A Friendly Reminder-Focus on the Martial Artists on the Mat

We love that our Taekwondo school facilitates many positive interactions on and off the mat.  We love to see parents supporting their own children and growing to know and love the other children and their family members who inhabit the benches around them.  And we love that families bring their other children to the dojang to partake of the atmosphere.  

We do, however, need to remind everyone that our focus when in the Dojang still needs to be on the individuals who are working hard to learn new skills and grow on the mat.  Please keep your conversations at a whisper during class. The many talking voices create a roar that makes it hard for the teacher to be heard.  And please keep children who are off the mat quiet and in check so they are not drawing attention from those who are here to work.  We thank you and know that we all have the same goals-encouraging our kids to be their best possible selves.
