Beginning in Jan 2018 we will be posting as much as possible our lesson plans for the coming weeks.  Realize these are templates and not set in stone, though you can use them to plan your workout at home if you can’t make it to class.

I will try to add more instructional videos as well on the techniques.

My goals for 2018

Use this communication portal more so all your questions can be answered on why we do what we do.

Post Forms Videos so you can go here and watch the Forms/Poomse/Hyung you and/or your child need to practice.

Post more info on the history of martial arts and our lineage.

Post more on FB with info pertinent to health, wellness, fitness, nutrition, exercise,  bullying, self defense, etc…

Publish my Bullying Defense Book, I’ve been working on since August 2017.

Work on my own personal training more by stretching everyday, eating healthier, and reading more.

We adhere to the Alton School District and the local school districts policies on closing during inclement weather.

However, as with any school closing we advise you to use your best judgement if the roads are clear by 2pm or earlier we will have classes unless the weather is too cold and/or icy weather is expected later in the evening.

Check our FB Fanpage link to see if we are having classes as this will be the quickest notification platform.

Since most of our student population is from the Alton/East Alton/Wood River Area, if these schools are closed we will be as well.

When the weather is bad if the weekend looks better we will post on FB the Makeup Class Schedule for that weekend.  We will try to remain open as much as possible during the Winter season after our Holiday Break just realize if we are open and you can’t make it due to roads not being plowed, too much ice on roads, etc…. Don’t get into an accident just to make it to class.  We will not be responsible for your decision just as much as we appreciate it when you keep yourself and/or your child home when they are sick with a cough, fever, sore throat or anything that can be contagious and spread to the other students and/or instructors.

Promotional Testings are typically not rescheduled due to inclement weather however, again there can be exceptions.  Please watch the weather forecast and keep our FB fanpage as a favorite bookmark or app.

Thank You

GM Chris and Team
