Green Belt Pledge

I pledge a continued effort to sharpen my skills, to increase my knowledge, and to broaden my horizons. I shall obligate myself under the direction of my instructor to learn the skills of a teacher, which will enable me to teach my skills in the prescribed manner
outlined by Mr. Parker.

My 3 children have attended Kempo classes for the past 3 years and in that time the difference in their attitudes towards other people has changed immensely for the better. Shaolin Kempo has excellent instructors who keeps the attention of all in the class. All the instructors are always willing to help wherever possible in all aspects of the children’s training. Thank you John and the other instructors for your help throughout the year with the children’s training.

Thanks Tammy

Lara started at Shaolin Kempo in 2^nd term 2012 at the age of 5. Our busy life style with both Brendan and I working full time we currently can only accommodate training once a week, although she ‘plays’ self defense on the weekend with daddy. Lara has excelled in self confidence and looks forward to her class every week. We were very proud of her and Lara’s cousin when they both graded and obtained their Orange Belts at the Christmas 2012 break up. Lara has already started to ask when classes start again for next year.

Thanks Mel
