We tested out Harry and Friends Black Belt Principles in one of our facilities and the results have been wonderful.
My instructors LOVE how easy and effective the mat chats are now and the parents LOVE the message Harry gives.
Most important however, is the fact that the students LOVE Harry and his presence in the school (in the form of video, poster and coloring pages) has been great for retention." .....Dave Kovar

"The biggest difference between a student who stays training with me for just a few months and one who stays for years is mainly in the mindset of the parents.
The parent that sees martial arts as just another 'activity' like soccer, baseball or football, rarely keeps their child involved for the long haul.
The first time the child doesn't feel like coming or decides they want to 'try something else', is when the end is near for their martial arts training.
The parent who truly understands what we do and realizes that we have the
potential to change lives will work hand and hand with us to keep their child coming and motivated to continue.
The Harry & Friends Black Belt Principles program is exactly what we need to
accomplish this with young students. The DVDs and colorful weekly posters are the perfect answer to teach life skills to the kids and at the same time help the parents understand what we do is so much more than punching and kicking.
I highly recommend this program for every martial arts school that teaches personal development and life skills training."
