As we go into the festive break I would like to point out some very important dates for your martial arts diary starting on Saturday 2nd January. Both Gems Schools Royal Dubai & Wellington International start back training. Please note this will be a 12 week program. The cost is AED 650/- and will include examination / grading, we know the Saturday classes are very popular and new students have already joined through the after school sign up events last month. Please pre register a.s.a.p. to avoid disappointment.
********************************************************************
In 2009 the martial arts academy reached just over 200 students, many students have come from other martial arts such as Judo, Karate, Kung Fu & Tae Kwon Do and there are always lots of different uniforms on show in each class, the academy has a new uniform in the works for 2010. Please note, the new uniform is not compulsory, but it is something to consider when you grow out of your old one.
*******************************************************************
There are only two alicated dates for student gradings in 2010. Those dates will be March 9th and October 20th dont forget to continue your practice and study so that you are ready.
