We’re Graduating, Too!

Tonight, I finally get to say it out loud.

KMMA HQ in Lutz is moving into a new, beautiful 3,300 square foot training facility — a true dream dojo — and we will begin classes there as we kick off Quarter 2.

This isn’t just a move.
It’s a graduation.

As our students complete their 1st Quarter testing cycle, our academy is graduating too — to the next level of space, capability, and vision.

Here’s how it will unfold:

Kyu Rank Belt Testing:
March 23–26

Blackbelt Retreat & Testing:
March 27–29

1st Quarter Graduation — Spring ’26 Blackbelts & All Ranks:
March 29
📍 Word of Life Retreat, Hudson, Florida

And then…

We return from graduation weekend and step together into our new dojo, launching Quarter 2 in a space built for who we are becoming.

I can’t overstate how proud and grateful I am.

Proud of the work our students have put in.
Grateful for the families who believe in what we do.
And deeply appreciative of the team that has helped carry this vision forward.

This academy has never been just about belts or buildings.
It’s about growth — personal, collective, and generational.

Thank you for being part of this incredible season at KMMA.
We’re just getting started.

With gratitude and pride,

Stephen J. Del Castillo
Founder & Chief Instructor

p.s. don’t worry. we aren’t moving far. but the new dojo is going to be beautiful, and with twice as much training floor and other enhancements too. so glad to share this with you.
