Testimonial #1
I have been involved in the Martial Arts for many years in several styles of Kung Fu, Tae Kwon Do and Kenpo Karate. In
my early days of training my sensei's taught about brief histories of the Arts but mainly focused on Sport/ Tournament
Fighting.
After learning about AMACP, I took the Certification Course and learned more from Sensei Crary's teachings
than from any other instructor. The course was very historical and the pictorial samples of different punches,
Kicks, blocks and stances were right on the money.
To be an effective Instructor, one must absorb and relay all information
to their students, and AMACP has given Instructors everywhere a valuable tool for any style of teaching.
My students
are already working on Black Belt Speed conditioning and have adapted the meditation portion to their everyday lives.
The
testing for Certified Karate Instructor was challenging but rewarding. I was thrilled to learn the information given
in the course and studied quite hard for the open book type test.
It was NO slam dunk either. This was a test
you must study for IF you want to be certified. One day a student just may ask you one of the questions
in the course and the instructor better be able to answer it correctly.
I am very proud and honored to be associated
with Sensei Crary and the AMACP.
