The Kenpo Instructor's Handbook

I have a section on my website for Members and in it is The Kenpo Instructor's Handbook. It's a book that I add to from time to time to function as an aid to instructors and instructors to be. I originally was going to publish it as a book, a part of my series on kenpo. But I decided that with a paid membership to that section of the site, the instructor info alone would be worth the one-year membership and the rest is a bonus. And I made that decision based on what members have told me abut what they feel is the value of the material in there.

Presently the handbook has chapters on the background for teachers like "why teach?", a lesson plan format, hazardous attitudes (and their antidotes) that you'll encounter and recognize in your teaching experience, and the newest is about the importance of uniforms.

What I'm hoping for is some feedback from present instructors and future instructors, with suggestions on what to add and maybe an FAQ section. You can e-mail me through the website and you can take a look at the member registration information at http://www.leewedlake.com/index.asp?PageID=29.
