Martial Arts Classes in Evansville and Mount Vernon Indiana

Updates and Schedules

June 29th, 2009 | Author: Master Barnes

Just wanted to give everyone an update to our schedule this week being a Holiday weekend.

Tae Kwon Do Classes are cancelled this week and next while Grandmaster Barnes is on vacation.

Mt. Vernon Kung Fu and MMA classes will be cancelled from Wednesday on through the holiday weekend as Master Barnes is taking vacation as well.

Evansville Kung Fu and MMA classes will be cancelled this holiday weekend as Sifu DeRudder is taking the weekend off.

There have been several questions about testing and when it will happen for the Kung Fu classes…

I have decided to push it back a couple of weeks to ensure that everyone is ready to test. This gives the instructors and myself ample time with each student to assess their training needs and make sure they are ready to test.

More than likely we will have our testing on July 18th with a Free Women’s Self Defense Seminar to Follow at 3:00 PM.

I figured I would leave you with some 4th of July / Independence Day Celebration Safety Tips:

A responsible adult should supervise all fireworks activities.
Never give fireworks to young children.
Always purchase fireworks from reliable sources.
Follow label directions carefully.
Never point or throw fireworks at another person.
Use fireworks outdoors in a clear area away from buildings and vehicles.
Never carry fireworks in your pocket or shoot them in metal or glass containers.
Light them one at a time then move back quickly.
Don’t experiment with homemade fireworks.
Observe local laws and use common sense.
Sparklers, fountains and other items that many states allow for use by consumers are not appropriate when a large crowd is present.
If attending a community display, leave your own fireworks at home — there will be plenty of excitement provided by the display.
