Makowski's Martial Arts & Fitness

06/05/2026

Mr. Magill joined us for testing this week between graduating from U.S. Air Force Tech School and heading to his next assignment. The red rope on his shoulder designates him as a “Leader of Leaders.” Earning a red rope is relatively rare. Only a very small percentage of the total USAF Airman population earns that leadership recognition. Mr. Magill credits his martial arts training with us for his being prepared for over 90 percent of the physical and mental challenges he has been required to do in his military training. His discipline and black belt attitude, behavior, and ability are keys to his being chosen to wear the red rope as “Leader of leaders”.
Thank you for your service and leadership Sir.
