The Leadership Team Next Leadership Meeting

August 17th

Sunday 11-1Pm

Leadership training is exactly that, it teaches our student to become role models, leaders, positive examples, assistants to the Instructors, develops confidence, taking initiative, customer service understanding, team work relationships with leadership instructor team, and how to take initiative towards addressing an issue, or developing a creative idea in making you into somebody who can work with and teach anyone. Our Leadership program teaches our students about business and corporate understanding. This class will affect them in school, work, clubs, organizations, along with development of their interpersonal skill development. Once every two months we have a Leadership meeting for two hours, this meeting is preparing for setting up a New Demo Team for Goju Ryu Karate Demonstrations for 2014-2015 to highlight our Karate program, and hopefully bring more new students into our way of Karate-do. We welcome the new Green Belts 3 strips, whose next level is Brown Belt to our Leadership Program. Any questions please call Sensei Gene Tibon at the main dojo at (209) 465-0943.
