Disciplinary Patterns

Song-Song (30 moves, right foot returns) Means Imagination.  In the initial state of philosophical development, students must use their imagination to develop goals beyond their current limitations, and, from this, visualize their achievements in advance.  This, in turn, strengthens their belief system to the point that specific goals are possible and obtainable. 

Yong-Gom (40 moves, left foot returns) Means Inspiration.  With goals firmly in mind, the students must learn to inspire themselves into action as they develop a sense of self-worth.  Without this, one may never strive for success as they may feel that they do not deserve the rewards that accompany achievement. 

Hyun-Sil (50 moves, left foot returns) Means Actualization.  Actualization is taking the first step and entering into the process of the work and reward system.  The development of a strong work ethic is the most important element in this philosophy.  Even the most average of people can achieve excellence with a positive work habit. 

Sil-Hyun(60 moves,right foot returns) means Realization.  Realization refers to the attainment on one’s goals.  Upon reaching these achievements, new privileges are merited as new goals are recognized.  This process perpetuates itself as the previous results offer new challenges and new responsibilities.  This positive growth cycle not only improves oneself, but also the immediate world around you.  This concept of “constant and never ending improvement” is the ultimate purpose of Choong-Sil Kwon. 

So last year we had around 35-40 for the lock in... for 2011 we had 55 kids from ages 3 and up.  I always say it cannot be better, but this was the best one yet!  We had a blast.  At the end of 2011 Mr. Taylor handed out everyone T-shirts that were at the lock in, including the brave parents and instructors  that stayed with us and helped.  If you loved it, we are doing it again this year, and if you missed it look at how long you can plan for it this year.. Parents and instructors after you commit the first year you are stuck!  There is a photo or two on facebook showing everyone.  Where are the photos from the last two years... that girl was out having fun with the kids!  Below are photos from the 2010 Lock In, Enjoy!  

Attention all kids 12 and under: Come to our kids class on Wednesday nights at 5:00pm and see how much fun we have. Each week is a different night of fun.  This class is lead by our junior instructors and you cannot believe how great they do until you have been there!  Above are some pictures of a recent kids class.  All belt ranks of 12 and under can come in and work out.
