Hi everyone, Mr C here ๐Ÿ‘‹

Sorry for the radio silence ๐Ÿค

Yes I did drop my phone in a lake ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ˜… but I'm back online now!

I haven't been active online anyway as I've been focused on developing our students and getting many of them through this week's gradings ๐Ÿฅ‹

It's been incredible to see children learning and growing through the school holidays, when screen time typically goes up massively ๐ŸŽฎ

We've had children as young as 5 successfully complete their first grading without parents in the room, a huge step in courage and independence! ๐Ÿ‘

Some students who find it challenging to maintain focus in a regular class, have thrived through the stricter conditions of a grading and shown that they can do anything they put their mind to ๐ŸŽฏ

A quick reminder our classes will continue through the school holidays ๐ŸŒž with just a one week break commencing 24th August ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ

If your child has friends who are looking for activities during the holidays, feel free to bring them along to a class - no need to book I will sort out the admin when they arrive to make it easy for you. โœ…

Finally a massive well done to every student who has continued to make classes over the month of July, it's been a very hot one and I've done my best to adapt the class to make it safe and enjoyable for everyone.

See you in class soon! ๐Ÿซก
Mr Crompton

A strong mindset is one of the most powerful tools a student can develop. Martial arts teaches children to stay positive, work hard, and keep striving for improvement even when challenges arise. High standards combined with the right attitude create lasting success.
