Too cold for school. No classes Saturday the 24th. Keep warm!

School has no power as of 4:45pm. No worries if you do not want to attend tonight. If you choose to still come to class, parents just wanted you to know the school will be in the 80s indoors - very light training, mostly conceptual tonight.

Career Day at a local school in . We gave five presentations and had a blast talking to all the grades, Kindergarten, 1st - 2nd, 7th - 8th, 3rd - 4th, and finally 5th-6th at Branchline. Awesome day. Love their questions about what we do for a living. It reminds me why we love to talk to kids. Thanks Branchline and Ms. Amy for inviting us.

Testing Days at Ambrose Academy. Congratulations to our testing candidates.

Special shout out to Anton and Theo, showing great patience and tenacity, staying with the school through zoom for a year during the pandemic and finally able to achieve this goal to brown belt.

Kudos to Adriana for coming back to the school when we reopened our doors. She was about to test for yellow belt, when she broke her arm. Now she is better than ever. She tested with Lilianna and they both gave an outstanding test.

Congratulations to Lyla and Santiago, very enthusiastically studying for their next level and they did a great job, even though Lyla was running track and Santiago playing football during the same time period. Fantastic job!
