📣 AMA Parents & Students – A Message About Practice & Progress
Today in class, we talked about something incredibly important for every martial artist: repetition and consistent practice at home.
Unlike my previous school, where we trained six days a week, our current schedule means students must take more ownership of their training outside the dojang. To help them build discipline and balance, I introduced a new Martial Arts Homework system:
👉 Whatever amount of screen time they use — video games, YouTube, shows — they must match with the same amount of martial arts practice. If they play for 15 minutes, they owe themselves 15 minutes of focused practice.
This isn’t about punishment. It’s about building healthy habits, responsibility, and the repetition needed to truly grow in their techniques.
đź’Ş All of our students are improving, and with new students joining regularly, I will be expecting more and more from our higher ranks. Leadership starts with strong habits at home.
Parents, we kindly ask for your support in making sure students don’t rush through their practice. Quality matters. Repetition matters. Their student manuals are there to guide them — please encourage them to study and use them.
If you ever have questions about techniques or how to help your child practice correctly, please reach out. I’m always here to help.
Let’s continue growing together. — Sabuim Allan A-5-312
