Happy Friday
hello Tribe,
This one is going to be shorter and less formal than many of my emails, and I’m sending it to all of you on my list-
so you may be one of my students, a parent of one, a team member, or just someone we’ve met out at a community event who is getting my daily writing.
I just wanted to start this email by thanking you.
Whichever of those categories that you fall in to, you are taking your valuable time to read this email.
It makes my writing not for naught. 🙂
By the way, you can always also find my blogs here– and also podcasts and register for a 2-week free trial, intro and orientation program if you’re not a student yet and ready to give us a try.
The second thing I wanted to remind you about in this email is that it’s Blackbelt Retreat & Testing next weekend!Â
That means all Blackbelts and Blackbelt candidates will be out at Word of Life with me, for a weekend of training, testing, food, fun, fellowship and epiphany. 🙂
It also means, the dojo is closed next Friday and Saturday, and that you are ALL invited to the Blackbelt Extravaganza, which is also graduation for all our students!Â
  Get your free tickets here!Â
How’s Spring Break going by the way?
 I can’t believe Summer is almost here!Â
You can still grab a spot for one of our awesome training camps by the way!Â
It’s a time of training in the martial arts, leadership and even public speaking and communication skills, plus fun, friends and community- all things KMMA! And you can even test for rank!
Youth, teens, and families are welcome to attend!
Krav Maga Martial Arts Summer Training & Leadership Camp (June 12-23 2023)
Krav Maga Martial Arts Summer Training & Leadership Camp (July 10-21 2023)
Finally, have an amazing weekend!
St. Patty Day Parents Night Out at the Dojo tonight after classes, Master training and regular classes tomorrow, and whatever else you’re doing this weekend- have fun!
You can call 813-948-4844 or download the KMMA App for more info on this weekend and all our great events.
Did I mention how much I value you, your time, and our relationship?
I’ll say it again, because I really do.
Prepare To Live & Empower To Lead!
