Please check your email to see if you or your child's name is on the list and for the test time and location (indoors or outdoors, and if indoors which classroom they will be in).  All testing will be at the school and registration should be completed before the test, and tuition must be up to date.  If you cannot make your test please let us know.

There will be no classes (indoors or outdoors) on test day.

Test candidates should take as many classes as possible between now and test day.  Mighty Lions should continue to take two classes per week to prepare for their test.

The clocks haven't even changed yet and nonetheless sunset today will be at 5:50pm and we won't be done with classes for another hour.  Therefore, just like last year when we held outdoor classes all winter, we are moving classes to the parking lot at the school where we have lights.  

As the weather gets colder students can wear gloves, a hat or a jacket to stay comfortable. Sneakers continue to be necessary, of course.

Indoor classes will continue as scheduled. 

We look forward to seeing everyone in class!

We are invited to the 5th Annual Founders Championship which is being held in honor of Supreme Grandmaster Bok Man Kim.  The competition will be held on Saturday, 12/4/2021 at the OYO Hotel in East Hanover, NJ. 

To prepare for it we will have competition training at the school on Sunday 11/7 and 11/21 from 10:30am to 12:00.  All Juniors and Adults are welcome to attend.  Students who have fighting gear should bring it.  

Also starting on 11/2, Tuesday classes for Juniors and classes for Juniors and Adults will have rank-appropriate sparring drills.  This means that students below Green Belt will work on step sparring or on structured sparring drills.  Students who are Green Belt and above will do sparring.  For these classes also students who have fighting gear should bring it.
