All first responders and their loved ones are invited to check out these classes. Just for you

Academy of Martial Arts, Beneath the Badge, and Full Court Custom Apparel are excited to share a unique opportunity for our local first responders and their spouses - a PRIVATE Tang Soo Do class offered EXCLUSIVELY to first responders and their spouses.

The class will be taught by our neighbor, Tom Yennie, who is an experienced instructor. Tom approached us with this idea after reading our book because he is passionate about helping first responders. He is also planning a study based on the class to take his findings to the national organization, hoping to expand this initiative nationwide.

Where: Academy of Martial Arts Studio, Stewartville, MN.

Cost: The training is free until the testing required to advance rank. Participants can then decide if they wish to continue, which would require becoming a paid member.

If you have ever wondered about the benefits of martial arts, this a great opportunity to see what it’s about.

A martial arts ICON. He taught us all so much

It is with heavy hearts that our family shares the sudden passing of our beloved Chuck Norris yesterday morning. While we would like to keep the circumstances private, please know that he was surrounded by his family and was at peace.

To the world, he was a martial artist, actor, and a symbol of strength. To us, he was a devoted husband, a loving father and grandfather, an incredible brother, and the heart of our family.

He lived his life with faith, purpose, and an unwavering commitment to the people he loved. Through his work, discipline, and kindness, he inspired millions around the world and left a lasting impact on so many lives.

While our hearts are broken, we are deeply grateful for the life he lived and for the unforgettable moments we were blessed to share with him. The love and support he received from fans around the world meant so much to him, and our family is truly thankful for it. To him, you were not just fans, you were his friends.

We know many of you had heard about his recent hospitalization, and we are truly grateful for the prayers and support you sent his way.

As we grieve this loss, we kindly ask for privacy for our family during this time.

Thank you for loving him with us.

With love,
The Norris Family
