Cecilton Elementary Fun & Fitness Day

Last Friday, Mr. Hayhurst was the instructor at Cecilton Elementary who taught 400 kids a martial arts self defense lesson.  He had this to say about it:

The different teams are getting ready on the blacktop

"It was wild, I had 15 minutes to teach about 25 kids at a time a quick martial arts lesson.  The coolest part about it was, since I came to their gym class earlier in the year, they already knew the stuff that I was teaching and I got to teach them a little more.  It was a lot of fun with team challenges and partner drills.  Also, the fastest kid because the "Champion of the Day" and they got to be MY partner when I demonstrated different techniques.  I have to give a lot of credit and respect to the teachers at Cecilton because they are one of the main reasons why the kids there are so well behaved, disciplined, and follow directions really well.  Their attitudes are really positive and they get excited about every activity and always try their best.  That school is definitely impressive."

Martial Arts Instructors from Elkton, Maryland will be teaching at many schools this year in Cecil County.  Mr. Hayhurst was at Cecilton Elementary last Friday and will be at Leeds Elementary Monday, May 16th.
