Kindness Campaign... Kindness Challenge

Here is my challenge that I am putting out ---- I CHALLENGE YOU!

Let's all get involved in the Kindness Challenge and perform three kind deeds per day. For the next ten days, I would like to have all students and instructors of Goshin Karate & Judo Academy perform acts of kindness.

I hope these Acts of Kindness (to friends, family, perfect strangers, people in need and even a few four-legged friends) will swept through Phoenix, Scottsdale and Arizona. "Passed It On"

"I hope what we start right here at Goshin Karate & Judo Academy is only the beginning," Lets see who can Perform, and Log the most acts of kindness. (Start Logging them Now)

The point of my challenge is to see what focusing on kindness does to the person performing them, and also to see what effect doing acts of kindness has on the students and our school. I am just asking for 3 kind deeds that each of us perform everyday. - Thank you. Mr. Boggs

Arizona Children Learn That Kindness is the Ultimate Self Defense

Students at Goshin Karate and Judo Academy in Scottsdale Arizona learned that karate is a lot more than blocks, punches and kicks. They learned that Acts of Kindness can really improve our community.

September 30, 2009 – Phoenix, AZ. – According to local karate instructor Roger Boggs, the martial arts are about a lot more than punches, kicks, and blocks. To help make that point to students at Goshin Karate & Judo Academy next week during National Bullying Prevention Awareness Week, Boggs spend every day teaching them about martial arts philosophy, most specifically about kindness.

“Kindness is, really, the ultimate self-defense,” says Boggs. To make the point clear, Boggs challenged all of the school’s classes to an acts of kindness contest. For 30 days students will be performing and recording acts of kindness; the class that completes the most acts will win a pizza party and prizes.

“It’s not just about kindness, it’s also about the power of little acts and how they can add up to be big accomplishments,” says Roger. “By working together to reach their goal, the students will get a lesson in teamwork as well.”

The program was created by Roger Boggs, chief instructor of Goshin Karate & Judo Academy. Boggs loves the project, but he has his eyes on an even bigger goal. “I’m shooting for a 500,000 acts of kindness in the Phoenix area in the next five years.”

According to Mr. Boggs, the Random Acts of Kindness Challenge started in 2007 and has continued to grow each year. So far, the program has been a catalyst for over 35,000 acts of kindness, most of them completed by his karate students between the ages of 4 and 15 but we have adults too....

“This year, my goal is to expand this program to include our local elementary schools.” says Mr. Boggs. “It will take some time to get the administrators at the Paradise Valley Unified School District, to understand what acts of kindness and the Goshin Actions Heros have to do with karate, but I hope to get them enthusiastic about the project.”

Check back in from time to time to see how many acts of kindness our students have completed. Or better yet add some yourself at https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8186829832650938427&postID=5572664368017707111&isPopup=true
