Black Belt Testing
Black Belt Testing is right around the corner! Black Belt Testing is a six hour testing where students will be given the hardest test of their Sky Martial Arts life.
Students that are testing are required to dress in their full uniform. They are to bring all their sparring gear (do not forget your mouth piece), nunchucks, and the required boards that they will be breaking. Please pack your own water. A small lunch will be provided.

Please note that Black Belt Testing is a private event and that no spectators will be allowed during testing.

Red Advanced Students

Color Belt Testing is scheduled one day ahead of Black Belt Testing.
FOR ALL RED ADVANCED BELTS WHO HAVE NOT YET GOTTEN ALL THREE TIPS:
This will be your last chance to get all the tips required in order to test for your Danbo in this Black Belt Testing. If you are unable to get the remaining tips, you will have to wait another 6 months before the next Black Belt Testing.

THE LAST DAY TO TURN IN BLACK BELT TESTING APPLICATIONS IS THE NIGHT OF COLOR BELT TESTING, THE NIGHT BEFORE BLACK BELT TESTING. NO APPLICATIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED ON THE DAY OF TESTING.

Poomsae and Sparring Seminar

Sky Martial Arts will be hosting a four hour long seminar that will be focusing on both Poomsae and Sparring. This seminar will focus on the correct execution of each movement allowing the students to become much better competitors. The forms and movements will be taught on an International level by our Master Joseph and Master Andrew.

There will also be a sparring portion where the sport of Sparring will be broken down for all students so they may understand the game and how to win. There will be a focus on how students can win their sparring matches at tournaments and become gold medalist athletes. Please bring all your sparring gear to this seminar (DO NOT FORGET YOUR MOUTH PIECE).
The funds raised for this event are going to help fund for GrandMaster’s trip to Malaysia for an International Referee Seminar which is required for our Grandmaster to retain his seating as the USA-T Chair.

Summer Camp Session 1 & 2

Summer is coming up and so is our annual Summer Camps. The first summer camp will have a primary focus on poomsae while the second session will have a primary focus on sparring and discipline. Each session must be paid for separately. If you sign up during the month of May, you will receive a $100 discount leaving the price to be at $299 versus $399 for registrations during June.
Lunch will be provided everyday. Master Andrew will be the lead instructor. Students are required to bring their uniform everyday. Students who participate in Summer camp may be given an opportunity to double test for their next belt if they show good attitude and hard work.
