Local Personal Development Center helps West Hempstead and Franklin Square to become more Courteous in August!

“Disrespect locks gates and starts wars; courtesy mends fences and opens doors.” -- Dr. Robyn Silverman Popkin-Brogna Jujitsu’s Child Development Expert

August 2015 is Courtesy Month as part of Popkin-Brogna Jujitsu’s Powerful Words Character Development program! All students will be studying, developing and experiencing powerful life lessons focusing on understanding the importance of showing respect, kindness and consideration for others.  In addition to all of the physical skills that they'll be working on this month, students will be discussing and practicing the following concepts both in and out of class:

·         Courtesy defined: What does courtesy mean & how/where do we show it?
·         Good manners, bad manners: Table, school, our class & out in public
·         Powerful greetings: Powerful GUEST system to meet & greet others
·         Powerful courtesy: Please, excuse me, sorry & helping others through charity
While many typically refer to courtesy as simply a way to be polite, there is more to this powerful word! People who show courtesy are thoughtful and think before they act. Courtesy is not just showing manners, but rather, demonstrating empathy, kindness and respect for others. ” says Dr. Robyn Silverman, Popkin-Brogna Jujitsu's child & adolescent expert, and creator of the Powerful Words Character Development system used at the facility.

Howard Popkin, Sensei of Popkin-Brogna Jujitsu says, "Helping our students / members to become more courteous is so very important to us.  While the physical skills they develop here are great, life skills like showing courtesy to others is truly what will help them to achieve their goals and become more successful in life. I’m confident that this life skill will prove valuable to them, at our academy, in school and of course in “the real world!”  We’re all excited to see the positive impact that this month’s Powerful Words Curriculum has on our students as well as on our entire community.  That’s what it’s all about for us and we take this very seriously.

It’s a pleasure seeing our community recognized as a place with Powerful Character, and seeing our students lead the way! As this community’s premier Powerful Personal Development Center, we take this responsibility very seriously. We’re thrilled to help our students and our community to thrive and succeed, and Courtesy month is going to help us to do just that.”

Popkin-Brogna’s strong curriculum and the Powerful Words Character Development system provide our students with the opportunities to become UNSTOPPABLE in life. These lessons will remain with our students for life and we're honored to help them achieve the success that they deserve” says Popkin.

Howard Popkin, Sensei is the Owner of Popkin-Brogna Jujitsu and has helped thousands of kids, teens, and adults to embrace a positive and healthy lifestyle.
