Up and coming at Empower Martial Arts

Graduations

Our next Graduations will kick off Monday 23rd October and run in every class until the Saturday 28th October.

Please make sure Graduation forms are handed in before this week as we want to put all our attention on the Graduations that week and not at the desk discussing forms. (If the Graduation forms are handed in on Graduation Day the student will not Graduate that day, they will do it the next Graduation Day unless this is the Saturday and then it will be too late!)

Also note that no Progress Checks will be done on Graduation week. All Stripes must be earned before the Graduation week begins.

All students must have trained in at least 14 classes before the Graduation week begins. Please don’t aim for 14 classes…. 14 is the absolute minimum. There are 20 allocated classes and catch-up classes available so 20 is the number to aim for.

Brown Belt White Stripes

Brown Belt White Stripes will have their Progress Check on Saturday 28th October starting from 1pm and aim to finish for 2.45pm.

New Friday Classes

We now have additional Advanced Kids / Family class at 4.15pm and an Empower Ninjas class at 5.15pm.

If you would like to move one of your allocated classes to the Fridays please speak to an instructor.

Charity events at Empower Martial Arts

“Return of the Machines”

10.30am – 12noon, 8th October. 

Due to the the “Rise of the Machines” being such a hit we are returning for round 2!

Assistant Instructor, 5th Degree Black Belt and our very own longest running student Dave “The Machine” Dancer is putting on a very special charity event.

This is a fun family fitness event to help a family with a 1 year old named Summer diagnosed with Neroblastoma cancer. The family have had to sacrifice working commitments to spend all their time at the city hospital. This means there are dangers they might lose their home. 

Dave is trying to help the family pay bills so they can focus their time and energy to their daughter as everyone would while she goes through chemotherapy amongst other treatments and assessment’s.

The event will start at 10.30amd and run until 12noon. 

Everyone’s welcome, family members and friends. You don’t have to take part you can just support and brig the energy. 

There will be a bucket on the day and he has a GoFundMe page http://gofundme/389c9cee

See you at the Dojo.

The Educational New Year is here!

Its a new beginning. for many it means new schools, for some new education systems but for all children new challenges to help them grow.

The knock on effect ripples through to parents as it comes with new stress but also new needs and expectations.

Keeping structure is an important part of children’s and parents support. We’ve got your back!

EMPOWER is so much more than just a Martial Arts School…. it is a family community. 

Lets enjoy the new challenges and progress opportunities that this year will bring and excel together.

STRENGTHEN – SUPPORT – SUCCEED

Thank You

  I love the opportunities that Summer brings. I got to work with Matthew Hillman’s amazing team at King Heath Tennis Club and run a Martial Arts Summer Camp for them. There are so many incredible people out there doing incredible things. Open your wings and fly and I promise it will allow you to fall in love with life even more. Thank you for being so awesome. Looking forward to next year!
