Month: July 2025

Touch up on what you guys want to work on the next two weeks with youth. could be in line with what we’ve been doing, or not. keeping in mind we will be gettin simple and self defense oriented for back to school for our youth in just 2 weeks. Their first day back is next week, but we start our new schedule that starts classes at 445 the week after. Just reminding you guys.

Tim is out on Tuesday & Wednesday, but said he could probably be back wednesday so I just have him on that day. If he can’t we’ll be short, but I’ll fill in and Moon and I will just swap Muay Thai and Little thrashers for Wed. as well. no big deal.

Keep in mind some youth and adults may not have been in last week for promotions, and some stripes and/or belts may need to be given out. Let me know also if there are any issues with any parents that may have had sour grapes about their kid not getting promoted. We always have one or two, if it’s not the same ole players, keep me in the loop. If it’s the same jabronis as always, don’t care.

I know Professor John was able to get out with the kids this past weekend for a little getaway, keep his skin in your thoughts and prayers, he’s not built for the sun.

We have a lot of stripes to give out and about 8 belts. Let’s be there to support those who have worked so hard.

We will need help testing the individuals coming up Friday. I will post the testing schedule and times tmw.
For Future notice, anyone expecting to ever receive a black belt should be expected to learn to administer a belt test. Professor John and I talked at length about the progression to black belt and after and that is going to be a great addition to the community. I’ll let you guys know when it’s up for anyone that can help or would like to sit in and watch from a different point of view.

Spider Guard: Youth Instructors stay with Spider, but do what you think is necessary, top or bottom and then fill me in end of week on where we’re at.
