ATA updates August 2016

Hello ATA!

We had a great in-school tournament event last week.  All the photos are located at  https://www.facebook.com/MasterBlackATA/photos/?tab=album&album_id=10153723394332967 (this is a public site, no need to be a facebook member to view)


It felt great to kick off our tournament season.


August special events:

AUGUST SUMMER CAMP - August 8-12 "it's just taekwondo camp" is next week from 10-2 pm each day, we still have a couple of openings for only $99 for the entire week, open to kids (7+) Karate Kids, Teens and Adults.  Each day we will feature everything you need to be great for this cycle and the August tournament competition.  Come for one or all days.  Daily rate is $35.  Bring your own lunch.  Each morning will start with an extended taekwondo class for your individual needs, thereafter each day we will spend some time on your protech weapon, boards, sparring and combat.  Gonna be a great week.

FIRST TOURNAMENT OF THE SEASON: AUGUST 13, 2016 LEGACY HIGH SCHOOL
The regional tournament team is looking for volunteers to help set up Friday night August 12, and volunteers for a variety of duties o the day of the event, including JUDGES!!  Our new system for the region is that each tournament is now hosted by the region, not an individual school.  We need you!!  All adult black belt judges, all legacy students, all leaders.  Be a part of something bigger than yourselves.  Get involved.
"Redefine yourselves"... 
(check shortly for a separate email from our regional tournament team)
