A little way back Wednesday for you. This time we step into our time machine to 4 years ago. His mom sent this to me to share. While he’s a quiet kid, he has always been hardworking and happy to be in class. Now he is in our advanced kids class working towards his children’s black belt. From a small guy to a true monster on the mats, it’s been great having him, and his family, as a part of everything we do here.

This is what makes every day so special for me at Lion’s Way. Thanks to Connor and his mom for the great trip down memory lane.

Welcome to a new week. Last Friday’s test was a fabulous display of heart and dedication. The teens and kids put everything into this test, and it really showed. Some say grit is lost on today’s youth, I say they’re not looking in the right place. Fantastic job everyone! Testing results are posted in the school entryway.

Full schedule this week for all classes, children, teens, and adults. Let’s get training!

Testing Times for this Friday

Please remember to ARRIVE EARLY. Once a test has started, late students may not be able to enter. This is a big test, so please be patient as we work through it!

Teenagers – 6:30 pm!

If possible, teenagers should show up at 5 pm to help with the children’s test. If not, then please show by 6:30 pm. The teenager test will begin immediately after the children’s tests end.

All teens should show for the test whether they are testing or not. Please support your teammates and plan to be there for the entire test. Due to the size of this test, please plan for a late night.
