Goodwill Tournament Sat. Feb. 26th

Every year our school participates in the GOODWILL TOURNAMENT, which is held in the Beaufort High School Gym. This is the only local tournament we attend and therefore the only chance for our students to compete without having to travel a great distance.

This is a GREAT tournament for all ages and ranks. Divisions are broken up into small groups so students don't have to compete against 15-20 other competitors. There will even be a special division just for the TINY TIGERS!

Pre-register by February 22nd and the cost is only $60 for 1-3 divisions. After the early bird deadline, the cost will be $65. You can register right through the EVENTS Tab in the Dunamis App!

Stripe Testing Feb. 7-10

All Classes will be having “STRIPE TESTING” the week of Jan. 7th. We will evaluate the students on all the skills we have covered over the past 5 weeks. We will evaluate the “A” day and “B” day skills so students need to do their best to attend both days this week!

There is no cost for stripe testing!

Blast to the Future Parents Night Out
Friday, January 21 6:00 - 9:00 PM

Great Scott! We have to save the space-time continuum!

If my calculations are correct, your last night without the kids hasn’t happened in well over 30 days! If you don’t get a night away soon, the consequences could be CATASTROPHIC!

Not to worry! I have invented the perfect solution! The Blast to the Future Parents Night Out!

Bring your little time traveler to a night of fun and games with their friends. They will battle on pirate ships, play future bowling, have an old west duel, rebuild the pyramids, and more!

I have been to the future and seen that this Parents Night Out will Sell Out. Don’t wait, the entire timeline depends on your kids!

Reserve your spot not by registering through the EVENTS TAB on the Dunamis app!

Saturday, February 12th

Remember sparring is part of your belt requirements.
Purple Belts and up are required to spar at least
once every 2 months (on average) in order to belt test.
$5.00 - Pay through the app or bring cash

Students must have their own sparring gear.

If you need to purchase gear, the instructions are in the “INTERMEDIATE CURRICULUM” section of the app.

Practice Run Tournament
Friday, Feb. 25th

On Friday, Feb. 25th, we will have a tournament practice run though.

This class will be a practice run allowing students to practice speaking to the judges and demonstrating their kata and/or weapon form. It is a great way to work out some nerves before the actual tournament.

This event is only $5 for non club members.
