We had an awesome time this last Saturday playing paintball! If you missed it, you’ll have to wait till next year. We had close to twenty players from LWMA and combined with our friends from Woodinville Martial Arts who had over twenty, we had a fantastic group. Missed the large group shot this year, but I got a few pictures of those that weren’t too camera shy. Hope you can make it next year!
This week isa full week of training. Kids and teens are going technique heavy as we hit mid-month and next month’s testing is looming. Don’t wait to the last minute to get ready, trying to cram for a martial arts test is never a good idea. Adult CAMBO class will be working some good old fashioned hip throws, while on the ground we’ll be starting a series on the ever-popular leg locks. Such a great time to be training.
It was a short week of training but there is so much going on. Kids and teens really rocked it this week. When they are pushing me to keep up, I know I’m doing something right as a coach. Fabulous. Adults were also leaving me soar, hitting new throws and really polishing the butterfly guard into something dangerous. Such a dedicated group of students across the board.
Wednesday already? Crazy how missing one day seems to make the week move that much faster. So much energy from the kids’ classes yesterday, it was fabulous! I expect to see more of that today.
Happy Labor Day everyone. We hope you are getting the chance to enjoy a 3-day weekend. Reminder, we are closed for all classes today. Use your time wisely because on Tuesday are back as normal and we have some exciting things planned for the short week. See you soon!
Welcome to another great Friday. September is off to a great start; seeing kids, teens and adults all pushing so hard does a coach proud. As a reminder, Monday is Labor Day. We will be closed for classes on Labor Day, so enjoy the long weekend. Classes kick back into high gear on Tuesday, so come in ready to hit the ground running. 
I love when people call me up and say something like “I did my research before calling and you’re who I called.” The internet is such a wonderful place to find information, get reviews, check out to see if a place is right for you.

As Aug. comes to a close, Sept. rises to greet us. School is back in session, and despite the restrictions, seems to be off to a good start. Training is going fantastic, and we will continue that trend this week. 
Fridays always bring such happiness! We’ve had a fun week of training, kids have started school, so many great new people on the mats for the first time. It just doesn’t get much better. Even the weekend is looking good with nice temperatures and sunshine! Hope everyone has some great plans, have a great weekend and we’ll see you next week!
The Kent School district starts school this week! Congratulations to all the kids headed back to class.
