Sensei Dawn Marie Ely and Beacon Director Hassan Wazani held our Gee presentation ceremony for our 6 to 8 year old Martial Arts group last week. This is the 20th year the Roosevelt Island Youth Program has offered free Martial Arts classes for youth and adults, the Martial Arts Program is a New York City Department of Youth and Development funded component of the Roosevelt Island Youth Program Inc. Pictured below are our 6 to 9 year old class and the three members receiving their gees from Sensei Ely are Anthony Chin, Fazeel Asim and Nicole Wallace. The classes are held at PS/IS 217 Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evening from 6 to 9PM. If you are interested please call Hassan Wazani at 212-527-2505 between 2 and 9PM, Monday to Friday.
Congratulations to the kids for their accomplishment.

The best comment Roosevelt Islanders can make to "Miss Dawn" and more broadly, to Beacon Director Wazani is THANKS! Let us not underestimate or 'under appreciate' the value of these wonderful Island programs for our youth.
