Word of the Week:
Service
” The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.” – Mahatma Gandhi
When we actively serve people, we grow faster than we would otherwise. There is something about serving that opens our mind, body, and spirit to the possibilities around us and sets us free. By going out of our way to really help others, we are also helping ourselves.

Congrats to everyone who competed in the Wasatch Exhibition! Bring your medals to class & tell what you learned! Also, don’t forget to fill out the Tournament Tracker on Page 32 in your Student Manual!
Taekwondo Student Manuals are at the front desk! Pick yours up today if you haven’t already!
Student Manual Highlight:
On page 39 of your manual there is an “Additional Reading” List with a bunch of books that our instructors and leaders have read that help increase performance and your ability to reach your goals. We encourage all of our teenage & higher students to pick one that looks interesting to them and see if they can use the principles it teaches to become a better version of themselves.
We have Drop-in rates for Afterschool! We have had many students asking if they can go play in the after school program area, but they don’t need school pick up and would only need afterschool sporadically. Thus we created our drop-in program. If you want to try the program you may drop in once before needing to register, though you will need to pay the regular rate at time of drop-in. The Drop-in rates are:
- Annual $50 registration fee
- $10 for one hour
- $20 for the rest of the day (till 6pm)
We also have pre-paid punch passes available for $7/hour and $15/day. These do not include school pick up, but would be usable on an as-needed basis for a great discount!
If you’re interested in this solution, please talk to the front desk and they can get you signed up and ready to go today!
We still have space available in our Pre School & Afterschool Programs. Please spread the word! We have wonderful curriculums and the kids who are in the programs are learning so much and having tons of fun. Please feel free to schedule a tour any time and come see the great things we have to offer!
We have job openings in our Afterschool & Pre School programs! While we still have openings for students, we have grown quite fast and are in need of more people to staff these programs! If you’re interested, enjoy working with kids, and are willing to drive a van, please submit your resume at the front desk or email it to beyondsportsutah@gmail.com. We have both full and part time jobs available. Starting wage ranges from $9-$12/hour.
Pick up your Teacher Packets today! Take your packet to your school teacher and return it filled out to get a treat from the treat bucket! The packet tells your teacher about the Color Belt Testing expectations, gives them a fun poster for their classroom, and lets them sign up for a free class talk if they’re interested.
Please Put your name on your water bottle! We have had a LOT of water bottles left at the studio. Please check that you have yours with you before you leave. If your name is on your bottle and you leave it, we will put it in lost and found. If there is no name then it will be thrown away or donated.
We are a NO PEANUTS Facility! We have a number of students who could go into anaphylactic shock if they even smell or touch peanuts, so we ask that you do not bring anything containing peanuts to the studio, and if you handle or eat nuts before you come, please wash your hands. Thank you for helping us keep each other safe!

Note on Close Dates:
Many families go out of town for Holidays & 3 day weekends, which means that if we had class, many students would end up being behind when they got back. To mitigate this problem, we generally follow Alpine School District’s (ASD) Calendar and are closed when students don’t have school. We have worked these breaks into our curriculum schedule, so that students who attend our scheduled classes regularly will cover everything they need in order to test. We publish our close dates for the year in our Yearly Calendar. Please refer to it and plan as many vacations as possible during close dates to help keep interruptions on your path to Black Belt to a minimum.
