Happy Independence Day to all students and families.
AMA Newsletter – July 2022
Please know we are using a Summer Schedule that e
nds on August 19th. The summer schedule allows us to offer day tae kwon do classes. We’ve seen over the past several years that day classes have given students and families the choice to train in tae kwon do in the morning and participate in family functions in the evenings. This is a great opportunity to get extra classes in. Our summer class schedule can be accessed – Click here.

THINGS TO KNOW FOR JULY THROUGH AUGUST 2022:
Congratulations to everyone who “leveled Up” in June. To those who just joined our next grading event will be in September (see below).
Welcome new students. Our Youth Martial Arts program has been growing rapidly.
Welcome to all. Parents, please come watch class and see what your student has been learning. New students, we know you will have questions, please feel free to ask.
T – Shirts for summer – from June 1st to Labor Day students in Youth Martial Arts, Traditional Tae Kwon Do and Hapkido may wear ACADEMY T-Shirts instead of their jackets. We have several ACADEMY T-Shirts for the summer in Royal Blue still available for Sale. NOW COTTON $12 EA. DRY-FIT $18 EA. Check out the pro-shop, get yours today!
NOTE: Protective gear – Youth Martial Arts. Many have mentioned that they hurt their hands and feet when hitting targets, bags, shields, etc. We have available hand Gloves and Boots so that students do not injure themselves. These will be available to order and purchase at any time for students of Solid Yellow Belt and Above. We will have samples on our pro-shop wall for you to try on get the correct size.
Youth Martial Arts stripe testing – Stripe testing will happen 1 stripe every 3 weeks, with 4 color stripes total. Specific requirements will be available in our app for those requirements. If a student misses a specific stripe they will have 2 weeks to make them up before Test Grading for the next level. We will have classes available specifically for stripe review and testing starting August with our August Schedule. These extra days will be Saturday’s.Advancement testing is Sept 13th, 15th & 17th. If you have to be out of town, please contact Mr. or Mrs. Deaver so we can make arrangements.
All Black Belt Candidates please see Mr. Deaver the 1st week of July if you are planning on testing for your next level. These tests are a paid test and we need to order the belts ahead of time as well as set your meeting dates with family and the instructor..
As instructors, it’s important for us to make information regarding our programs and services easily accessible for our current and prospective clients, parents and students. We endeavor to provide our parents and students with the most accurate, up-to-date information and share our knowledge and expertise in the field of martial arts, self-defense and physical fitness.
Our goal with our website is to provide our visitors an easier way to learn about our services and to browse information based on their own choice. The website gives better access to Who We Are, How We Work, Expertise & Services, Our People, Blog and a forthcoming Knowledge Center, our curriculum, events, schedules as well as retail pages. Please bear with us as the site is going through some major upgrades in the month of July. If you would like we can send you an invoice directly rather than try and use the pro shop in the app. It has been cumbersome to say the least for many parents. If you wish to have specific videos, please email me directly and I can send you links to use, again many are having a hard time navigating the app.
Our current and prospective clients will find useful information about our services on the homepage of our website.
Amongst the new features the site contains integrated social media buttons for Facebook, Twitter, Google and Instagram to foster improved communication with clients. AMA can more easily update our content with helpful information, announcements and student successes in the Blog and news features.
For those of you who recommend us and a buddy or friend join, we want to be sure to say “Thank You”. I can’t think of a better way than to give you extra $ off the next month’s tuition. What a great way to get a Thank you for sharing our facility with your friends.
.Don’t forget we are offering Private Lessons either 30 minutes in person (paid) or 15 Min. FREE Virtually. A Great way to keep up when you miss days or get caught up when you take time off. See Mr. Deaver to schedule yours today!
NOTICE: All Students!
Please be sure to wear appropriate uniforms to class. We have had many students show up in generic shirts, shorts etc. This is disrespectful and truly not allowed unless it is your first class or you have ordered a uniform and it hasn’t arrived yet.
NINJA TRIX SHIRT AND SHORTS, not generic t – shirts and shorts.
Youth Martial Arts, Traditional Tae Kwon Do and Hapkido.
Academy T-Shirts or Uniform top, Uniform Bottoms & Belt.
As we know the economy is on the rise, inflation is affecting all of us. At the Academy it affects us too. In saying this, if you want to upgrade before August 1stand go to a 6 month or 12 month subscription you can save even more and lock in your rate.
Any new students joining in August or returning from taking time off will have higher fees unless they lock in the rates early!
