At Arrowhead Martial Arts Academy we teach the art of transforming lives through the venue of martial arts. Through our “Six Tasks†Character Development Program, our students are taken on a journey to change their behavior outside the academy, as well as, inside. Since our foundation starts with respect, every student is sent on a mission to record 50 acts of kindness, courtesy and respect. These acts are recorded in their respect journal, two a day, until they have completed 50. Since it takes 21 days to make a new habit, upon completion of this journal, our students have now become aware of what it means to be respectful. By taking action, they have learned by doing; which earns them their first badge--respect. Respect is the first of six journals to be completed--teamwork, self-discipline, perseverance, leadership and knowledge are to follow.
