Congratulations to all our adults who tested! They did an excellent job and are becoming more calm under stress. Special congratulations to Nicholas Jones, our young Deputy Black belt who had the privilege to test with our adults and completed an incredible power break. He has come a long way, his mom and him are incredibly involved in demonstrations, competitions, and our family events. He has started teaching students below his belt rank and displays wonderful leadership skills. His serious character and determination will take him far!
Congratulations to Ethan, James, and Mr. Franck on their power breaks; they completed their task in one-shot. They had a wonderful testing, especially Mr. Franck who did not miss a move! Mr. Franck, Mr. Charles, and James have been helping in the 6:30pm classes and they have been wonderful with the students. Today we had witnessed their great progress, especially to Mr. Charles who had not tested in many years yet has the agility of someone half his age. Congratulations to all our students on their hard work and determination to achieving their goals at becoming better martial artists and individuals.
We would like to thank Mr. Charles, Mr. Franck, Master Maria, Master Dr.Adler for their help throughout the testing. Also a special thank you to our judges Master Dr.Adler, Master Robert & Maria Zavalakos for judging and their continual support!
Belt presentation is tomorrow and we look forward to seeing our students to hand them their belts and certificates. Congratulations!
Also a reminder, we will be closed this week July 1st (Wednesday) through July 3rd (Friday) in observance of the Independence Day Holiday Weekend. We hope everyone has a happy and safe holiday!
