Wednesday! Reminder for all children and teens – Testing applications are due today!

We will post later testing times in the afternoon on Thursday! Please check back then.

Summer time tests are so fun!

Testing is this Friday for children and teens! Testing application will be sent home starting today (Monday). REMINDER: All testing applications need to be in on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday ONLY. We will not be accepting late applications for this test. Thank you!

Testing times for each belt level will be posted by Thursday, late afternoon.

Class schedule as normal this week, except for Friday.

Let’s make this a fantastic summer test!

Training is fun! We prove that every day with our spectacular classes. Children, teen and adults! So many great people on the mats this summer! Keep up the fantastic work!

Monday! Nice to see some rainfall, even if it is only for a short time. Next week will be testing for children and teens. I will send testing information home starting today. Keep working hard. Summer tests are usually spectacular! We also have a summer break coming in Aug., more on that later.

Adults are doing fabulous also! More work on foot sweeps, building combinations and taking the mount position. Staying busy and having fun!

Hot day! Air-conditioning is on and we will be training! Reminder to drink little bit of water through out the day, not all at once! Also, kids training please avoid fruit juices like orange juice if you are coming to train. The acidic acid combined with heat and activity can make for an upset stomach! Loving the sunshine!

Monday! Only a couple more weeks of July left to go. Hope summer isn’t passing you by too fast. Children and teens are about 3-weeks out from testing, so time to sharpen up those skills! Adults have been rocking the summer, and it’s great to see so many consistently hitting the mats! Great job everyone, keep that momentum going!

Wednesday! What a great week! Classes have been bursting with people and training is going fabulously! Keep up the great summer work!

Now for something a little different! If you like Mission Impossible, the new movie opened this last weekend. Our friends from New York Combat SAMBO / Breakfall Studios, did a segment on stunt work for CBS Morning News. While New York Combat SAMBO is a martial arts sport like our adult classes here at Lion’s Way, the work they do at Breakfall Studios, is a stuntman training ground. They have done work on numerous TV shows and movie like John Wick. Take a moment to check out their segment at this Facebook link and help us congratulate our friends!

Hope everyone had a fabulous weekend! Time to get back on the mats and get some summer sweat going. Children and teenagers are working our core curriculum this week, while the adults continue to work throw combinations and submissions from various top control positions! What a great time to be training!

Wednesday! Hope everyone had a fun, and safe, Independence Day! Looks like the heat today has backed off just enough for us to have classes. Air-conditioning is on and we’ll slow things down to ensure everyone’s safety. Please remember to drink water through out the day to stay hydrated.

If you feel it’s to hot for you to train, that’s okay. Remember classes can be made up and your well being it important. Take care and we’ll see you soon!

Welcome to July! We have a few things to be aware of heading into this month so let’s break it down.

Monday: Classes as normal!

Tuesday: No classes for July 4th!

Wednesday to Friday: Looks like we are in for a stretch of high heat, with it peaking on Wednesday. Reminder: While we will be running the air-conditioning, when temperatures reach over 90 degrees, we do cancel classes for everyone’s safety. Please check back on Wednesday as we will be monitoring the heat conditions closely and post an update by Wednesday afternoon. Drink that water and stay cool!
