Great Job By All Tournament Participants!

Congratulations to everyone that was in today's tournament.  Not everyone is able to bring home a trophy, but I was able to see each and every one of my students from where I was sitting and I am very proud of how hard everyone worked.  It takes a great deal of courage to perform in front of others and even mor eso to perform in front of people you don't know.  Great job done by all of our students!

Congratulations to our newest Black Belts!!!

Students show up for class and put on hours of hard work and dedication to their art.  Today that work paid off.  We wish a heart felt congratulations to our newest group of students being promoted:

Jacob Dumont - Jr. Black Belt 1

Jason Simonelli - Black Belt, 1st Dan

Vincent Mascoli - Black Belt, 1st Dan

Michelle Willey - Black Belt, 1st Dan

As a special note, Michelle started classes as an adult student - a working mom with 2 kids and a supportive husband.  Proof that age is NOT a factor when making the decision to study the martial arts.

Congratulations to all!

Schedule for Christmas Week

I just wanted to take a minute to remind everyone of the schedule for the next two weeks.  This week we will be holding classes on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday only, due to the fact that Christmas Eve falls on Thursday.  We will be closed from Saturday, December 26, 2015 through Friday, January 1, 2016, so there will be no classes next week.

Due to the shortened schedule, I will be combining all Snakes (7-10 yrs) and Leopards (10-14 yrs), as well as Junior Black Belts and Adults for this week only.

If you are a Snake or Leopard you may come to any of the following classes:

Leopards - Monday 6:00 - 6:45
Snakes - Tuesday 5:45 - 6:30
Leopards - Wednesday 6:00 - 6:45

If you are either an Adult or Junior Black Belt you may come to any of the following classes:

Junior Black Belt - Monday and Wednesday 6:45 - 7:30
Adults - Tuesday 6:30 - 7:30

Thank you all for an enjoyable year and I hope you have a very happy holiday!
See you this week!

Sensei John
