CURRICULUM: WEEK OF FEBRUARY 23RD

It’s that exciting time again—Youth Testing Week is here! 🎉 Our young martial artists have been putting in the work, showing dedication on the mats, and now it’s time to take the next step in their journey.

As we gear up for testing, let’s make sure to get in those final required classes to be eligible to test. Every class counts, and every rep brings you closer to success! Plus, a little extra review never hurts, so let’s stay focused and sharpen our skills.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Parents, we need you too! This week, we invite you to step onto the mats during your child’s regular classes. Your support makes all the difference, and joining in will help them feel even more prepared and confident for testing day.

📅 Schedule Update:
Since testing falls on a Friday this month, we’ll have a modified Friday night schedule for all our members. Please keep an eye out for updates and plan accordingly.

To all of our dedicated youth testers—best of luck and skill! We are incredibly proud of the effort, discipline, and hard work you’ve put in to reach this moment. No matter the outcome, remember that progress is built through consistency, and just stepping onto the mats with confidence is a victory in itself.

Let’s make this a fantastic testing week! 🏆🔥

See you on the mats! 👊
