Jersey Animal Coalition - An Animal Shelter With H.E.A.R.T.

H.E.A.R.T. Martial Arts and Citizen Schools students picked the JAC as one the organizations to help out. This time we had the team create tug-of-war toys (braided rope) and chew toys (tube socks filled with a soft chew ball and decorated with Cayola nontoxic markers). A special thank you to Yasmeen who took on the role of Film Director and went around the class conducting interviews to capture the teams volunteer efforts for the shelter.

Kihon Sono San - Third Kata - Looking Good!!!!!

H.E.A.R.T. Martial Arts and Citizen Schools students have been practicing the third Kata (Form or Formal Movement Exercise) which will be part of our WOW! performance. Today we had visitors (potential supporters for Citizen Schools) and the students were a bit nervous. I have to say how I am really proud of how all of you stepped up to the challenge and I could feel the difference in your Kias (Shouts) during the Kata. Great job team!
