PASTOR:
AARON VRIESMAN MARTIAL ARTS @ THE CHURCH
My name is Aaron Vriesman and I am the (solo) pastor at North Blendon hristian Reformed Church in Hudsonville. I have been pastor at North Blendon for two and a half years. While studying in seminary, I joined Ung’s School of Martial Arts in early 2002, having previously studied martial arts for 8 consecutive years. I earned a 1st Dan Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do on September 6, 2003 from Master Eang Ung. For the past year, I have been teaching a martial arts class through my church. The class is for children at least 7 years old and has gone remarkably well. The class started with nine students and almost a year later we now have 20 students – of which nearly half are from outside our church. I operate this class under the supervision of Master Eang Ung, who administers the testing for the students’ advancement towards higher ranks and belts. Master Ung gives his guidance to me as I seek to improve my skills as an instructor and leader of the class. The students are visibly improving in their technique, discipline and general character. Parents have told me their child’s grades in school have improved since joining the class, and that their behavior at home has also improved. I am grateful to Master Ung for all of his assistance in starting this class and I hope to continue holding this class for as long as I can.
