 The Martial Arts instructor and trainer course is a seven-week course with the end results of being an ethical warrior. An ethical warrior is a combination of everything in regards to the physical, the mental, and the character disciplines of the Minker's Martial Arts program. An ethical warrior is an individual who emulates and lives and eats and drinks these great values we have, the core values of honor, courage, and commitment. An ethical warrior is somebody that can be counted on. Instead of freezing, they're the first one to step up and say, I got it, I'll take care of this. You know you can count on them because you know that person is going to do the right thing 24-7-365. I live my career, my lifestyle, based on some of the core values and the synergies of the map of a physical, mental, and character discipline. Now it just made me a better person in general. If you're a good person, you're most likely going to be a good leader. The purpose of me coming here is to educate myself on how to train my Marines, how to be ethical warriors. You know, push yourself enough to where you need to stop thinking about yourself. It's more about the words you're writing, so even if you know you're hurting, it's not just about you. Hurry up! Catch up with First Squad! This is the Mecca of Mentorship. We pull the best Marines, get them to come here and lead and guide Marines and what they're doing is no more than what the Marine Corps has already asked of them, which is to be a mentor, to be a leader. Let's go! The ITs here have all been through the training that we're putting these Marines through, which is going to be our weapons firing. What's up, man? They have combat conditioning hours that they have to meet. They're going to go through low-light engagements. They're also going to experience engagements in different terrain. Ultimately, our job is to build better leaders. We tell them we don't want you to be just a great Marine. We want you to be a great man and woman first. The program is three-legged stool. The first leg is the physical leg. The second one is the mental leg. And then the third leg of the stool is the character. The beauty behind this program is you have to do all three, because if you only do one discipline, it's like sitting on a three-legged stool. If you're only sitting on one leg, you're going to fall down. It's important. This course is something that the Marine Corps should not let die. This is something that we need to continue in sending the Marines here. This program has affected many people on all levels, personal, professional, and just myself. It's made me a better husband, a better father, a better Marine, a better leader. It's extremely important. Do you deserve all three of them? No, sir. Do you deserve to be an IT? Yes, sir. Welcome to the family. Nice job. I'm proud of you. You're welcome.
