Students are working away on crafts.A young girl by the name of Jackie came up to me and asked if she could lead the next Project-Based Leadership Project. I am always inspired and in awe when young martial arts students show the initiative to step up and do things that kids twice their age often don't even do. And as a martial arts instructor that strives to teach students how to take their skills out of the dojang and put them to good use in the world, I am thrilled when that initiative to help others is shown.
Tae Kwon Do Brothers This week for our Leadership Hour at Johnson's TaeKwonDo Academy of Cary, our young students will be decorating cards for the Carolina House retirement home. See, each week, Johnson's TaeKwonDo has its leadership hour where students lead or assist the project manager on their own project-based leadership projects. Students will deliver the cards to the residents in the near future and will perform demonstrations for them. Too cute! Whenever we can get 7 year olds to step up in their communities, we can assess what we are doing as adults to help others in our communities. I hope that Jackie keeps up the good work in her martial arts training. Just imagine at 16 what she can accomplish!!! I can't wait. I will be there to help her reach her goals.
Excited about learning leadership!That is why Johnson's TaekwonDo Academy is so much more than just your local karate school in cary, nc!
