Congratulations! http://www.imsports.net/News-more-150.html Last night I attended a meeting of business owners regarding the new "Government Stimulus Package" being offered. Everyone was unsettled since recent times had put many us and our peers into uncomfortable situations. We were all looking for answer to problems not unique o us. There was a panel of speakers that each presented about specific material and a few of them had mentioned things, that I believe, would have benefited our members and their families. I have had the idea for some time now to offer certain PREMIERE PROGRAMS to our students that not only go beyond our superior martial arts curriculums, by way of offering specialized and advanced training systems, but also inject the member with information such as personal and business finance education by guest speakers, learning materials such as books and online videos, access to "gurus" on subjects from social training and meditation, personal coaching to leadership training.

The weather has been cold and miserable, but at the school has been warm among its members! I have been noticing that many of our new members have been making it VERY comfortable for their transition into KRU TRAINING by taking their introductory lessons with friends or inviting family to try out our programs right after they join so they can also experience the benefits martial arts and fitness can provide. For those that have not been around this month, PLEASE be reminded that FOR A LIMITED TIME, if you refer a friend to join the school (JANUARY ONLY) you will receive ONE FREE MONTH for EVERY PERSON who registers for our basic year program. To be clear, for example, that means if in January you refer 3 friends and they all register in hte month of January, YOU GET THREE MONTHS FREE! There is no limit. For those that just joined recently, we will give you this offer for 30 days after you registered to give you enough time.   YOU STILL HAVE A CHANCE in February, however  you will get a FREE month after you refer TWO friends to register in that month. So you double your REWARDS if you act now in January. If you need any help in scheduling your friends, please contact the school at 201-387-1811.   **PLEASE NOTE, DO NOT just bring your friends to class! Just like your first time, you m,ust reserve a class IN ADVANCE and guests must arrive on reserved day 30 MINUTES PRIOR to class for trial registration and equipment orientation. http://www.imsports.net/News-more-142.html KRU is happy to host another FREE Women's Self Defense and Empowerment Clinic Saturday January 31 at 2PM at our Bergenfield Location.
