It was very sad moment to see Academy Tae Kwon Do Instructor Joel Lawrie leave Dubai last month, his hard work with his young students paid huge dividends at the recent summer grading day with all of his students passing their grade.
I know that he wants them all to continue their practice and study in martial arts, since he has recently asked if I would like to take over his students and current venues.
At the moment I am trying to accommodate as many of Instructor Joel's students as possible using his original venues and locations like Angsana Spa in Dubai Marina.
The challenge is that both Instructor Joel and I have classes in different parts of Dubai at the same time making it impossible for me to accommodate everyone.
So to help as many students as I physically can. I have now in conjuctions with E Sports and Gems Education set up five new classes across Dubai on a Saturday starting from 3rd October 2009.

10.00am - 11.00pm / Little Dragons aged 5-8 years old

On a final note I would like to say 'Thank you; to Joel for his support and Recommendation, we all at the Martial Arts Academy wish you well and hope to see you again in Dubai sometime in the very near future.
