August/September 2026 Newsletter

Congratulations to everyone who participated in the August Belt Promotion!
As summer comes to an end and a new school year begins, it's natural to feel a little of the "end -of-summer blues." This is the time of year when we start hearing excuses of not wanting to come to class and kids trying to make the most of their remaining free time to do nothing before returning to school. Martial arts works in the complete opposite way! Instead, now is the perfect time to reset, refocus, and set new goals. Whether it's in school, at home/work, or on the mats, remember that achievements come from staying focused, working hard, and never giving up when things get difficult.
All new green belts order sparring gear.
All new blue belts and above can order the Advanced Uniform.
Increased rank = increased challenges! Keep up by upgrading your membership to 3x/week or unlimited!
Struggling or need to make up classes? Private lessons are always available 1 week in advance. 1 for $40 or 3 for $99 (discounts on 3 packs for Premium and Elite Members).
We have an exciting few months ahead, so be sure to add these important dates to your calendars and set your goals:

We encourage every student to stay consistent with their training as schedules become busier. Even one or two classes each week can make a tremendous difference in maintaining progress, building confidence, and achieving success!
