During December 20 ~ 23, the northeast and central Luzon TIMD instructors training was held at Cabanatuan City purposely to prepare themselves for the year 2004 and strengthen their capability to guide their students. 10 TIMD Instructors and Assistant Instructors from Tuguegarao, Dagupan, and Cabanatuan TIMD Chapters were participated.
The training was short but the training was focus on reviewing their basics and introducing to them the new manual instruction as well as teaching them the new form and the new TIMD philosophy as their instrument to educate their students.
The general impression of all the participants was good and they all testified that there is truly a hope to utilize the potential of TIMD to educating the youth particularly the students by using the TIMD philosophy and the instructional manual which according to them is already the Unification Principle.
TIMD Regular Training at UTS Asia in Philippines
We had a workshop for all UTS students in Philippines. UTS Instructors and Students and Manila TIMD Instructors were participated.
TIMD is part of the UTS Asia in its academic curriculum and all students are required to participate and attend its weekly scheduled training. I am rendering my services to teach all UTS students every Saturday 6-8 in the morning. The purpose is to provide a thorough training lesson and set a model course so that upon their graduation, they will become an official Black Belt Holder and TIMD Instructor applied to both AB Degree and Masters Degree program.
Recently, a special workshop for both UTS students and Metro Manila TIMD Instructors joined together for the said training with the theme: "Advance Marching Bravely Forward with Discipline," provides an impact for all the participants to focus and make themselves worthy to be called instructors and potential instructors of TIMD. A philosophy was lectured as well as the whole meaning of the form. New form was also taught and all were so inspired by the new spirit of TIMD.
