Frederick, MD (ContentDesk) May 13, 2006 -- Students at Bushikai Martial Arts honored their mothers during the month of May by reciting a Mothers Day pledge in the presence of their mothers and classmates. Each student then added his or her signed pledge to a display of all students Mothers Day pledges at the school. Harry Mackenzie, head instructor of Bushikai Martial Arts, said the purpose of this special ceremony was to teach students another one of the many important life lessons they learn in every class. That lesson is always to honor your mother, help her with chores and thank her for allowing you to learn from and enjoy the martial arts, said Mr. Mackenzie.
We also connect this lesson to other lessons about being disciplined and showing respect to others. Were proud of our well-rounded curriculum that teaches our students more than just how to kick and punch, as important as these lessons are for physical fitness and self-defense.According to Mr. Mackenzie, the ceremonial aspect of this event and the recitation of the pledge by each student directly to his or her mother is another important lesson. Children learn the self-confidence to speak in front of an audience and express themselves in genuine and sincere terms. The Mothers Day Pledge states: I, _____________________, pledge to my mother that I will always continue my training and learn to be a leader: do my chores and help my family make our home a great place to live; study hard and be the best student possible; and be disciplined and show respect to others.
