Eagle AMP cannot guarantee class schedules, but will try to compensate for any changes with a program as equivalent in quality as possible.

Complimentary workshops
Bag and Focus-Glove TrainingMost of our Martial Arts training is spent working together. Therefore, we concentrate on our control and efforts that focus more on point sparring and situational re-creation, rather than throwing kicks and punches packed with power. This workshop is intended to build power, strengthen target tracking, and advancing and retreating techniques. Students will also develop distance perceptions, enabling students to judge more accurately where they need to be in relation to a target to get the most out of their kicks and punches with out jamming themselves up or missing altogether. Students will also begin to fine tune timing reflexes and accuracy.
Competition Preparation
Competition can be a stressful undertaking. One of the best things we can do for ourselves as martial artists and students is to compete. We learn a lot about ourselves as well as others in the competition ring. By learning to become comfortable quick thinkers in competition, we gain valuable skills that can later help us not only in school and the martial arts, but in the work arena and beyond. This workshop will help students prepare their techniques as well as their minds to enter the ring with confidence. We will end our sessions with an open tournament!
Beginning Wrestling
To compliment the martial arts and bring our students a wonderful skill, Eagle AMP is offering a beginning wrestling workshop this summer. These weekly sessions will lay the ground work for students to begin to enjoy a wonderful sport that both young ladies and young men may continue and one day use to compete in through out high school, or even a future in MMA.
Beginning Yoga
Yoga is a great compliment to the martial arts because it enhances strength , flexibility, and equanimity in a fun and calming atmosphere. Students will learn breathing techniques, which helps focus their power to deal with stressful situations (such as tests, competitions, and conflicts) The class also consist of basic yoga postures and body awareness.
Korean Ki Gong"Ki" means life energy and "Gong" represents study and practice. The World Ki Gong Club was formed by Grand Master Shin of the World tang Soo Do Association to study and practice this ancient Korean form of health and vitality. Just as the Um/Yang represents a balance between opposites Ki Gong is the natural balance to our study of tang Soo Do. It incorporates low impact soothing movements and music to offset the high-energy hard style of karate.

1 With Nature
"The ultimate goal of Tang Soo Do is to become one with nature"
This year Eagle AMP is continuing an awesome program to help show our students how to form a brighter tomorrow by empowering today's actions. Making the world a better place begins with little things we do every day. We will be studying healthy lifestyle habits, and greener living through science math language arts, art and social studies. Of course the kids wont know they're doing all that, they will just think their having fun! We will look at energy, global warming, clothing, recycling etc.
This summer will begin with a trip to The Discovery Center for "Down the Drain" a wonderful intro to our watershed. We hope to continue this line of education through the program that Stewards of the Coast and Redwoods has to offer.
The naturalists at The Discovery Center will also host us for a tour of their campus, "Rockin & Recycling" at Foothill Park, and "Weather or Not" at Spring Lake.
The naturalists from Stewards of the Coast and redwoods Will be guiding Eagle AMP on our tour of Armstrong Redwoods and The Tide Pools as well.
We will visit the more delicate side of Sonoma County at Hallberg Butterfly Gardens on August 5th.
