Good morning! Today is the day, come on over to Jefferson Elementary for our other yearly Chon-Ji-hosted martial arts tournament. If you aren’t competing, bring along the kiddos or come by yourself to come spectate (there IS something to do on a random Saturday in March, and we love giving the Tri-Cities and surrounding communities somewhere to be). We are ecstatic to provide the only martial arts tournament by women, for women in the entire regional area. You can still register, if you decided to compete this morning. We get it girl, we’re all busy 😉

Master Lorraine Tucker-Reid (4th Dan) cordially invites you to attend her women-led, women-only tournament. Open to all martial arts disciplines.

We are in danger of being forced to cancel Battle on the Columbia this year. We have only had 15 registrations so far. I originally started Battle to have a truly open tournament that was as fair as I could make it. I have done that. Is there any other tournament, that hand chooses divisions on the spot? If Battle is going to happen I need 80 registrations by 7/2. Please register, the link for registration is in the comments. If we are forced to cancel, your registration will be refunded.
