Special Winning Attitude Team “SWAT”

Leadership Development

One of life’s most valuable inheritances is the gift of mentoring. At White Tiger Karate, we believe that it is important for all people to help those around them to gain new skills and to use these skills to better our relationships and community. Leadership is one of the many skills we strive to cultivate in our program. As each student grows in their martial arts abilities, they are encouraged to help other students in their training, typically during class time. For those students who demonstrate a high level of personal integrity, a strong commitment to their own training, good character, and the desire to teach others, we offer an opportunity to be a part of SWAT, the SPECIAL WINNING ATTITUDE TEAM.

SWAT members participate in special training sessions where they learn how to effectively teach other’s, practice routines used at demonstrations, and learn advanced techniques. SWAT members volunteer their time to help teach classes, thus giving them application time for their newly acquired teaching skills. As a SWAT member, each person of the group is called to a higher level of integrity as they are also role models for younger or less experienced students.
