UMAA is proud of all of the hard work and dedication both our students put into this past weekend's event, Who's Who Championship hosted by the Black Dragons Dojo. Their achievements are no accident. These warriors earned everything they accomplished this past weekend. We had students compete and place in Kata and Kumite fighting. Every student brought home a hard earned metal from their impressive work. We are also proud of our sister dojos who also competing including Mountain Martial Arts and Rowen Colleges Martial Arts Club. The Rowen Martial Arts Club is led by our student Maddie Hicks who has showed an amazing level of leadership in rallying and preparing multiple students form different styles. Maddie also placed herself in the competition! One of the reasons we love the Black Dragons and their events is because of the opportunity they provide for Specials Needs students to compete. Both our School as well as the Black Dragons have a Specials Needs program and we were proud to see our students compete and Achieve together. The Black Dragons have gone a step further with their team positively being named, Team Achieve, led by Master GJ Torres JR. Big thanks to Sensei Bridget for also playing a huge part in helping with our Special Needs program and overall instruction. Another congratulations to all competitors from all schools who stepped up and gave it their own! These students are our future black belts and leaders in the community.
