunication on what I expect from
students. If you think about it, I
really only expect you to meet your expectations. I think the short of it is; everyone be as
active as you can. Dan members should
be the most active and lead by example.
I believe that as you spend more time in Soo Bahk Do, it is natural
you won’t want to miss out on training opportunities. Please talk to me if you have any questions
about this. Jack
