Center for Martial Arts - Carmel Valley

While this is difficult given all the wonderful relationships that have been formed, CMA has been privileged to connect and work with so many. We wanted to thank you all for being part of the community that made it such a pleasure for the more than 30 years!

Many have also asked if there is anything they can do or how they can help as CMA moves through this transition. We've created a GoFundMe to help with the remaining expenses and obligations associated with closing the school. Any donation or simply sharing the page is greatly appreciated. https://gofund.me/2bee006ea

Note that CMA is celebrating with one more class, along with food and friendships tomorrow, Aug 8th at the Encinitas location. Stop by if you have the time. Once CMA family, always CMA family. 🥋

Today, we remember the fallen.
We honor their families.
And we remain grateful for the freedoms their sacrifice helped protect.

In last Saturday's Teen/Adult Class, while wrapping up a class, Master Pattison asked if anyone knew the difference between Memorial Day and Veterans Day.

Veterans Day honors all who served.
Memorial Day honors those who gave their lives and never made it home.

It’s a day of remembrance for the men and women who sacrificed everything in service to this country, and for the families who continue carrying that sacrifice every day.

Today, may we pause to remember those who gave everything for freedoms many of us experience daily without a second thought.

May we never forget.

Incredible work from today’s testing group. The dedication across both CMA studios keeps raising the bar.
