Taekwondo is often seen as a solo sport. I believe teamwork is an integral part of Taekwondo, especially during training.

How do you think teamwork comes into play when doing taekwondo?

This week's philosophy of the week is Student Cread # 2. "I will develop self discipline in order to bring out the best in myself and others."

This seems particularly applicable when practicing sparring. While practicing sparring, we are also learning self-defense. When we are training with our teammates, it is important that we raise our intensities at the same rate. It is important to push our teammates while training together while also using self-control. If we notice that one of our teammates is working very hard, it can inspire others to work harder as well and get better.

This week's philosophy of the week has to do with taekwondo's children home rule number 5. "Children must help with household chores."

An often overlooked rule that demonstrates respect to your family and parents, children home rule number 5 is something that teaches our children to be responsible for more than just their own messes. As sometimes children are inherently selfish and say "it's not my mess," or "I didn't leave those dishes there," we need to teach our children responsibility and duty to help others, especially in the home. If children can learn this, they may also learn to develop a sense of duty to help others outside of the home. They may start to think more broadly about society and want to make a change where they see a problem in their larger community.

We hope that everyone had a great week training. Don't forget to stretch and get some practice in at home for the long weekend. We will be closed on Monday, October 12th, for the Holiday.

I had a great time teaching a self-defense class to the seniors of Academy at the Lakes. We emphasized self-confidence as a key quality for being able to take the right actions if a dangerous situation were to arise. These girls were full of confidence and anyone would be a fool to take advantage of them. ๐Ÿ’ช

BRAVERY is this week's philosophy of the week. Bravery comes in many different forms. Most of the time we think of bravery when we think of someone running into battle or running towards danger. But we can also see bravery in less obvious ways. Bravery can be seen when someone decides to speak in front of a large crowd, bravery can be seen when someone does what they think is right, even when they think even their friends may ridicule them for their actions, or bravery can be seen in the most simple day to day activities like going to school when you know you may face bullies who make your life difficult when you are trying to get an education.

What other forms of BRAVERY can you think of?

Part of CONSISTENCY is building habits. Try to build good habits and consistency becomes much easier.

A good way to maintain consistency is to have people around you hold you accountable. Great teammates are perfect for keeping you accountable, and motivating you to maintain your consistency.

How do you maintain your consistency?

Having INTEGRITY isn't always easy. There will likely be times in everyone's lives where integrity is a challenge. You may want something so badly that you decide that doing the easy or unethical thing is ok. Those are the moments when we are tested as martial artists.

Can you give an example of a difficult time when your INTEGRITY was tested?

Just like we train our muscles in the dojang, we also need to train our minds to be prepared for difficult times where our integrity may be tested.
