One of my favorite things to see in class is when a student realizes somebody is counting on them.

A partner needs them to stay focused.
Their team needs them to keep going.
Somebody younger is watching what they do.

Kids usually carry themselves a little differently when they know their part matters.

What’s something your kid takes extra seriously because they know other people are counting on them?

When the sparring drill says “stay light on your feet” and Ms. Brenda takes that very personally. 😂

Honestly, every class needs this kind of energy.

Happy weekend from Ms. Brenda making sparring drills way more fun than they have any right to be.

Back-to-school season has a way of showing us very quickly what our kids can handle on their own… and what we’ve maybe been doing for them out of habit. 😂

So I’m curious:

What’s one thing your child has taken over this year that you’re VERY happy not to be in charge of anymore?

Tag Team was easily one of the highlights of Nationals.

The ring was packed, the sidelines were packed, and once it started everybody wanted to watch.

Fast matches, quick tags, teammates yelling from the side, and a completely different feel from the rest of competition.

Here’s a little bit of our Tag Team action from IMAS Fall Nationals in Orlando.

IS YOUR STUDENT READY TO EARN THEIR NEXT BELT?!

This is the moment all of that hard work has been building toward.

Every class they showed up for.
Every technique they practiced.
Every challenge they pushed through.
Every time they could have quit… but kept going. 👊

Now it’s time to show what they can do.

Belt Promotion Testing is about so much more than receiving a new belt. It’s about courage, confidence, focus, and giving students the opportunity to step forward and prove to themselves just how far they’ve come.

There is nothing better than watching a student finish their testing knowing they gave it everything they had. 🙌

Their next belt isn’t just handed to them...It’s EARNED. 🥋

And we cannot wait to watch our students step onto the floor, give their best effort, and experience that incredible feeling of accomplishing something they worked hard for!

🔥 WHO’S READY FOR THEIR NEXT BELT?! 🔥

Nationals is about a whole lot more than what happens in the competition rings.
The Awards Banquet is a chance to celebrate the entire year, recognize competitors, judges, instructors, school owners, and the people who put so much into IMAS all year long.

There were awards, plenty of laughs, a few surprises, and a chance for everyone to actually sit down and enjoy the weekend together for a little while.

And after a year of uniforms, gear bags, tournaments, classes, testing, and early mornings… everyone cleans up pretty well too. 😂

A really fun night celebrating a really great year.

IMAS Orlando Nationals was a big one for Team Freedom.

Between Friday night, Tag Team, and Saturday competition we finished with:
🥇 20 Gold
🥈 20 Silver
🥉 16 Bronze
56 medals total.

We also had four students competing at Nationals for the first time: Ibraheem, Yusuf, Jasiah, and Zubair.

That was probably one of my favorite parts of the weekend. Watching them get out there, figure it out, settle in, and compete right alongside the rest of the team.

A lot of great matches, a lot of close ones, and a lot to be proud of.

Friday’s sparring seminar showed that a lot more goes into controlling a match than just being faster or throwing more techniques.

Master Freeman broke down some of the fundamentals that make a huge difference: managing distance, recognizing timing, creating openings, and learning when to attack instead of just reacting.

Lots of good work, plenty of rounds, and definitely a few laughs mixed in too. 😂🥋

Great seminar and a lot for everyone to take back into training.
