Hello, all martial artists and wannabe ninjas. It’s Teaching/Training Tuesday! Sorry I haven’t posted in a bit. Got sick with whatever has been going around with the kids that are on the mat. One of the many perks of teaching kids for a living. It has been a while since I’ve had a fever because has been made strong from being surrounded by children and adults for the last 8 years but every once in a while the plague seems to find me. But enough about me…

Let’s talk about how awesome the Junior Jiu-Jitsu test went on Friday. I had the pleasure of promoting 6 children to yellow belt and one child to an orange bar. They all knocked it out of the park! I’m very proud of each and every one of them and I hope they all become future black belt one day.
