Ennis Black Belt Academy

🥋Our buddy night was a success! We are so thankful to everyone who brought someone and participated

It always makes training more fun when you have someone you already know walking the journey with you AND they can keep you accountable for showing up and putting in the work 🤝

😮👏We had a HUGE kids sparring class on Thursday!

It is always so good to see the next generation of martial artists training with us and working hard to get to their goal of black belt! 🥋

What an **AMAZING test!** 🥋👏

So few people who begin their martial arts journey make it to this level, and we are incredibly PROUD of every one of these students!

Each of these boys and girls faced their own challenges along the way, pushed through difficult moments, and continued showing up. The perseverance, discipline, and dedication they’ve developed will stay with them for years to come—both on and off the mats

Please help us give them a HUGE round of applause and congratulations for this incredible accomplishment! 🎉🥋👏

In times of joy, we celebrate together as a community. In times of grief, we must come together with that same strength to support those affected by tragedy.

Recently, one of our students suddenly lost her father. We are asking our EBBA community to surround her family with love and support during this incredibly difficult time and remind them that they are not alone—we all have their back.

Thank you for helping us take care of one of our own. ❤️

🤼 **Ground Defense!**

Taekwondo is our primary style, but real-world self-defense can be unpredictable. You may need to defend yourself on your feet using strikes—or the situation could end up on the ground.

A well-rounded martial artist should be prepared for both!

Of course, our students also just love wrestling with each other—and judging by all the smiles, they had a great time practicing! 🥋💪

🙌A HUGE congrats to all of these testers! 🥋

The martial arts journey isn’t an easy one and most people give up LONG before hitting the goal that they set out to accomplish. These guys and girls are sticking with it and climbing that mountain 🏔️ one step at a time

🎉🌴💦Pool party was a success!! We love bringing the community together and building friendships, connection and just hanging out!

We love seeing all the new faces in our Intermediate Class! 🥋🔥

These boys and girls are showing what GRIT and PERSEVERANCE really look like. It is not always easy to stick with something, keep pushing through challenges, and continue showing up—but they are doing exactly that!

We are so proud of their hard work, determination, and growth. Keep it up, Intermediate Class! 💪👏

🇺🇸Happy 250th America! 🦅

Y’all enjoy the holiday and be safe!

Great kids sparring class! We love seeing these students put their skills to the test! 🥋
