Celebrating our September Students of the Month: Harriet & Cait!

Cait brings incredible precision to her training, with an attention to detail and commitment to technique that are becoming of a Black Belt.

Harriet brings passion, hard work, and an infectious smile to every class. Her energy makes everyone around her want to train harder - instructors included!

We’re so proud of both of them and the example they set every time they step on the floor. Congratulations, Harriet & Cait! 👏🥋

🥋 DO YOU THINK YOU’RE TOO OLD TO START MARTIAL ARTS?

One of our current adult students is 77 years old and he just tested for his Second-Degree Black Belt.

He didn’t earn that belt because martial arts came with an age limit.

He earned it by continuing to show up, challenge himself, and improve one class at a time.

Our adult program isn’t about becoming the toughest person in the room. It’s about becoming stronger, healthier, more confident, and better prepared than you were yesterday.

You’ll improve your:

✅ Strength and flexibility
✅ Balance and coordination
✅ Fitness and endurance
✅ Focus and stress management
✅ Practical self-protection skills

You don’t need to be young.

You don’t need to already be in shape.

You don’t need any previous experience.

You simply need the courage to begin.

If one of our students can test for his Second-Degree Black Belt at 77, what could you accomplish if you started today?

🔥 TRY 30 DAYS FOR JUST $30 AND RECEIVE A FREE MARTIAL ARTS UNIFORM!

Come train with real instructors and real adults of different ages and fitness levels in a supportive environment.

For the first time in over a decade, we kept our doors open for Labor Day weekend Saturday classes and honestly, we weren’t sure what to expect.

Our students answered that question quickly: the classes were full!

Seventeen advanced students came together for 3½ hours of Black Belt and CDB training taught by Grandmaster Valentin. Their energy, commitment, and willingness to keep learning were incredible. Meanwhile, 21 Gups were on the other side of the school taking their regular classes.

No holiday excuses, just hard work, great attitudes, and students leveling up!

37 students strong! 💪🥋

She spent most of her first class holding Mom’s hand.

She watched as we invited her onto the floor.

“Nope. Not yet.”

So we didn’t push her.

Eventually, she tried one little thing and then another.

A few weeks later, that same little girl was walking onto the floor all by herself, excited and ready for class.

I LOVE watching that happen. ❤️

Because at 4, 5, and 6 years old, karate is about so much more than kicks and punches. Children are learning to listen, wait their turn, control their bodies, try something difficult, and discover:

“Hey, I can do this!”

And yes, some children skip the holding Mom’s hand stage and come flying onto the floor ready to conquer the world. 😂 We love those kids, too.

Every child begins differently. Our job is to meet them where they are and help them grow from there.

We’re currently accepting applications for new students across all five Valentin Karate campuses. Come try it free for 30 days and see what happens. ❤️

A pretty special night for the Gordon family! 🥋🖤

Congratulations to Jason and Sandra Gordon on passing their E Dan (2nd Degree Black Belt) test and to Aislin Gordon on passing her Sam Dan (3rd Degree Black Belt) test!

Three members of the same family reaching major Black Belt milestones together is something worth celebrating. Their hard work, dedication, and commitment to their training, Valentin Karate, and the WTSDA have been incredible to watch.

And the celebration is even bigger because yesterday was Aislin’s 16th birthday! 🎉🎂 What a way to celebrate!

Congratulations Gordon Family, we’re incredibly proud of all three of you! 👊🥋
