| Getting a Black Belt to me is important because it is a way to spend time with my sons and exhibit leadership to them. I enjoy helping young people get better as people and to develop confidence and leadership skills. It has been a special time for me working with my son Bradley to achieve the rank of Black Belt. It is fun to help him learn how to achieve a difficult, long-term goal at an early age. It has been a great pleasure to work with and get to know all the students at our school. They are excellent examples of what karate is all about. We are all a reflection of Mr. Jones. Mr. Jones is the most consistent person I have ever met. In the four years I have known him, I have been amazed at his self-control and patience. I really believe in his entire program at the school. | ||
