Black Eagle Martial Arts

A little late, but we still have some great memories from this summer to share!

🇺🇸 2026 AAU Taekwondo National Championships

This summer, 17 Black Eagle athletes traveled to Fort Lauderdale to compete at AAU Nationals, with five of our athletes earning bronze medals in their divisions.

With Master Brandon in Korea and unable to attend Nationals this year, Master Lexi led our team throughout the competition, with Coach Shreeya and Coach Victoria assisting her along the way. We’re also incredibly thankful to all of our parents who helped in so many ways, and to our athletes who supported, encouraged, and coached one another throughout the week.

Seeing everyone come together like this made this year’s Nationals especially meaningful for us.

Congratulations to all 17 athletes who represented Black Eagle Martial Arts on the national stage. We’re proud of what you accomplished and grateful to everyone who played a part in making it possible!

After more than 7 years of training with us, Nakul and his younger brother Dev will be moving overseas.

Nakul has been a wonderful example in our dojang as a black belt, a sparring team member, and a leader for our younger students. Dev has also grown with us through the years, always bringing a bright attitude, steady effort, and many great memories to our dojang.

Watching students walk through our doors for the first time, grow step by step, and become positive examples for others is one of the most meaningful parts of what we do. Saying goodbye is never easy, especially after sharing so many years together, but the memories and lessons we shared will always stay with us.

Even from far away, we believe the connection we share through Taekwondo will continue. Nakul and Dev, we are so proud of you both, and we will always be cheering for you wherever your journey takes you.

And we truly believe that one day, we will meet again.

You will always be part of our Black Eagle family! ♥️

The journey to Nationals begins.

This week, 17 athletes from Black Eagle Martial Arts are traveling to Fort Lauderdale, Florida to compete at the 2026 AAU National Championships.

Behind every competitor is a story of hard work, discipline, and perseverance. These athletes have earned the opportunity to compete on one of the biggest stages in AAU Taekwondo, and we couldn’t be prouder.

Compete with confidence.
Respect everyone.
Support your teammates.
Leave everything on the mat.

No matter the outcome, you will always represent Black Eagle with pride.

Good luck, Team Black Eagle. Let’s make this a Nationals to remember!

Happy Birthday, Master Lexi! 🎉

You are such a genuine and caring person, and the way you always support and encourage everyone around you means so much to all of us.

Your positivity, kindness, and energy make a huge difference in our dojang every day. So many students look up to you not only as an instructor, but also as a person. The way you care for people and always cheer others on is something really special.

Thank you for always giving your best and for being such an important part of the Black Eagle family. We’re truly grateful for everything you do.

We hope you have an amazing birthday filled with all the love and encouragement that you give to everyone else every day. ❤️🥋🦅

We want to share something really special coming to DSM! 🇰🇷

Master Brandon’s mom, Mama Son, recently started a small kimchi business called MamaSon Kimchi(), and we’re excited to share it with our community.

She spent her whole life running a restaurant and cooking, and now she’s making kimchi the same way, in small batches, using traditional Korean recipes and decades of experience.

It’s not mass-produced, and you can really taste the difference. Just clean, authentic kimchi made with care.

They’ll be offering local delivery around Des Moines and nearby areas, with orders opening in early May.

If you enjoy Korean food or have been curious about real kimchi, we definitely recommend checking them out 👇

Last weekend, 19 athletes proudly represented Black Eagle at the AAU Minnesota Championship.

We achieved outstanding results and received tremendous support and recognition throughout the day. But more importantly, what stood out the most was not the medals. It was the strength of our team, the way everyone supported one another, and the unity we showed from start to finish.

Athletes, coaches, and families came together as one team and created something truly special.
That kind of teamwork and spirit is what makes us proud to represent our school wherever we go.

Thank you to every athlete who gave their best effort, all the coaches who guided and prepared the team, and every family member who stood behind them with encouragement and support. We are truly grateful. 🙏

Next stop: Kansas. Let’s keep working hard!
