Local Personal Development Center Focuses on Building the Dignity of our Town in December!

“Dignity inspires action. When we teach children that each person matters and makes a difference, they do things that matter and make a difference.”-- Dr. Robyn Silverman – Popkin-Brogna Jujitsu’s Child Development Expert

December 2015 is Dignity 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 treating themselves and others like they are all worthy of care and attention. 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:

·         Dignity: What does it mean and what does it look like?

·         Relationships: Connection, acceptance, inclusion, & fairness.

·         Value and strengths: How can we recognize strengths in everyone?

·         Celebrations & uniqueness: Holidays, similarities and differences.

“Dignity, the idea that everyone is born with value and worth, is something that we all have in common. We are all part of a human family and remembering our similarities while honoring our differences can help to connect us all.” says Dr. Robyn Silverman, Popkin-Brogna’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, "Dignity is truly one of the most valuable human rights.  The fact that we get to help our members understand the importance of how they treat themselves and others, will change their lives forever.”  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 Dignity month is going to help us to do just that.”

Popkin Brogna’s strong martial arts 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.
