Kyusho Jitsu Certification

Dear Parents & Students,

I will be starting a new Novice Kyusho Certification Course on Saturday October 4th 2008 at 3:00pm. These classes are held monthly at the Windsor School.

If you are interested in enrolling in this course you must act quickly. There is a total of 12 spots available and these are expected to go very fast! Currently there is a lot of interest in Kyusho outside of our school and I will be involved with these groups starting in the New Year. This could limit availablity in the future.

Advance Kyusho classes start in January 2009 also for current graduates.

If you are interested act quickly as the next available opportunity will not be until Fall 2009 at the earliest.

To enroll in this session please respond to this email or call 519-962-9820 no later than Friday October 3rd.

Yours in the arts,

Master Art Mason

School Tournament 2008

Dear Parents & Students:


I have some great news for you! On Saturday November 15th 2008 Art Mason’s Peaceful Warriors’ Martial Arts Institute will be holding its second Invitational Tournament. The event will be held at Talbot Trail School on Ducharme Road. The event will start at 10:00 am sharp! All students should be there by 9:30 for registration.

This incredible event is open to all students from age 4 to age 65 & from White Belt all the way through to Black Belt. We have a division for everyone regardless of rank, experience or age. Tournaments are a great opportunity to show off your skills in a safe and fun environment. As the school Founder and Head Teacher I strongly urge everyone to participate!


What happens at a tournament? There are two primary divisions, one for patterns and the second for sparring. (There is also an advanced weapons division) The divisions are judged by Black Belts from our school as well as some guests from other schools that we include in our circle of friends. There are metals awarded for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners.


How will you know what to do? We will be starting to prepare all our students over the next few weeks for this exciting event. Everyone will be ready! Why attend this tournament? Well, for one thing tournaments are FUN! Also, the experience gained from participation is like coming to 10 classes. You can ask anyone who came to this event last year.


So, I know what your next question is! How do you sign up! With this letter you will receive an application form. Simply return this form with your fee of $45 dollars as soon as possible and you will be ready to go! Parents and family are welcome to come and watch this event as well. There is no admission charge for spectators! This is a great event for the entire family!


I am looking forward to seeing everyone at the competition!
