Time for an upgrade!

We’ve been planning a full window upgrade for a while now. The dream was to do it all at once, but life had other plans. The good news: the first batch is in, and the new zebra blinds are already making the place feel different. A few custom pieces are still in the works, but we’re enjoying the progress as it comes. More updates ahead.

A little Force‑power to kick off the week? Absolutely. May the 4th be with you as we jump into a new month and bring that unstoppable Lion’s Way energy to the mats.

Stronger techniques. Sharper focus. A whole crew ready to roll. Let’s make this week epic.

May is here and the mats are calling. New month, new momentum, and we’re kicking it off strong.

Fresh goals. Fresh energy. Fresh faces stepping onto the mats as we sharpen skills, build confidence, and push for real progress. School’s almost out, summer’s on the horizon, and there’s no better time to jump in.

Let’s make May a month of strength, sweat, and serious growth.

Last Monday of April! May’s knocking on the door, ready to spark blooms and big gains. School’s out before we know it, so now’s the time to ratchet the training up and ride that momentum. Bring the hype, bring the heat, bring the training!

Looks like the weather finally remembered how to be nice! We might even see the 70s next week. Summer is going to be awesome.

And yes—we’ll be training straight through it. Today, next week, and all summer long. Jump in whenever you can!

Happy weekend!

Oh, how fickle the weather can be. Good thing we train indoors. Year‑round, school time or summer time, you’ll always find the best training right here at Lion’s Way Martial Arts.

Now let’s roll into the end of the week and make those gains count. See you on the mats.

New Monday, new momentum! Belts are IN for Children and Teens, and we start handing out new ranks today. Bring that fire, push hard, and get ready to level up with brand‑new techniques.

Adults — heads up! Our next Open Registration is only about six weeks away. This is your shot to jump into one of the most focused, high‑energy training groups around. Start planning now and be ready when the window opens.

Let’s make it a strong week all around.

Assistant Spotlight!

They don’t get nearly enough credit, and it’s time we change that. This is David and Aria—two people who work tirelessly behind the scenes and on the mats to keep Lion’s Way running smoothly.

They’re the ones keeping the place clean, helping new kids get comfortable, supporting training, and stepping in wherever they’re needed. Our assistants are trained to be adaptable, multitalented, and ready for anything.

Next time you’re in, give them a big, genuine thank you for everything they do. Lion’s Way is better because of them.

Huge congratulations to everyone who tested on Friday! Results are now posted in the entryway.

It was a smaller group this time with Spring Break in full swing. If your child missed testing, please chat with us when you come in — we’ll be setting aside time for make‑up tests to accommodate family travel and vacations.

Now it’s time to hit the ground running. This week we get back to putting sweat on the mats, knowledge in our minds, and great feelings in our hearts.

Let’s train hard and make it an amazing week!

Because of Spring Break, this test cycle is smaller than usual, but punctuality is still essential. Once a test has begun, late students will not be allowed to enter. Starting on time helps us keep the schedule moving and ensures every student gets the focus they deserve. We appreciate your patience as we work through the requirements and do our best to keep the evening running smoothly.

White, Sr. White, Yellow, Sr. Yellow, Orange and Sr. Orange — 5 pm

If possible, teenagers should arrive at 5:00 PM to assist with the children’s test. If that’s not feasible, please arrive no later than 5:50 PM. The teenagers’ test will begin immediately after the children’s test concludes.

Once again, teens must be present no later than 5:50 PM. All teens are expected to attend the test, whether they are participating or not. Please support your teammates and plan to stay for the entire duration of the test.
