Books are mandatory for testing, you must have the book turned by testing day. If no hook is received then testing will be denied. 12 weeks total (progress reports and report cards count for the school part)

Do Not Throw Them AWAY. I need them back at the end of the cycle for your star on belt ceremony day. You can click here for the link to Star Book.

Parent Stripe

Each student under the age of 18 are required to earn a parent stripe. This stripe is done 1 time each testing cycle with the black belt standard (confidence - basics. respect- intermediate. focus - advanced). They need to improve in an action or habit that you would like to sec worked oil (example: wining, homework completed, chores. attitude, improved grades, etc) and set a time and date you want it accomplished by kind then write it down on a paper and have the student bring it to class for a stripe . Must be accomplished at least 1 week before testing in this case by next week for Poc and IF students.

Recruitment Challenge

Whose life will you change today? Many students have brought in friends this past month and we are challenging the rest of our students to spread the word and share martial arts with everyone. You never know who could really use it in their lives, look at what martial arts has done for you. Who would you be without it? Every student who brings in a friend and they enroll into our academy will receive $50.00!! If your guest does not sign up but they come to every class for the entire 30 days you will receive $5.00!
