Pictures went very well this past Friday. I will let you guys know as soon as they are up and ready.

Drama: We only have TWO more rehearsals!! Please, please, please be practicing your lines. It would be very bad if during our performance I had to cue you on a lot of lines.

TKD: Congrats to Kyle, Kaitlyn, and Hudson for passing their testing this past Friday! Everyone else, you have this week and next to perfect your forms.

*For our demo on May 9th

Jacob - let me know if you want to do forms as well or recite the Tenets or Vocab.

2nd class competition!

During the second TKD class we had a competition to see who could stay in the push up position the longest ...

In first place was Travis with 5 minutes and 5 seconds

and in second was Hudson who almost made it to 5 minutes!

So.. the first TKD class will have to try to beat that record!

See you guys next week. :-)

PHOTOS BY MARY KING - THIS FRIDAY APRIL 25TH!

Please bring $5 (for each class) if you plan on having pictures made. All costumes/uniforms need to be brought. You do not have to buy photos. Either way, the whole class needs to be in the group shot. There are no extra fees.

Younger drama: You guys are doing great!
For photos:
Audrey: Little Red Riding hood costume
Jaiden: we are going to miss you!
Maille: Pink shirt, yellow shirt, step-mother costume + apple

Older drama: No excuses next week if you forget costumes! I think everyone has theirs, but pack it the night before and put it in the car so it is not forgotten! Practice your lines as well! If you don't, you mess everyone up, not just yourself. I don't know if we will have time to run through the play.


TKD: All you guys needs for photos is uniforms. Make sure you are practicing forms at home with POWER! Sleeves need to snap on those punches! =].

Also.. I want to know if any TKD student in interested in doing a presentation during the AAL End of the Year program? This is could be performing their favorite form or reciting vocab or tenets. For my older class, MAYBE a breaking. We will have to work on those. Let me know if anyone is interested!

ALSO! The end of the year is soon. Please make sure payments are in. Thank you.

Updates April 13, 2008

Drama: Little drama is going great! Jaiden - bring a cute dress. I may have a dress-up dress for you, so we can compare Friday.

Older drama - You guys should be studying your lines at home. We only have 3 more practices until performance! I also expect costumes to be brought each week. Surfer guys - All you need is a pair of shorts, and t-shirt or tank top, and flip flops.

TKD - Practice forms at home! They are getting much harder. Our testing is May 9th and pictures are April 25th!

Tenets of Tae Kwon Do (learned so far): Courtesy, Integrity, and Perseverance. Perseverance: Never give up! We will learn two more tenets in the next couple of weeks.

Updates April 5, 2008

Drama: We worked a lot on the plays yesterday. Just remember: Bring costumes and props EVERY week.

Older drama students: I would like all of my older students to read the story of Jonah from the Bible and tell me some things from the story that they liked, or thought interesting.

Practice, practice, PRACTICE your lines! Everyday ;-).

TKD: I am working with Master Steve for another testing date this April.

Our first Tenet was Courtesy (respect for instructor, students, building, etc). We learned Integrity this past Friday. It means being able to know right from wrong, and choosing to do whats right.
