Personal Essay for 1st dan Testing

       By Joseph Jenkins (Feb. 10, 2013)

            Dear Friends,

A sound mind in a sound body.  The motto of Yu’s Academy.  Martial art is a physical activity but it is a mental activity as well that demands clarity and focus.  Grandmaster Yu frequently states that if you apply yourself to any task both mentally and physically, you can and will achieve your goals with hard work.  This is very true in all things in life. 

Yu’s Academy is a very good fit for my family because of the discipline and physical nature of martial arts but also for the ethics that are taught there too.  You learn more than how to kick and punch, there are tenets and rules associated with martial arts. These rules and tenets are the same values that we teach in our own home. 

I and my sons have been members of Yu’s Academy for several years.  During our time here, I have seen my boys, Curtis and Brian, improve physically and mentally but more importantly their self confidence has increased.  Their grades in school have improved as well as their social skills.  As a parent, I am always proud of my children but to see them grow and improve in these areas is wonderful.  If you ask either one of them what they like about going to Yu’s Academy, they will simply say that they have fun while they are at class.

The benefits that I have gained are: physical conditioning (cardio, weight control and flexibility), stress relief, maintaining a mental sharpness and the friendship of the other students.  The friendship that you make here will last a lifetime.

The number one thing that sets Yu’s Academy apart is the overall atmosphere there.  Grandmaster Yu is very knowledgeable, caring person that genuinely cares about what he teaches and his students.  Grandmaster Yu’s philosophy is reflected in the Masters, Instructors and Black Belts that assist in all the classes.  I highly recommend Yu’s Academy to anyone wanting to get into shape and learn about the “true” value and meaning of martial arts.
