 Programs Overview
Teen & Adult Focus
In the course of your study here at the Phoenix Academy, you will be
instructed in the principles of training that are required as a traditional martial artist. These basic principles are to be applied
as you grow and mature in the martial art of Hwa Rang Do®. Your instructors at
the Phoenix Academy are here to help you understand these principles. In
time you will be able to apply these maxims in your continued study of the
traditional martial arts.
SINCERITY IN PRACTICE:
“If one does not practice regularly, then one cannot face the opponent.”
In your study of Hwa Rang Do®, you are required to practice perfecting the
various
techniques so that they become an ingrained habit. This requires you to
have a mental attitude of thoroughness. Exercise, whether it be mental or
physical, must be repeated correctly. It would be a waste of time if you
practiced all that you have learned in an incorrect manner. The time you
spend inside the academy is precious because of the limited time you have
with your instructors. The perfection of your techniques requires that
they become “second nature” and reflexive. If you have to think of your
response, it is already too late. Think of your self as a rough stone when
you enter the academy. After a while, you start to become smooth and
polished. You are like a diamond in the rough. If not polished, no one
will see its inner beauty. The training in the martial arts is much the
same. This is why you must have SINCERITY IN PRACTICE.

Children’s Class Focus
Here at the Phoenix Academy, you will be instructed in various types of
self-defense techniques that will require you to have a sense of respect
for the
things your instructors are showing you. You must have a proper attitude
towards your fellow students and instructors, not only while you are here at the
Phoenix Academy, but also when you are outside the training hall. I know
that the “culture” of a Korean Martial Art is quite different from
your daily life
at home or school, but with common sense and the help of your instructors,
you will begin to understand and appreciate your newfound respect for the
Martial Art of Tae Soo Do®/Hwa Rang Do® and the Phoenix Academy.
