Hawkins and Carson started the tournament season strong in Fargo, North Dakota, this weekend.

Hawkins earned five top-two finishes, including first place in XMA Forms and XMA Weapons. Carson earned three top-three finishes, including first place in Sparring.

We are proud of how they represented Gray Falcon Family Martial Arts. Tournament competition gives students opportunities to challenge themselves, build confidence, work toward goals, and learn how to perform under pressure.

Congratulations, Hawkins and Carson. Their strong start shows what children can accomplish as they develop confidence, discipline, and determination through martial arts.
