Dear Parent, |
|
I don't blame you. You're thinking, "come on... how can karate and martial arts teach wholesome values - and, success skills?" How can
they instill discipline, confidence and self-esteem in my child? Well, I'm here to tell you, in more ways than you can begin to
imagine.
First of all, let me introduce myself. My name is Ed Samane and have been teaching martial arts for over 17 years. I've worked with
thousands of kids (just like yours!) over the years. At Pro Martial Arts by Grandmaster Samane our instructors have spent many years
devoted to training in the martial arts and have attained a certain level of expertise to be qualified as teachers and also
mentors.
For years, we have been nurturing children like yours with character building tools found only in
karate. No other sport can match them. In the next few pages, I'm going to tell you how you and your child can sample all of this,
and more. Free of charge!!!
Karate lessons at Pro Martial Arts by Grandmaster Samane will benefit your child because we work hand in hand with him or her providing
improved self-discipline, confidence and goal setting skills. Students at Pro Martial Arts by Grandmaster Samane learn that through
dedication and work all worth-while goals are possible. Parents directly attribute their children's improved
grades and attitude to the self-direction and motivation our program provides.
Watch as your child increases in confidence, energy and spirit. Stand and be dazzled as he becomes unstoppable in his quest for...
- Greater academic achievement.
- Unshakable self respect.
- Increased strength and fitness, in both body and mind.
- Fearless self-confidence.
- Awesome self-control.
- Unbeatable self-esteem.
"It is a positive environment with a goal oriented individually paced program."
"Glenn attends the Vanguard School in Paoli, serving children in the Autism Spectrum. His interest in karate developed after
attending a six week Saturday Adventure karate class at school. I was referred to Pro Martial Arts by Grandmaster Samane by another
parent. I thought karate would be good for focus, body awareness and personal development skills. It is a positive environment with
a goal oriented individually paced program.
The instructors (Mr. Shaffer and Mr. Mental), presence of mutual respect and style of instruction is awesome.
To see each group of kids show pride, respect, admiration, and determination is very rewarding. It is a great socially inclusive
activity. Glenn is doing great and really enjoys it. I'm so glad we found the right place."

And all of it comes while learning how to "kick, block, and punch." Look at it this way. Your child's first and biggest challenge comes not
from "fighting for his rights on the street," or "beating up the neighborhood bully." It comes, instead, from battling overcoming
challenges presented to him.

Kids With Kick |
|
The question is, how do you encourage your child to focus on the positive aspects of his personality instead of zeroing in on his
insecurities? You can see that your child is struggling; how do you support him?
Well, the good news is, I have a proven solution. A program that has already worked for over 10,000 children. A
series of lessons your child can learn easier than you think.
I call it, "Kids With Kick." Let me tell you it's secret:
To repeat, Martial Arts are less about your child learning to fight others, and more about learning self-mastery. Overcoming
his innermost fears, thus unleashing within himself a powerful, unstoppable force.
A force that gives him the strength to kick down the doors of his own self doubts, A force that opens your child to the exalting power of
values.
In other words, when your child uses the discipline of karate to conquer his fears, he has power to transfer
that discipline to all other areas of his life. I know of no other sport that does this better than karate.
But don't take my word for it...
"We have seen our children improve their ability to make good choices in their behavior..."
"Pro Martial Arts by Grandmaster Samane has provided our children with a tremendous positive attitude in addition to learning the
physical techniques. The monthly and weekly character development points are woven into each class and are taught in a way that
makes them fun for the kids.
We have seen our children improve their ability to make good choices in their behavior and they have developed an ability to focus
on the task at hand and overcome obstacles that might have previously stopped them."

Now, you may be asking, how does all this "values" stuff work? And why does karate manage to do a better job teaching it?
Again, more than any other sport, karate gives your child the chance to explore her innate powers. She'll marvel (as you will) as she
increases in strength, flexibility, endurance, balance, and harmony. Yet this is only the start.
In fact, her physical skills act as a foundation for something much more important: the development of her
value skills, mental and spiritual. And not cut off from her physical skills, but intimately connected - even bonded to them.
Like this:
Courage
Your child finds the courage to move outside of his comfort zone. He wills himself to take on more difficult karate moves and skills. He
becomes no longer afraid of being afraid.
As he does so, he learns that whatever he sows, so he reaps. He learns to take responsibility for his actions. He suddenly sees his life
as a constant, never-ending journey of life-giving improvement.
In short, with a deep breath, he refuses to become a victim of fate. He puts an arm lock on his own destiny.
"The other aspect of the program that is important to me as a parent is the constructive emphasis on building character..."
"After almost 2 years my 11 year old daughter has continued to maintain her enthusiasm and commitment to Pro Martial Arts by
Grandmaster Samane Tang Soo Do classes. It has been amazing to see how much my daughter has learned and how determined she is to
get her black belt. I am impressed as to how the program is structured to really encourage the children to participate in a highly
organized group while at the same time getting individualized attention on what they specifically need to work on. In my opinion
the incentives for the children to learn (stripes on belts and the criteria for graduating to the different belt levels) are
intelligently set up to be progressively more challenging but not overwhelming.
The other aspect of the program that is important to me as a parent is the constructive emphasis on building character that
complements learning of the various Tang Soo Do forms. I am a Ph.D. psychologist who often works with children and I feel strongly
that Grandmaster Samane and his staff have really created a healthy environment where good things are happening."

Staying Power
At Pro Martial Arts by Grandmaster Samane we will help your child set positive goals. It is important for each child to learn to set short
term, intermediate and long term goals. Here every child's goal is the Black Belt. A Black Belt is a symbol of excellence in Martial Arts.
It is an important tool for instructors and parents to use in developing desire, tenacity and teaching the importance of following through
in any activity we pursue.
As your child's training progresses, your child finds joy in improving her physical stamina. She can walk farther, run longer, practice
skills until she gets them right.
In turn, she learns not to give up. She sticks things out. With the help of her teachers, she strives harder, longer to reach her goals.
Even if she fails she perseveres. She won't let her self doubts get in the way of finding ultimate solutions.
"Where performance is measured, performance improves." Yet, your child has to first accept where he stands now. That means measuring
current strengths. Above all, he learns that to succeed, he can't fool anyone, especially himself.
This results in a keener focus. He learns to make eye contact with his teacher (and not just in karate.) He pays greater attention to what
each teacher says. He knows and accepts where he stands.
"... equal emphasis on self-defense skills and strategies, on the one hand, and character-building, on the other hand."
"Having trained in TAE KWON DO karate and earned a Black Belt ten years ago, last year I resumed training at Pro Martial Arts
by Grandmaster Samane's TANG SOO DO School in Berwyn, along with my twelve-year-old daughter. As a kindergarten teacher, I am
impressed by the highly professional approach and respectful attitude of the training staff, and by the equal emphasis on
self-defense skills and strategies, on the one hand, and character-building, on the other hand.
Grandmaster Samane's philosophy and the purpose of his school's is optimal self-development: physically, mentally, and
emotionally. I have discovered another important benefit, that being in training with my daughter is a wonderful way to strengthen
our relationship."

These are just three of the powerful, energizing values your child will get from the "Kids with Kick" program. In short, you can look
forward to your child developing:
- Powerful Self-Control: She'll refuse to give in to negative peer pressure. She'll have deeper respect for rules.
- Improved Focus: She'll learn what's needed, along with the skill to "zero in" on critical tasks at hand. Normal, yet
time-wasting, childhood distractions won't get in her way.
- Fearless Self-Confidence: Watch as your child finds the courage to open any door life has to offer.
"The martial arts classes at Pro Martial Arts by Grandmaster Samane have instilled confidence, discipline, and respect for one's self and others."
"Tiffany and Ryan Villanueva have known Master Barnes since 2003. Tiffany started taking classes when she was seven years old and
Ryan started when he turned three years old. The martial arts classes at Master Samane's have instilled confidence, discipline,
and respect for one's self and others.
Tiffany and Ryan also learned how to set goals and achieve them. Through the guidance and instruction of Master Barnes and
staff, Tiffany and Ryan have developed wonderfully as individuals. It definitely has been a positive experience."

Academic Excellence
Pro Martial Arts by Grandmaster Samane promotes academic excellence in your child. All young people in the program are required to
demonstrate that they are doing their best at school prior to receiving their belts. Achieving a Black Belt demonstrates important
character traits such as self-discipline and persistence. Students who achieve their Black Belt make sure to mention it on their
college applications.
Towering Role-Model Teachers
As you might guess, all of this couldn't have happened unless I had the very best teachers. To make sure I have the very best each of
them have years of experience in my system and have been thoroughly trained in teaching skills. Today, they are all martial arts
experts - advanced Black Belts, in fact. Many have won awards for their teaching and physical skills.
"He has developed incredible strength, determination and focus through practicing karate."
"My 5 year old son, Zachary, began karate at Pro Martial Arts by Grandmaster Samane in April 2007. We had heard about it through
a friend and decided to try it out. He instantly loved it, and has developed incredible strength, determination and focus
through practicing karate.
My 3 year old, Sammy, just began in June and is able to focus and follow along for the whole class! The instructors are
wonderful. Both boys are thriving and have a confidence they never had before. We look forward to many years of practicing
karate at Pro Martial Arts! Thanks!"

"We were immediately struck with how all encompassing the instruction was."
"After our kids asked for several months to try karate, we finally gave in and decided to give Pro Martial Arts by Grandmaster
Samane a try. We were immediately struck with how all encompassing the instruction was. Besides karate, the kids were being
reminded how to be great people.
Many of the lessons we were teaching our kids at home were being taught here as well: respect, good manners, attitude, kindness,
generosity etc. It was a natural compliment.
The kids picked up on it as well. Through the testing for higher belts, they've been exposed to testing environments where they
are asked to demonstrate the knowledge they've accumulated in class, in a friendly yet formal environment.
Over the past 2 years, we've seen the confidence level, and maturity level of the kids grow in leaps and bounds. We've been
complimented by their teachers, and by other parents about many good choices they make when confronted with conflict or
opportunities to be helpful."

How It Works
Watch with your own eyes as your child gets coached by a top karate teacher.
Class One
Class one at the karate school begins with your child learning the profound influence of the martial arts "bow". Then watch as he:
- Warms to the idea of emotional respect, for both himself and others.
- Gains power from the ability to be confident yet respectful.
- Connects with the "Three Skills of Listening."
Then glow as you hear him recite the first principle of the Student Creed: "I intend to develop myself in a positive manner, and
avoid anything that would reduce my mental growth or my physical health."
Class Two
Class Two at the karate school involves more bows. Then watch as your child:
- Gains super confidence with the "Three primary techniques of all martial arts systems," and builds rapport with
a SUPER ROLE MODEL Black Belt instructor.
Finally, stand and cheer as your child learns another Student Creed: "I achieve my fullest potential in developing knowledge,
honesty, and strength."
Believe me, in three lessons, your child will come away with her self-confidence greatly improved. Not just in how she feels. She'll
actually end up with real "Life Skills". Skills that she can put to powerful use right now, today.
All while enjoying the fun and excitement of an upbeat martial arts program.
To register for the free introductory program, pick up the phone and call:
610-722-9690
We'll answer any additional questions that you may have and schedule a special time with our head instructor to work with you and your
child.
Please act quickly because these classes fill up fast - and we are committed to maintaining a small student-teacher ratio in our
beginner's classes.
Whatever you do, I urge you to register today.
Believe me,
"Karate is the best thing you can do for your child!"
BUT BE WARNED. Remember, I'm inviting you to check out one of the most successful martial arts programs in the country! Call as soon as
possible. Our programs FILL-UP FAST! Register early to ensure your spot.
Don't worry! It is consistently stressed to all students that karate skills require them never to be abusive or offensive and are
only for use defensively. After a short period of time students become markedly less aggressive while maintaining confidence and
high personal self-esteem.
Thank you for your time and I hope to meet you at my school.
Sincerely,
Grandmaster Ed Samane
7th Degree Black Belt
