This July, the East Cobb CKD team turned up the intensity with another powerful Instructor Training session that brought energy, precision, and leadership to the mat.
From the very first bow-in, our instructors led with purpose. The training focused on refining fundamentals, mastering self-defense drills, and sharpening striking techniques—especially under pressure. The red training bags took a beating as students practiced dynamic pad work with speed, power, and control. Instructors emphasized not just what to teach, but how to teach—building confidence in communication, correction, and demonstration.
The collaborative energy in the room was unmistakable. From junior instructors learning to command the floor to seasoned leaders fine-tuning their techniques, everyone pushed each other to rise to the next level. It wasn’t just about kicks and punches—it was about responsibility, focus, and living the martial artist mindset.
Big shoutout to our black belts and mentors for leading by example, and to every student who showed up ready to sweat, grow, and inspire.
Stay sharp, stay humble, and see you at the next Instructor Training!
