Belt Promotions: No testing has been held since February 6th. Wayne
Krysowaty is preparing for his black belt test. Right now
tentatively I'm looking at Tuesday May 8th, 2007 for the next
testing date. With the TKD tournament coming up May 5th I thought
it would be wise to hold off on testing until after the tournament.

Business: Please have monthly dues paid by April 10th. A few of you
still owe dues for March. Please pay ASAP so I can settle the dojo's
final bills. Just a reminder that the monthly fee is $50 per person
or a family rate of $75 month for two people.

Schedule: I will be gone April 3rd & 4th for a Street Survival
seminar. It's designed for law enforcement and will cover various
aspects of defensive tactics and officer safety issues. Thus there
will be NO CLASS Tuesday April 3rd. Instead we will have class
Thursday April 5th at 7 PM.

Upcoming Events: May 5th there will be the annual International
Taekwondo Tournament in Clark, SD. Competitors come from as far away
as Canada, Mexico, and Puerto Rico to compete. This is a big
tournament and it's sponsored by Master Sanchez of Clark TKD. I plan
on going and hope many of you will compete. We are going to start
getting ready for this tournament so bring your sparring gear to
class.

Dojo: Training has been going okay this last month. Everyone is
making good progress. I had hoped to have more students continue
their training. Class will continue to be held once a week on
Tuesday nights at 7 PM. Again it will be a combined class, all ages
and ranks. The blue mat fits nicely in my living room surprisingly
and that was the main area that we trained on in the old dojo. I
still have a debt of several $1000 to get paid off before I will
even consider looking for a new dojo.

Other: I recommend being a member of our Yahoo Groups webpage:
http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/aberdeenkenpo/ This is the best
way to stay on top of what is going on with the AKKA. There are lots
of photos and good info.
Season 5 of The Ultimate Fighter (TUF 5) begins Thursday April 5th
only on Spike TV. This season will feature lightweights. It's as
real as it gets.
