- Intern Training -
|
Following the history and traditions of Moo Doe (martial arts), a person's qualifications come from their knowledge, skill and ability. This program teaches the skills needed to become an instructor. |
Physically and mentally, interns gain a better understanding of movements and how to teach these movements to people of all ages, with different body types and abilities.
At the same time, interns gain a better understanding of themselves and what they are teaching by going through the process of learning at a highly intensive level. |

"I had been handling children's lessons before beginning the program and soon realized that there was much more to know about the form and movement than I thought. After joining the program, I began learning not only more form and higher corrections, but also more of the principles behind how to teach and how the curriculum is structured... With this level of training, I feel that I have sped up the rate of my personal development severalfold." ~Assistant Instructor Rob Nahf |

"People are always looking for ways to improve. The intern training has taught me about myself. I have learned the importance of having a balance between the different parts of my life. I have found that my ability to focus has also increased. Perhaps the greatest lesson I learned was the importance of working together...[it] also requires a great deal of communication and patience, both of which have improved."" ~ Instructor Matt Cillis |

"The internship program was one of the greatest challenges of my life and, at the same time, one of the most rewarding experiences I've ever had. You begin to see yourself so clearly both mentally and physically. It has strengthened my mind and body to a point I once thought unattainable. And yet, to my amazement I realize it is only the beginning." ~ Instructor Steve Paulhaus |
