An Open Letter to Parents

Dear Parent,

We want to make your children’s experience with Kinney Karate positive and productive. We encourage your involvement whenever possible. We will keep you informed of your children’s progress as we physically strengthen and challenge them mentally.

Our unique program of work and fun is designed to build character, self-esteem, sincerity, respect, self-control and discipline. The structure of our classes will probably improve your child’s performance in all other sports, as well as study habits.

As students move into our intermediate and advanced training programs we begin to place more emphasis on difficult skills that stretch the mind and body. The child now faces new challenges and development. Now more work is required for rank promotion and progress seems slower. It is not uncommon for young students to become temporarily discouraged. It is up to us as parents
and instructors to make the difference between a child who meets and overcomes challenges, and one who merely gives up. Your encouragement of your child’s efforts takes on a new significance during this formative time.

Young people need to have realistic goals that mean something to them. They also need our support and motivation to achieve these goals. Now is the perfect time for you and your child to establish attainable goals. With your help, Kinney Karate can maximize the benefits of your child’s Karate training. We will be happy to meet with you to share our experiences for getting great results with realistic goal setting. Please feel free to request a consultation at your convenience.

We are proud of our 40-year commitment to youth. We continue to make a difference in tomorrows adults.

Should you, at any time, have questions concerning your child’s progress, please feel free to contact us.

Sincerely,

Michael Kinney and the staff of Kinney Karate
