Adult Student Role in "Hollywood's Finest Fashion Production" at the Clarion Hotel

Hollywood's Finest Fashion Production took place at the Clarion Hotel in Ft. Washington, Maryland, on Sunday, December 11. B. Bonilla, one of Dr. Thomas' adult students, played the character of James Dean, his second favorite actor/role model after Bruce Lee, when he participated in this production. Norman Cole, founder of Notorious Runway Productions, produced this latest in his series of shows. Notorious Runway Productions "is a multi-level community involvement fashion and entertainment company" and "has established itself as a community grass roots organization through its affiliation with small businesses, neighborhood commissions, civic groups and other community organizations." The organization has provided scholarships to students at Howard University, Morgan State University, and the Eastern Shore University. The Ramblers are pleased that Mr. Bonilla has had the opportunity to be involved with an organization that provides him with experience in his pursuit toward a professional acting career and that brings something positive to the community.

Ms. Brogsdale and Mr. Hinton's names are beautifully embroidered on the belts, in both English and Korean. According to tradition, the new black belts will be on probation for a year, during which they will be expected to teach and fulfill other requirements to show they are truly worthy of this honor and the respect that accompanies it. Dr. Thomas will look to them to be dedicated in their roles as instructors and to demonstrate their leadership before they become official black belts. The Rambler students and their families are proud of Mr. Hinton and Ms. Brogsdale, offer their congratulations for passing an impressive and exhausting test, and look to them to lead well and honorably, as they have been and will continue to be led and taught by Dr. Thomas.

    FIRST Robotics Competition: 2011 Washington DC Regional

    J. Martinez and G. Mckeown (see photos below) were part of Eleanor Roosevelt High School (ERHS) Team 53 that competed in the FIRST Robotics Competition. They worked with their teammates to build a large and a mini robot that ERHS team members operated during live games at Washington Convention Center, where they also worked in concert with other teams from around the country in playoff competition. The Robotics Competition began 20 years ago in a gym in New Hampshire. Now it is an extraordinary event with the involvement of mentor engineers from businesses around the country; elementary through high school teachers; political leaders supporting the effort to make it available to all students; and U.S. presidents honoring the champions at the White House. Student teams this year worked to solve LOGO MOTION, a high tech engineering challenge. Some teams developed a website, while animation pieces were created by others. Teams built and programmed robots to accomplish tasks and score points in a competitive game played in front of a large audience. An engineer himself, Dr. Thomas was very pleased to learn that Mr. Martinez and Mr. Mckeown had this wonderful opportunity to be creative and collaborate with not only their high school classmates to develop logic and problem-solving skills, but with other students from around the country, and at the same time to be role models for their Rambler classmates by demonstrating their leadership and teamwork abilities learned through their study of martial arts. Stay tuned for accounts from Mr. Martinez and Mr. Mckeown about the event and for more photos!

    2010 Updates from the Sanders Family

    There is a boatload of talent in the Rambler family. M. and J. Sanders are no exception and, in fact, they gravitate to water activities! M. Sanders was a member of last year's Seton High School women's rowing team and is currently training as a member of this year's team. Her brother, J. Sanders, is a lifeguard, certified through M-NCPPC. Check out the photos below.

    Ms. Sanders' first photo shows the Seton Novice Crew Team carrying the boat after their first race at the Bladensburg Waterfront Park. The second photo is a shot of the team's final race at 2010's Washington Metropolitan Interscholastic Rowing Association Championships, which they won. Congratulations, Ms. Sanders!

    Adult Student Role in Production of "Fashion Oz" at Howard University

    Congratulations to B. Bonilla, one of Dr. Thomas' adult students, who landed the role of The Lion in Norman Cole's Notorious Runway Productions scholarship fashion and entertainment production of "Fashion Oz" at Howard University's Blackburn Center in Washington, DC. Mr. Bonilla is a dedicated martial arts student, and he is working diligently toward his goals of becoming a professional actor, stuntman, and musician. His involvement in this local community production that Mr. Coles hopes to take on the road is a positive step in that direction. In this Wiz version, Mr. Bonilla joined Auntie Em, Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, Eviline, Eviline's helper, the Yellow Brick Road dancer, Ms. One, Glenda, and the four Twister dancers in an inventive production enhanced by runway fashion sets with female and male models of all ages and sizes showcasing signature collections by local designers interspersed throughout as the story advanced, bringing Dorothy and her traveling companions through their adventures to see the Wiz. Not to worry--Dorothy was able to get home at last and she stepped up her fashion sense along the way.

    High School Graduation of K. L. Hinton, Rambler First Brown Belt

    K. L. Hinton, Rambler first brown belt, graduated from Eleanor Roosevelt High School on Friday, June 4. After his graduation ceremony, the Ramblers honored him and celebrated his graduation at a gathering of Mr. Hinton's family, friends, and extended Rambler family. Held at the Bladensburg Community Center, this event was a happy and sometimes emotional sendoff for Mr. Hinton, a focused young man who has led as an assistant instructor, and will undoubtedly continue to lead by example as he moves forward to attend college and works toward his goals. T. Simpson-Clement, assisted by her husband and fellow Rambler student G. Clement, produced and showed a slide show that featured photos of Mr. Hinton's life. He took the stage to demonstrate his martial arts skills, which many of his friends and family had not seen, in homage of his many years with the Ramblers organization and the skills he has been privileged to learn from Dr. Thomas. In turn, to the surprise of many of his Rambler family members, he showcased his impressive vocal talents when he performed an a cappella selection with two of his talented high school friends. Mr. Hinton spoke of his appreciation for everyone who has been supportive of him, particularly his parents and Dr. Thomas, who in turn took the floor to express their pride and affection for this special young man. Congratulations from the Rambler family for this accomplishment, Mr. Hinton, and our best wishes for your future endeavors!
