Jim and Jody King, along with their staff, have instilled in my daughter, over the years, a belief that she can achieve whatever she puts her mind to.&nbsp; Not just in becoming a Junior Black Belt but also in attaining better grades in school and realizing honors in other endeavors she has pursued. Discipline is also part of the learning experience.&nbsp; The discipline goes beyond just behaving well, this is discipline of mind and body.&nbsp; It is about self-control and concentration.
