November is a busy month at Shin's.  There are several events to put on your calenders.  These events include belt test, XMA demonstrations, black belt ceremony, charity fund raiser and so much more!!!  

Hello Parents and Students,

This Friday and Saturday (11th and 12th) Shin’s will be closed in observance of Veteran’s Day.  We will be open again on Monday 14th as normal.  If you’d like to practice Tae Kwon Do, here is a workout you can do at home:

-20 minute warm up and stretch

-stretch kicks - 2x10 each leg (alternate legs per set), 20 push ups/20 sit ups

-outside crescent - 2x10 each leg (alternate legs per set), 20 push ups/20 sit ups

-front snap - 2x10 each leg (alternate legs per set), 20 push ups/20 sit ups

-round house - 2x10 each leg (alternate legs per set), 20 push ups/20 sit ups

-optional - double front and double round - 2x10 (alternate legs per set), 20 push ups/20 sit ups

-conditioning - 50 push ups, 50 lemon squeezers, 50 skydivers, 50 squats, 50 burpees

*Take all five exercises and do a giant set.  Whatever number of sets and reps you come up with, go from one exercise to the next and continue until finished. For example:  5x10 for each exercise so do for your first round 10 push ups, 10 lemon squeezers, 10 skydivers, 10 squats, 10 burpees and then repeat four more times in that order.  Have fun!

On Friday 18th, Shin’s will be having belt testing starting at 5PM.  If you or your child receives an invitation, please make sure to sign up through the office by the date written on your invite.  Please have your current belt color and size information available.

 For testing, the Shin’s XMA Performance Team and Pre Team will be performing for you.  They will perform right after the first testing group if you would like to come and watch. 

 Also, after the performance, we will be having our black belt ceremony.  Feel free to come and watch our newest students join our family of black belts. 

 On Saturday 19th, Shin’s will be participating in O.L.P.H.’s second annual 5K Fun Run which raises money to support the school.  We participated last year which went very successfully for the school.  Shin’s will have a booth their so feel free to come by and say hi.  After the race, our XMA Performance Team will be putting on a demo for everyone.  Come on out and show your support for Shin’s as we kick and flip our way around.  Shin’s will be opened for normal hours that day.

And last but not least, Thanksgiving will be here soon.  Shin’s will be closed during the holiday from Wednesday 23rd-27th.  We will reopen as normal on Monday 28th.  So please be aware of these dates as well as the dates listed above for Veteran’s Day. 

For this holiday, should you want to practice Tae Kwon Do, repeat the above workout as you combine it with your Thanksgiving traditions!
