Cumming HapKiDo = Confidence Booster

. . .

The truth about lack-of-confidence is that it has no age limit; it is a feeling that both children and adults relate to. At Choe’s HapKiDo in Cumming, we understand that the reasons for lack of confidence are endless, but they are reasonable: the feeling of inadequacy compared to others; a history of negative feedback; the fear of being wrong; the idea of set-limitations. Our martial art program is developed to show students how to grow in confidence.

The Outcomes of Confidence:

SELF-ESTEEM BOOST. From day to day training, HapKiDo instructors make sure a student knows when something is done right. Through hard work and a positive attitude, students experience the feeling of being correct. And after one technique is conquered, students find energy to keep at it.

REALIZED POTENTIAL. The best part of watching progression in the training studio is when the student realizes it. It is like suddenly, a light bulb flashes and he/she witnesses the growth. Maybe an increase in strength is noticed, or a kick is flawless. But regardless, seeing the changes influences the want to do more.

NEW FOUND INDEPENDENCE. The instructors train students every step of the way until they believe he/she is ready for the next belt test. The belt tests allow students to perform independently. And after a new belt is achieved, it is understood that it was earned.

Although confidence can result in cockiness and false-pride, consistent training results in the students developing confidence in a healthy way. From being corrected on technique and etiquette, students learn that perfection comes from listening to advice and persevering to try again and again.

Choe's HapKiDo Karate Classes in Cumming GA teach the importance of Cumminity Service - Susan G. Koman Fundraiser

Choe's HapKiDo Karate Junior Instructors

The Junior Instructors at Choe's HapKiDo Martial Arts Academy in Cumming GA are very excited about our yearly fundraiser to support Breast Cancer Awareness by selling T-Shirts and Bracelets and donating the proceeds to the Susan G. Koman Foundation for a Cure.  This speech was given at our belt test in our Cumming location to all of our kids karate students, Adult Martial Artists and the parents and family that was in attendance.  A huge part of being a Martial Artist is serving the community, it is by teaching the students to give back that we can use the skills we learn at the Martial Arts School to make a positive impact on the world!  

"Hello, 

My name is Siddharth Nambiar and I am a junior instructor at Choe’s HapKido. Today I would like to talk to you about the Susan G. Komen foundation. The Susan G Komen foundation is a fundraiser for breast cancer. Before she married Stan Komen, Susan Goodman was extremely close with her sister, Nancy Goodman. Even after Susan married Stan and Nancy moved to Texas they still remained close. In the 1970’s, at age 33, Susan received terrible news; she was diagnosed with breast cancer. To treat it she received a subcutaneous mastectomy. She thought that her troubles were gone; unfortunately 6 months later it came back. She learned that the cancer had spread to one of her lungs. She continued radiation but the cancer still spread. She became a stage 4 patient, the worst kind. The cancer kept on spreading to all different organs. Susan decided to travel to Anderson Cancer Center in Houston. There she received chemotherapy. Unfortunately, a few years later Susan died. Before she died, she made her sister promise to start a fundraiser to ensure a cure for breast cancer. Nancy kept her promise and soon the Susan G. Komen foundation was built. Choe’s HapKido and their junior instructors are selling bracelets and T-shirts to raise money for the Susan G. Komen foundation. Last year we raised an amazing $700. This year, the 30th anniversary of the organization, we hope that everyone decides to help Susan G. Komen by getting a T-shirt or bracelet. We hope to raise more money than last year. Thank you."

Karate Classes in Cumming GA teach the importance of Quality Friendships

Martial Arts Junior Instructor gives a speech about Home Alone Safety

Below is a speech given by one of our awesome Junior Instructors. Miss Paige is a Junior Instructor, a young leader at the Kids Martial Arts School in Cumming GA. In an effort to become future leaders the Junior Instructors prepare and give speeches to educate the other kids karate students.  Paige gave a speech about the importance of friendship.

Friendship

by:

Paige

 

"Today I would like to talk to you about friendship. Our HapKiDo definition of friendship is one attached to another by affection.

What that means is that you care about each other.  You would not want anything to ever happen to them. If you get in a fight with your friend does that mean you or your friend do not care about each other anymore? No, it just means that you and your friend do not agree on something.
 
If you and your friend do not agree on something, try to compromise and meet in the middle. For example, if you want to play tag and your friend wants to play soccer. What would you do? You could either play tag for 10 minutes and soccer for 10 minutes, or you come up with a new game that combines both games. For instance, you could play ball tag but you cannot use your hands.
    
See friendship is all about compromise. Work hard to be a good friend."

Awesome job Paige!!!

Martial Arts Classes in Suwanee teach the importance of Community Service

Here is a speech given by one of our Junior Instructors. Mr Aiden is a Junior Instructor, a leader at the Kids Martial Arts School in Cumming GA. This speech is about the importance of community service, and the personal benefits of helping others.  He gave the speech at a Choe's HapKiDo Karate Belt Test held at our Cumming Karate School. Part of being a Junior Instructor is learning to be more confident and being able to speak in front of an audience, and Liam did an awesome job with his speech :)

COMMUNITY SERVICE

By: Aiden

            "Today I want to talk to you about community service and its benefits.  I’ve done community service with Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts.  Our troop cleaned up a river, sold pine straw, and put down mulch and sod at a local church.  Because of this service, the church grounds look nicer and kids have a softer surface to play on.  My neighbors good a good price on pine straw and made our neighborhood look better.  The river is cleaner for fish and wildlife and for people to enjoy.

            Another very special kind of community service is to become a foster family.  My family is applying to be a foster family.  You have to be patient because it takes several months.  My parents had to take some special classes and we all have to answer questions and have our house inspected for safety.  We hope to give a home to a girl who needs a safe place to live.  I think having another sister in the house would be pretty nice.

            I encourage others to volunteer in their community.  You can volunteer at animal shelters giving the animals food and water or walking the dogs.  You could serve meals at homeless shelters.  Visit with the elderly in nursing homes.  You can donate clothes and toys to people who need them.  You can also pick up garbage in your neighborhood or local park.

            You will feel good and help others while you are doing it."
