Hoodie Update
Hoodies are in! If you pre-ordered one, you can pick it up at the front desk. Students can wear them in class from now until March 31st. Hoodies had to be pre-ordered and are no longer available for purchase, but if any are left over once they’re all picked up, we will let you know. If your student doesn’t have one they should continue to wear their full uniform or comp team sweats. Learn more on our website.

Additional Tournament Information:
If your student is a beginner, we recommend signing up for the Recreational Ring. In this ring, instructors walk students through their form, which removes the memorization component. The Recreational Ring provides a fun, stress-free environment that introduces students to a tournament setting. All students ages 5-6 are automatically classified as Recreational.
The Competitive Ring is designed for students who have their form memorized (1st half of form only). Students compete for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place podium spots.
Students have the option to spar or do self-defense. This selection is made at the time of registration. If you don’t have sparring gear, self-defense is the best choice for you!
If you have any questions or would like clarification on how tournaments work, please feel free to reach out! You can respond directly to this email or call us at 303-928-0043.
