COVID-19 has changed us over these past two years. How we communicate, how we work together as a community — it has all changed. It is important to remember that with all the challenges created by COVID-19, there are still the same chronic, ongoing issues plaguing our most vulnerable that have been intensified and complicated by the pandemic.

Kung Fu is much more than just kicking and punching, it has to be. Training in Kung Fu is empowering and what we do with that empowerment is a very important responsibility. Silent River Kung Fu’s Intelligent Curriculum includes several projects that promote compassion and emotional intelligence, empowering us to literally be the change we want to see in the world. Our Break-A-Thon is one such project.

If each student is able to raise $100 by breaking 10 boards in this year’s Break-A-Thon, our non-profit association, the Silent River Benevolent Foundation, will be able to continue to support important charities and initiatives with the funds we raise.

If you have any questions, please ask your Sifu or post them on this thread so everyone can benefit from your query. You can download your own copy of our pledge sheet from Kwoon Talk's Downloads.

Thank you in advance for your active engagement in this project.
