My daughter has recently returned to Martial Arts after a few months off. In the fall time she decided that she wanted the opportunity to try different things and put more emphasis on her shooting training. Recently she returned to her old school and has truly been enjoying her return.
Throughout her absence her coach kept in close contact with her, talking to her about MA, staying interested in her other activities and she even would go to a few classes and watch the training. It was really good for her to keep in contact with her fellow classmates and through her coaches encouragement and the other students she decided on her own terms to rejoin classes.
My question is has anyone else had students that have left to persue other things and have they rejoined your classes? Do you make an effort to keep in contact with them to encourage their return? If so, how?
