Word of the Week:
Studious
“Acting deliberately with a purpose in mind.”
When you commit to Black Belt, you commit to taking your martial arts training into your own hands. This means making an effort to get as much as you can out of every class and then practicing diligently outside of class. When we step onto the mat, it’s time to buckle down. We can always goof off later, and we don’t want to waste the opportunity we have to learn and grow on our Black Belt Journey.

Announcements
Regular Classes this week! Please check out our Summer Class Schedule here.
Demo Team Fundraising Car Wash This Saturday from 10am-2pm! The Beyond Sports Demo team consistently works hard to create and perform fun and exciting demonstrations. They recently attended the Utah State Championships and took Gold against some very competitive teams. This is a link to the youtube video of their performance. They have now set their sights even higher and are preparing to attend the US Open Hanmadang in Colorado at the end of next week. This is a very competitive tournament and they hope to challenge themselves and learn a lot. It is also a much more expensive tournament due to the travel expenses required. As such, they are working to raise money so that all of the members will be able to attend. We are really excited for them to take this step toward improving Taekwondo demonstration in Utah! Buy tickets from Demo Team members in advance, or come by during the 10-2 window. Thank you for your support!

We are a NO PEANUTS Facility!

Thank you for helping us keep each other safe!

Note on Close Dates:
Many families go out of town for Holidays & 3 day weekends, which means that if we had class, many students would end up being behind when they got back. To mitigate this problem, we generally follow Alpine School District’s (ASD) Calendar and are closed when students don’t have school. We have worked these breaks into our curriculum schedule, so that students who attend our scheduled classes regularly will cover everything they need in order to test. We publish our close dates for the year in our Yearly Calendar. Please refer to it and plan as many vacations as possible during close dates to help keep interruptions on your path to Black Belt to a minimum.
