Adjusted Holiday Schedule

December’s schedule will run like normal with the exception of a half hour demonstration practice each Tuesday and Thursday at 7:00 December 4th-20th (this will push the Sparring Class back to start at 7:30).

When MCPS is out for the Holiday break there will be no regular classes held December 24th– January 1st. 

During this time we will offer 2 classes for our diehards on December 26th and 28th from 4:30-5:30.  All ages and belt levels are welcome to these 2 classes and they are generally a great time to bond with your fellow TKD family members.

Regular classes will resume January 2nd.

Holiday Week Schedule

The week of July 2nd-July 6th we will have an abbreviated schedule.

There will be no classes on Wednesday the 4th.

Classes on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday will be:
White Belt Kids --4:00-4:45

from the desk of Mrs. Rosbarsky

A Slight Schedule Adjustment from July 9th-August 23rd

The Teen and Adult Beginner and Intermediate class will run concurrently with the Advanced class on Monday and Wednesday from 6:15-7:30.

This class structure will give all belt levels an opportunity to develop skills that lay dormant when there are not these diverse teaching and learning experiences available.  Giving more opportunities to share unique perspectives will deepen the teachers and the student involved.

Also on Tuesdays fro the remainder of the summer, Competition Poomsae will be offered from 7:00 to 8:30.  This class will be open to all interested individuals with each class progressing from basic to advanced.   We will explore and hone our basics, develop our own phrasing and find our inner monsters.

Looking closely you will see some changes to the schedule.  On Tuesday and Thursday we have added a new yellow to senior yellow belt class for 4-6 year olds from 445-530.  This class will be for 4-6 year old students who are already in the T and Th 445-545 class and is open to other M and W students who wish to switch.  On Friday you will find a New Flips and Tricks class that will focus on building the fundamentals and developing the skills used in demonstrations like the one we just put on at Southgate Mall.  The first class will be Friday the 13th 645-745. This class is $5 per class or the first one is Free for Black Belt Club members and is open for blue belts and above.


Also on Friday we have changed the format a bit.  All who wish to participate in the Competition Prep classes should attend the 515-645 class.  This class is for all students who know their forms and/or the basics of sparring and wish to progress by polishing and developing their skills for testing, tournaments or just to feel like you are doing your best all the time.

Fall Schedule

This schedule begins September 1st, 2011.  Please keep this copy and use our website for future reference.  Also for reminders of special events, schedule changes and or closures please join our Missoula Taekwondo Center Facebook group or sign up to get text message updates on Twitter (text "follow mtcweb" to 40404 from your cellphone then reply with your first and last name to receive important MTC tweets or sign up on Twitter).  This is particularly helpful when there are class cancellations due to belt tests or MCPS holidays.

Website Calendar and Class Schedule.

Fall tests will be September 23rd and November 11th.  

We will be closed for Holidays September 5th, November 23-25th and December 22nd to January 2nd.  These dates are the same dates Missoula County Public School are closed for holidays (not PIR or conference days.)

Within the new schedule you will find changes to Friday and some detailed descriptions of classes we have had and will continue to have.

Note a General Poomsae Class which will introduce poomsae in a quicker format to cover more of the forms. And the Competition Team classes which focus more on presentation elements of the forms and on sparring.  All of the Competition Team classes will focus on self improvement through striving to attain skills that are only within our reach with a maximal level of effort.

Friday Competition Classes take the place of Poomsae and Sparring

The new Friday format is working out great. We are enjoying it and getting good feedback in the form of comments and through improved performance by participants.

We are currently holding classes for Poomsae and Sparring combined.  White through Senior Green Belts have class 5-6PM on Fridays. Blue to Black Belts are 6-7PM on Fridays.

This new format is to put us all in the right place to advance our skills in Poomsae and Sparring.  If we constantly perform at the same relaxed level without pushing ourselves we will not have the ability to step it up when we are called on for it in Taekwondo and in life.  We strive to make Missoula Taekwondo Center a safe, encouraging environment to put your self “out there” and make huge gains in your taekwondo and  life skills.

Summer Schedule

We hope you all are enjoying your summer.

The few days of sunshine and warmth we have experienced have been glorious and we are excited to see so many students taking advantage of the flexibility we offer in the summer to come to the classes that work with your schedule even if they are not your usual class.

Just a reminder that we will have no classes July 1st and 4th.  Enjoy your Holiday.

*This is a great class for our martial artist and others looking to improve their overall fitness in life or prepare for upcoming goals.

We look forward to a wonderful summer of growth for each of us and for our entire TKD family.

New Classes and Slight Changes

We are so very blessed to have a continually growing MTC family.  Each week we are seeing new faces join us and see others who are honing their skills and progressing.  January is the time of year where we see an influx of new students, so in anticipation we are adding 2 new classes to the Monday and Wednesday schedule.  Mr. Watson will be teaching both new classes: a Beginning class for 7 year old and up from 5:30-6:15 and a Yellow through Senior Green Belt class from 6:15-7:15.  These classes meet in the Red Dojang.

We want to open these up to our current students first, so if either of these classes interest your family please confirm with Mrs. R that you would like to switch by December 15th.  Then we will fill the rest of the openings with new students.

These additions will necessitate another slight shift.  The very popular "At Your Own Pace" class will now be held on Tuesday and Thursday at 5:30 instead of Monday and Thursday.

Summer Scheduling—We remain the same but you don’t have to.

As we near the time when school lets out for the summer, scheduling becomes a little erratic for most families, but we are here to tell you that Taekwondo will remain nearly the same as it has been in the spring and in summers past. 

Monday through Thursday will remain the same. The Friday schedule will be abbreviated to the 4-4:30 White Belt Poomse class and a 4:30-5:30 All Levels Poomse class.

We invite everyone to enjoy a more flexible summer by attending whichever classes work.  That may mean someone who usually attends on Monday and Wednesday as a yellow belt may, in the summer, choose to get their two classes in a particular week both on Wednesday by attending the Yellow Belt Class and the Green Belt Class—or whatever works.  Our goal is to keep the knowledge in our brains, keep our bodies moving, and enjoy every minute of it while allowing for a more flexible summer for all.
 

Mrs. Rosbarsky is happy to help you find what fits and works best for everyone.
