Skills Day at Avila was a big hit!
07/16/09
The USAMA Skills Day training at Avila was a big hit. We had approximately 50 students training on the beach. The challenges were fun and training in the ocean is an experience one won't soon forget. Thanks to all those volunteers who helped make the day a success!

NEW! Parent/Student Conferences
09/10/08
We are pleased to announce our next step in our ongoing attempt to improve our communication with our students and their family. Our first attempt was the implementation of the progress reports and it was a step in the right direction but did not satisfy what we had envisioned for quality communication. Our solution is to set up parent/student conferences with Sensei. We will systematically contact each student to try and schedule a private meeting with Sensei to discuss any questions or concerns you may have as well as provide feedback on the student's progression, set goals, etc. If you are at any time interested in scheduling a conference with Sensei, please do not hesitate to contact our office via e-mail or call us at 471-3418.
