July 4th is the Fourth of July Parade. If you would like to march with us, please go to the Half Moon Bay Library at 11:00 AM in full uniform. This event is worth a spirit point!
July 11th is our next Yoga class, taught by Sheri Jones. It starts at 9:00 AM. Students and relatives of students are all welcome! The fee is $15 for students and $20 for non-students.
July 18th is Interschool Beach Training. Kuk Sool students and instructors from all over California will be coming to Venice Beach to train. If you want to participate, show up in full uniform at 10:30 AM on the beach. We will be bowing in at 11:00 AM. This event is worth a spirit point!
July 25th will be another Yoga class at 9:00 AM.
The Lost & Found will be cleaned out every month. Please check it regularly for clothing, books, socks, or even belts and uniforms.
DBN Brenna has finished 10,000 sword cuts and will now learn jung geum hyung,the sword form. Why 10,000 cuts? The Grandmaster said that in order to be strong enough to do sword form, students have to do 10,000 cuts. Not only does 10,000 cuts build up a student’s arms, it familiarizes him or her with the different cuts used throughout sword form.
Sheri Jones will be teaching a Yoga class Saturday, May 30th in the morning. If you’re looking to become more flexible, rid your body of toxins, or learn how to relax and calm your mind, please come!
Black belt promotions will occur June 5th, during the potluck and demonstration. This is a great opportunity for students to get a Spirit Point, which is required if the student is going to be promoted to the next belt color.
Dragon Camp begins June 15th and goes all the way through June 19th, starting at 9:00 AM and ending 3:00 PM. DBN Sherre England and Thomas Perkins will be the counselors. Sign up for this summer day camp now because space is limited!
Our schedule will not change over Summer Break! We will be open on the same days at the same times. We need more practice!

Hello Students and Parents! I hope you are all having a happy Saint Patrick’s Day!
I know it’s a little late in the game, but here are all the events in March:
March 18th is the due-date for all sponsor sheets for the Break-a-thon/Kick-a-thon!
March 20th (aside from being the first day of Spring) is testing! Since testing is so small, we will be hosting only one session at 5:30 PM. Even if your testing invitation says 7:00 PM, please show up at 5:30 PM!
March 21st is the Break-a-thon/Kick-a-thon! We are starting with breaking at 12:00 PM. At around 1:00-1:30 PM we will start kicking, which will run to 4:00 PM. Remember, you don’t have to do both breaking and kicking and you don’t have to stay the entire time. This year the Break-a-thon/Kick-a-thon will be at the dojahng. We will not be offering food so be sure to eat well before your event. We also advise you bring your own bottle of water.
The sign-up sheet for Pan Moin is now on the front desk; tryouts are in April, not on March 28th as was announced in class. We apologize for the mix-up.
Thank you all and we hope to see you at the Break-a-thon/Kick-a-thon!
