This is the second of a series of 3 articles about our coming Summer Camp on June 12, 2015.
The planning team works hard to craft a schedule with some of the best instructors in our style. Our camp instructors want to help you and are excited to share their knowledge and experience with you. Our instructors plan ahead and prepare to teach, so please remember to thank each of your instructors this Summer Camp because we could not hold such excellent events without their dedication and support.
Many of our instructors cross train and have a lot of skills to share with you outside of our traditional Yoshukai curriculum that will help you augment your training. Our goal in offering these non-traditional classes is to expose you to other areas of study that may help your Yoshukai skills, for example when designing self-defense routines or combinations.

You’ll notice that the majority of our camp instructors are certified WYKKO instructors, many of whom have their own schools and/or are fourth degree black belts or higher. Camp instructors who are not official WYKKO instructors get to teach at our camps because they have been recommended by other instructors and have extensive teaching experience in their own dojo. If you are a black belt and are interested in teaching a class at one of our camps, please email or talk to any of the organizers.
Finally, every summer camp, we’ve asked you to complete course and instructor evaluations. We want to take a moment to thank you so much for doing that. We take them seriously and the information you’ve given us in the past is a large part of what determines what classes we’ll offer in the future. That said, as wildly popular as they may have been, you won’t see some classes (like environmental fighting or weapons disarming) offered every year. But absence makes the heart grow fonder, and you’ll surely see them offered again in 2016. We’re always looking for new classes to offer, so if you have any ideas (no matter what your rank is), please contact me. We appreciate any feedback that we receive from participants, parents, guests, and our instructors, as that is what ensures that each camp is better and better than the last.
We hope that you are as excited as we are to attend this year’s Summer Camp, and we can’t wait to see you all there.
