Congratulations to Greg and Shawn, for doing an amazing job today on their Black Belt Pre-test.  The test was about 3 and 1/2 hours, and they were outstanding.  I look forward to seeing them perform on their Black Belt Test.

I would also like to thank DeWayne for helping us administer the test and continually motivating and encouraging everyone.  Your help was greatly appreciated.

A friend posted this on facebook, and after I laughed it had me thinking.  What is the world coming to.

I’m extremely fortunate to have grown up when I did.

If your teenage son’s idea of a hero is a “Glittery” Vampire, I think you should be a little worried.

It’s not that I don’t like Vampire movies, because I love “Underworld”, “Blade”, and many others.  It’s just that I find the “Twilight” Vampires creepy.

Let me know what you think.

There are a lot of Martial Arts movies, and a lot of action stars.  So, why don’t we see more martial artists in commercials?

Who knows, but there is one company that likes to use martial artists in their commercials.  “Mountain Dew” (I believe they are owned by Pepsi.)

The below 3 commercials feature Jackie Chan, Chuck Norris, and Steven Segal.

I think they’re pretty funny.  I don’t know what Mountain Dew has to do with martial arts.  But I have to say; I like their commercials.  I hope you do as well.

I came across this article and thought it was pretty balanced, so I decided to comment on it. No matter how you slice it, it seems that the educational system of this country is in trouble.

If you live in Florida and have children, then I’m sure you’ll be really upset after finding out that 89% of our kids did not make adequate improvements this year.

Unlike the media, I’m not looking for someone to blame. Instead, I’m thinking of what I can do to make a difference.

At Elite Martial Arts, we send progress reports home with our kids, and both their parents and their teachers must say that they are doing a good job at school and at home. These forms are filled out in order for the children to be allowed to test for their next belt rank.

Since every child in our program wants to advance, it becomes a clear goal for the children to achieve.

Additionally, most children today struggle when it comes to focusing. It is not surprising that they find it difficult to concentrate in a world that is characterized by television, video games, and cell phones.

In speaking to a lot of parents, it seems as though many kids today whine about doing their homework for a longer period of time than it takes to actually complete their homework. This means that the kids don’t have an issue with time, but time management.

This is why the positive influence of martial arts, and the life-skills that we focus on can make a difference in your child’s life. We not only give your children an outlet for their energy, but also teach them to focus and complete tasks instead of whining about them.

It’s nice to see that someone in MMA is actually getting a real chance in Hollywood. I have no idea if this movie will be any good or not, but it has a lot of stars in it. Someone in Hollywood must really believe in Gina Carano.
