RMAI NEWS UPDATE
Hello, hope you all had a great weekend. It's time for the NEWS UPDATE. Below is some testing information as well as the candidates who are eligible for next week. If you have any questions see Master Celona. Today is VIP class at 4:00. See you there.
SPRING SCHEDULE:
I'm sure you are aware by now we have implemented our new spring schedule. We typically only change our schedule with the changing of the season. We are trying out a schedule with which we split the young gladiators class into two. We have heard some of your concerns regarding the schedule, we are doing our best to accommodate everyone as well as give you all the best instruction possible. The next schedule adjustment is not due until the summer. If attending your regular class is difficult due to the schedule change, let a staff member know, and we will make arrangements for you to attend a different class instead. In the summertime we may elect to revert to the schedule we made a few years ago with the young gladiators being combined again, but with the green belts and above having an extra 15 minutes of focused attention on intermediate rank requirements. That schedule was popular when it was implemented. Let us know your thoughts before the summer gets here.

STUDENT AMBASSADOR CARDS
The highest compliment any student can give to their studio is to tell all their friends about RMAI. For those most dedicated students, referring new people to the studio is something they ‘just do’ all the time. We want to reward those people with a special prize. See Miss. Clark for a small stack of student ambassador cards to give out. If any of your friends sign up for lessons, you get a special gift. We have big things planned for RMAI this summer, and we want everyone to be a part of it.

MARTIAL ARTS PHOTOS by RMAPCO
Unfortunately due to the health of one of Mr. Robertson's long-time employees, he has elected to cancel our photo shoot on May 5th. We will likely find a replacement photographer for this year. Sorry for any inconvenience, but we will do our best to fill our calendar with a competent photographer that can fulfill our needs. We hope this is just a temporary set back for Mr. Robertson, as he has been the industry's top photographer for many many years. When we have a replacement, and a new date we will make an announcement
