Tiger-Rock Martial Arts of West Knoxville: Tiger-Rock Academy Newsletter

Good Afternoon,
What a wonderful and beautiful weekend we had, and we are looking forward to an amazing upcoming testing weekend. All students should have the curriculum stripes necessary to be eligible for rank exams. During classes this week, students will be reviewed for the exam process, as well as continuing to have support for those students needing additional help.

Please note: Students without all of their sparring gear this week will not be allowed to train during sparring times.

Please remember to continue to fill our your goal sheets for your goal setting merit badge, as well as turn in report cards to earn their Honor Roll merit badge. Students should also have their teachers fill out the Partners-in-Learning forms located beside the front desk.

As most students continue to prepare for rank exams, many parents and students have asked where they can find the curriculum. Please follow the steps to access your student’s curriculum:

11.) Go to www.WestKnoxTigerRock.com

22.) Click on student resources.

33.) Click on Tiger Cub Curriculum Stripes (ages 3-6), or Youth Curriculum Stripes (ages 6-15), or Adult Curriculum Stripes (ages 16 and up).

44.) The access id for the following groups are as follows:

a. Tiger Cubs =tigercub

b. Youth= youth

c. Adult= adult

55.) The password for all groups is tigerrock. ***Be careful of autocorrect***

Here are a few reminders for the rank exam process:

11.) Students should be dressed in complete uniform (White Jacket, Red TKD undershirt, Black Tiger-Rock pants, belt, and sparring gear).

22.) The uniform should be clean, pressed, and presentable.

33.) The belt should hang equally, and have the curriculum stripes on the right, and merit badges and starts on the left.

44.) All students should arrive at least 15 minutes prior to their start time.
