Whenever I teach children, I remember how I learned
the art of Kendo back when I was beginning...and
I always take the time to make it fun and interest
the students to want to learn more.
Simply demonstrating the techniques and asking for repetition is boring, but when you take the time to explain why moves are executed and the stories behind them, it makes the forms and katas come to life. My goal in teaching is to help the students achieve the best possible results from their training. And not only in the Martial Arts, but also in their growing self-confidence and inner strength as well. A Bit About Sensei Ryan Crosby: I feel that the Martial Arts can give everyone, children and adults alike, increased personal strength and character. Because of that, I enjoy showing new and old students alike what they can achieve through mastery of particular forms and actions. Today's society gives kids problems and worries that earlier generations might not have had. But when you give them the gift of Martial Arts, you're helping them by providing tools they can use for the rest of their life. I try to have that come out in every lesson I teach.
