New Friday Class
The launch of the combined adult-kids class has been very successful on Friday evenings. Our instructor, Jamie Heller, is going to start a second class at 6:30 that will be a conditioning class. This will be a high intensity class for Adults only. If you are looking to increase your physical conditioning, this would be a great opportunity to do it!

Updates Week Ending 7/25/09
It's been very quiet this month at RKMSF. Summer has diverted many of our students to other activities, vacations, and work events. So I would like to remind everyone of a couple of items:
1. It takes a minimum of 3 children for a kids class and a minimum of two adults for an adult class (plus the instructor) to have a productive class. If we do not have enough students, the students who DO show up will get class credit, however class will not be held.
2. Be on time. If students arrive more than 15 minutes past the start of class and there were not enough students to make the class at the start of class (normally 35 minutes past the hour), class could not be held and that person will not get credit for the class.
3. Do not leave valuables in plain sight in the dressing rooms (i.e. phones, keys, purses, etc...)If you are going to leave valuables in the dressing rooms, please bring a lock so you can lock them in the lockers. Locks are to be removed when you leave for the day. DO NOT LEAVE ITEMS LOCKED IN LOCKERS AT THE SCHOOL OVERNIGHT! Otherwise leave your valuables at home or locked in a safe place (not in plain sight) in your car. RKMSF is not responsible for lost or stolen items.
We have made arrangements (finally) to get RKMSF logos embroidered on uniforms. If you are interested in getting this done please contact Ms. Kris. Remember - white belts do not get embroidery or patches until they reach yellow belt.
Tentative promotion lists will be posted by the 15th of August. If you are moving from white to yellow belt, please make sure your belt fees are paid. See Ms. Kris for details.
Summer graduation is September 25th so make sure you get your classes in early!
I hope everyone is having a great summer!
See you in class!

Summer in Texas...gotta love it!
There aren't any really big announcements this month. There IS however a Legends of Kung Fu World Martial Arts Championship at the Plano Convention Center the weekend of July 17-19. I'm including a link for those who would like information. Spectator tickets range from $15-$30. (www.legendsofkungfu.com) It would be great to get a group together to go up and watch. If you are interested in going up to Plano to watch this, please email me and let me know.
If you have not already paid your tuition, it is now due. Please see Ms. Kris if you need to make arrangements.
Everyone have a great week!

Updates Week Ending 7/4/09
Today is the beginning of the Summer quarter! Thank you to all who came to graduation on Saturday. We had a very small crowd but there were some really good demonstrations.
We have some scheduling changes you need to be aware of:
SNAP - There will be no SNAP classes during the month of July as many of the students have scheduling conflicts for this month. SNAP classes will resume on Wednesday August 5th.
Wednesday Adult Advanced classes will be held at their normal times.
July 4th Weekend - RKMSF will be CLOSED on Friday July 3rd in observance of the holiday. We WILL be OPEN on Saturday July 4th and running a normal schedule.
Tuition is due Wednesday July 1st.
We will be starting a new form this Saturday! Focus for this quarter is going to shift back to basics. Breathing, footwork, targeting and smoothness. These are the very foundations for which everything we do is built upon. So look for exercises that focus on stance work, targeting and smoothness over the next several months.
Have a great week! See you in class!

Updates Week Ending 6/20/09
OK...who turned up the heat?! Whew! It may not officially be summer in Texas until the 21st, but it sure feels like it. And since it is so warm and humid, we are allowing what we affectionately refer to as "summer" uniforms. All students are welcome to wear a T-Shirt (Preferably a KFSS T-Shirt -no tank tops please) and their gi pants with their belt. It does help to keep you cooler, but watch out for the rug burns! Of course you are welcome to continue to wear your gi if you wish to.
There is an update attendance and promotions list in the lobby. If you moving from white to yellow OR brown to black belt, your belt fees are due by June 23rd. If you are receiving a black belt degree, your fee is also due by the 23rd.
Please check the list to verify attendance and promotions!
Kids Movie Night on Friday was cancelled due to weather and low attendance. We will reschedule closer to the end of the summer when our kids return from vacations.
The Thursday night and Friday night 5:30 combined Adult/Kid Class is going well. This is basically two classes in one. Kids work with Kids and Adults with Adults. So if you are an adult without a kid, you are welcome and if you are a kid without an adult, you are welcome too! We already have two parents who have signed up and are learning along with their kids!
There will be NO SNAP class this Wednesday! Advanced Adult Classes at 6 and 7 are still scheduled.
We have several instructor's who are taking some vacation time, so you may see Master Robert show up as a substitute!
SNAP Graduation is Wednesday June 24th at 5pm.
KFSS Graduation is Saturday June 27th. Please come and support your fellow students. Doors will open at 8:30, Graduation will start at 9:30.
Its going to be a HOT week. Remember to drink plenty of liquids during your work outs. Everyone have a great week!
