Because the habits children build at 6, 7 and 8 years old often become the character traits they carry into their teenage years and beyond. ๐ฅ
Every week our students are learning to:
โ
Listen and focus
โ
Show respect
โ
Work hard when things get difficult
โ
Build confidence in themselves
โ
Support and encourage others
And they have a lot of fun doing it ๐คธโโ๏ธ
This photo was taken at our class last night. A room full of children developing skills that will help them far beyond martial arts.

'I will share what I have learned with others, lead by example...' is actually part of our adult student creed
But I love to see even our youngest students and juniors taking on board this philosophy ๐ฅ
It shows leadership and courage way beyond their years to support another student like this ๐
Big well done to all of our students who help to lift each other up with encouragement and support ๐

Wishing our superstar student and junior instructor Kiron all the very best as he heads off to America ๐บ๐ธ
It's been a pleasure having him train with us, and he'll be missed by everyone at MF York. ๐ฅ
We've had so many compliments from parents about Kiron's attitude, kindness and willingness to help others. His personality and positive influence on the younger students will be truly missed.
A special thank you to his mum for all of her support over the years too ๐ Louisa Parrillo
Good luck on your next adventure, Kiron - we know you'll do great things! ๐

I was dreading bringing Cam to class tonight ๐ช๏ธ๐
He's only 2, but he spent most of the lesson watching the older children and copying what they were doing.
A good reminder that children are always watching and often copy what they see ๐
Really proud of both my boys tonight ๐๐ฅ
Thank you to Acomb for your support!
