Pioneer Valley Martial Arts

Congratulations to Kyle, Ana, and Cassandra for earning their purple belts. They showed great skill!

For any student, first steps are so important. In that spirit, we congratulate our most recent testers - three white belts who proved that with dedication and practice, they will go far. In passing this first test, they have taken their first proud steps down a unique and enriching path.

They have made their teachers proud, and we cannot wait to see how far they’ll go from here.

We are canceling the all-belt class at 7:00 tonight. The parking lot is frozen solid ice and we couldn't find salt this weekend. It is too dangerous. We're sorry for the inconvenience.

Tonight during class, Kyo Sa Nim Kya moved her plaque up with the 3rd dan black belts. Kya was promoted to 3rd dan black belt on September 21st by Grandmaster Shin. Congratulations Kya!!

This is a student appreciation post! Over the past few months, we have had a couple of tests that are long overdue for recognition. So, this is a combined post showcasing pictures from the test on June 29 and the test on August 24. These students continue to show the kind of dedication and improvement that our school has always been about.

So, sorry for the delay in this post, but students please know: your teachers are proud of you, and you should all be proud of yourselves!

Next up, please also join us in congratulating our testers from May 18th! Well done all!

Recognition is owed and long overdue, but it has not been forgotten entirely.

To begin with, please join us in celebration of our testers from April 6th!

A reminder to all students, there will be no class on Monday, Memorial Day.

Good afternoon students and family! We have a test coming up, so mark your calendars!

The next all-belt test will be on Saturday, April 6 at 9:00am! Testers, please show up early to get stretched out - at least by 8:45.

All other students, please come to support your classmates. You may be picked to help with partner work, so bring your equipment.

And we will be having regular class afterward at 10:00.

This post is a bit late, but nonetheless important. A belated but hearty congratulations to our most recent testers. This was truly a great test - an example to be followed.

Well done!
