Clean Mats = A Full House Getting new students and keeping the ones you have is always on the mind of a martial arts school owner. And in this age of virulent super bugs like MRSA that can have potentially very serious and even fatal consequences, you must have a good hygiene protocol in place to protect your athletes as well as yourself and your school. Kenclean Plus is a hospital use disinfectant cleaner that kills the germs you need to kill while leaving behind a clean, fresh fragrance that lets your students know your school is clean, Kennedy Clean!

YOU ASKED HOW DO YOU CHOOSE WHAT DAYS AND HOURS YOUR SCHOOL WILL BE OPEN? We open when the phones start ringing and close after the last class. Our regular hours are 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. In summers, we are open 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.” — R O N D Y M C K E E , W H I T E T I G E R T A E K W O N D O & M A R T I A L A R T S , C A R Y, N C
Our general hours are from 12:30 p.m.-9:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday. Friday: 2:00 p.m.–7:00 p.m. Saturday: 9:00 p.m.–12:00 p.m. We do have Cage Fitness classes and Kinder Kicks classes earlier.” —MIKE METZGER, CHAMPIONSHIP MARTIAL ARTS, ORLANDO FL
The majority of our students are kids, so we run classes after school through the evenings. We have later class times for adults and also offer Saturday morning and early afternoon classes. That is what has worked best for us.” — K R I S T I N M I L L E R , C H A M P I O N S H I P M A RT I A L A RT S , G L E N V I E W, I L
We’ve tested several times and days to remain open over the past 10 years.

Dear parents and/or guardians...
Determination
This month we are learning about determination and why it is an important skill to develop and use. Determination is something we want our children to learn and create a habit out of. We want our children to learn to overcome obstacles and persevere through difficulties in order to achieve their ultimate goals. Many successful achievers in this world are exactly that because they had the determination to keep pushing until they achieved the end result they wanted.
• Do puzzles. Puzzles can be frustrating, but do not let your children give up. You can do them as a family or let them pick out their own puzzle that interests them.
DETERMINATION IS TO NEVER GIVE UP. DECIDING TO DO SOMETHING AND NOT STOPPING UNTIL IT HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED.
• Complaining is a bad habit that does not help someone become successful and remain determined. Help end this habit by having consequences for your children complaining about anything – homework, having to attend classes or completing chores.
YOUR SCHOOL INFORMATION
HOW CAN YOU HELP?
• When your children start a new sport or special activity, do not let them quit right away if was difficult or they did not succeed immediately. It is very important to make them finish to show them how to be determined so they can complete anything they put their minds to.
• Lead by example. Show your children that if you have a goal at work, in the home, or physically, you will keep giving your all until you are able to achieve it. If children have a good role model to follow, it is more likely they will adopt those same skills and create habits from them. If they hear you or see you give up on something because it was too hard, they will be more likely to share that attitude on things in their life that seem too hard.
• Praise your children, act surprised at their accomplishments and recognize even just a hint of determination in their everyday lives.
