Guidelines for Our Kung Fu Parents
1. Help keep our/your Little Dragons and Tiny Tigers perfect by having perfect attendance. Bring them to every class.
2. Pick them up on time… We have a strict schedule… Set the good example of punctuality for your kids.
3. No parents sitting in the classroom to watch (except during tests/graduations). We are an academy of professional instructors… Let us train your child with no distractions. We have found that the students listen to our instruction much better when parents are not in the classroom.
4. Please, Please ,please, attend their tests/graduations… they are working hard to achieve each level… Show up and help us build their confidence with your loving approval. We will try to announce their tests at least a week in advance.
5. Support our many activities… Seminars, Demonstrations, Summer camps, Tournaments, Fund raising, Book signings, Workshops, Pro Shop, etc.
6. Teach your child commitment … Don’t let them drop out because “it’s too hard” or “I would rather play outside with my friends today.” Make them understand that they enrolled into the Academy with a goal and an agreement. Teach them the value of sticking to something… commitment.
7. Don’t use school grades as a bargaining chip to take away their Kung Fu… Tell them about commitment (this involves homework, studying, chores, and everything in life.) Our Academy provides structure to their life. Kung Fu is all about discipline and work. Bad grades are often due to lack of discipline and hard work. Regimented scheduling is the key… Kung Fu enhances these life-skills and should actually improve their grades!
8. Speak to us directly about ways to improve our Academy… we strive for both your approval and your continued support to keep our Academy the leader in martial arts instruction.
9. Refer our Academy to all your friends and associates!
