RKS Students in the News
August 11, 2008
Congratulations to Aaron Russell, a blue belt in karate, and Tyler Schuster, a white belt at our Bolton location. Tyler and Aaron recently competed with the AA Radicals 12-and-under rep team in the Nationals Tournament for Inline Hockey and won Bronze Medals! Their team worked very hard to earn this recognition (and Aaron scored the winning goal!). Tyler and Aaron and their house league team (the Predators) also competed in the final for the house league championships – and won Gold!

Site Tech – Images and Links
August 8, 2008
Throughout the TeamRKS website, we see images such as the cool flyer for Transformers. Pretty small, you say? Cannot read the fine print?
Here’s a tip…..whenever you move your mouse over a link, your cursor, usually in the shape of an arrow, turns to a hand, signifying the presence of a link. With text links, the text itself is of a different color (red text on the TeamRKS website is usually a link…). Similarly, when you move your mouse and cursor over an image or photo, if you get the telltale hand, you know that there is a link there as well. Click on the Transformers image and see what happens!
Some links, both text and image, help you navigate to other areas of the TeamRKS website. Many of the images on our site will link to and display larger versions of the same images. In special cases, where there are multiple photos arranged in a mosaic, clicking on one will bring up a slideshow of all. The TeamRKS Photo Album is one example of this.
When in need, go ahead and click! Remember, when you see a link, there may be useful information just one click away!

Proper Planning Leads to Peak Performance
August 6, 2008
It does not matter whether you are 5 or 55, it is important to always arm yourself with the tools and habits to be the best you can be. People often ask when is the best time to start to create habits for young children or ask, “…am I too old to change my current situation?” The answer is simple, and it is, “You are never too young and certainly never too old.”
To begin planning, often people need a motivator which can be a change of season, a fun challenge or worse, a real life situation of urgency. Back to school is coming and this can be one time for all of us to refocus, reenergize and make change. To begin you need to first Plan Your Work, and then – Work Your Plan. Martial arts have proven for hundreds of years that it can help improve attitude, behaviour, habits and even character. Habits we train are habits we gain, and every day when attending martial arts classes you learn how to create winning habits and attitudes.
Through constant goal setting in small increments you will quickly see new improved results. “Inch by inch is a cinch!” This is the thinking you need to adapt if you are going to grow to the next level. For the younger kids it can be as simple as learning that the element of hard work will lead to strong results. For an adult, realizing that when you put your mind to work you can achieve any goal you desire.
If you are looking for something to jumpstart you or a family member to a new long term success plan, have a look at martial arts, we guarantee it will make a difference.
Have a Great August,
Chris Robinson
