Fall has officially begun and we are well on our way into the next season of martial arts training. Our Little Tigers program in Coon Rapids is still taking applicants, so if you missed the registration last week, no need to fret. We have plenty of room for you and your children. The first class is tomorrow at Adams Elementary at 7pm.
The Young Americans Self Defense class in Logan Park has also gotten started and you can still sign up for that as well. The next class is Tuesday, October 8th at 6pm for beginners and 7pm for Intermediate students.
This month we talk about a concept that sometimes seems foreign to classes that teach combat. Peace.
“One cannot claim to be peaceful if one cannot commit violence. It means nothing to claim a thing if one has no means to break it.”- Old Proverb
Being peaceful and being harmless are two very different things. Those of us who practice the arts of war are usually also peaceful people because we are aware of the damage we can wrought on others when necessary, so we do our best to not have to do so. That said, we still train for that day when peaceful interaction is not an option. Something to consider.
Train hard,
