Fortunato Karate Testing Tips!

The Polite Greeting: 

"Hi, how are you today Sir or Ma'am?"

3 Rules of Focus: 

Focus you eyes, focus your mind, focus your body.

C.A.N.I.: 

Constant And Neverending Improvement.

This is the concept that we are always working to improve upon ourselves. Martial Arts is not about one day reaching a point where we 'know it all'. Each and every day we should do our personal best to grow, learn, change and develop into better martial artists and productive citizens in society. This also helps us to focus on what we can be doing rather than speding our time focusing on what others should be doing.

The Martial Art Oath:

Each day I will live by honoring my parents, practicing to the best of my ability, staying away from drugs and alcohol and by having courtest and respect for everyone I meet.

The Black Belt Success Cycle:

Know what you want.

Have a plan...and a success coach.

Take consistent action.

Review your progress and renew your goals.

The Student Creed:

In intend to develop myself in a positive manner and avoid anything that could reduce my mental growth or my phsical health.

I intend to develop self discipline in order to bring out the best in myself and others.

I intend to use what I learn in class constructively and defensively to help myself and my fellow human being and never to be abusive or offensive.
