Congratulations to everyone in the Kent School District who started classes today. It’s going to be a great year filled with challenges and new triumphs. We’re excited to support our students, families, and friends as the school season gets underway. It takes a village to raise a child, and we’re proud to be part of yours.

Good News / Bad News time. Starting today, we’re slowly removing items from our online store. Changes in US shipping charges are forcing us to adjust. The GOOD NEWS: we’ve updated our manufacturing process and new gear is on the way. Redesigned training shorts, all-inclusive pricing (tax and shipping included), and some long-requested items like baseball caps. Hang in there—it’s all coming soon.

Only a couple weeks until our annual paintball games. Teens and adults need to sign up at the school. Flyers are available now. See your instructor for details.

Let’s rock the rest of the week.

Monday’s here—and the next few weeks are packed with action! Let’s dive in.

🔥 This Week:

• Temperatures are high, but thankfully not too extreme. Still, make sure kids stay hydrated with water throughout the day.
• If you’re coming to class, please avoid fruit juices—especially in the heat. The acidity plus activity can lead to upset stomachs.
• The Kent School District kicks off its school year this week—welcome back to all students and families!

Next Monday (Sept 1):

• We’ll be closed for Labor Day in observance of the holiday. No classes that day.

🎯 Coming Up:

• The week after Labor Day, it’s time for our annual Paintball Games for teens and adults! Sign up at the school ASAP to reserve your spot.

Let’s finish summer strong—with excitement, great training, and a whole lot of fun.

Friday’s here, and so is the heat, but it’s saving the worst for the weekend, so training is ON.
As the school year kicks off, Lion’s Way Martial Arts is ready to give your kids the edge they need to thrive.

Life can be chaotic. But with discipline, confidence, and real physical skills, your child will meet it head-on—with ease!

It takes a village to raise strong, resilient kids. Let us be part of yours.
Together, we rise.

The heat wave came and went. Now it’s clear skies for the rest of the week and into next. Perfect time to get back to focused training and push ourselves as the new school year starts to peek around the corner.

Let’s get training Lion’s Way!

Tuesday Heat Advisory! – No classes today.

Training is canceled today due to extreme heat—with temperatures projected at 92°F to 94°F. Training under such conditions can quickly lead to dehydration, heat exhaustion, and other serious health concerns, especially for kids. Martial arts demands focus and physical intensity, and under this situation, it’s simply not safe. The forecast looks better tomorrow, so we expect to resume then. Please check back for updates!

Thanks for understanding and staying safe.

It looks like we’re heading into another hot week—unfortunately, not the kind we enjoy. We will be OPEN on Monday, but please check back tomorrow for updates.

Currently, the Kent area is forecasted to reach temperatures above 90°F on Tuesday. If the heat exceeds 90°F, we will cancel class to ensure everyone’s safety. While we do run air conditioning, it becomes ineffective in extreme heat. Please take precautions and stay cool.

During high-heat days, we will slow training down and adjust activities to keep things safe and manageable for everyone.

A quick reminder for those attending class: children should drink only water. While fruit juices may be tasty, the combination of acidity and high temperatures can lead to upset stomachs.

What a week! Training was strong, and we wrapped up our last belt test with some serious celebration. Belts arrive Monday—just in time to kick things up a notch.

With school starting soon for kids and teens, it’s time to sharpen focus and push the physical. Let’s make this school year the best one yet.

Have a great week and keep showing up strong!

Have a fantastic weekend!
