I couldn’t have been more proud of all the hard work, dedication, and time you put into getting ready. You all represented not only the art but the school on the highest level. Believe me, I know getting up in front of Black Belt board of examiners and Mr. Mills is no easy task. Well done!
Photos will be posted in the next couple of days.
Please join me in congratulating everyone who tested by leaving a comment below!

"When I came to Arrowhead Martial Arts the first time and saw that many people are starting at, or over, my age helped me realize that you dont have to be a kid to begin taking martial arts lessons Its more personalized than any martial arts studio i’ve seen….no getting lost in the crowd! its a comfortable learning environment. Its a place where you expect more and more of yourself because of the quality of the instructors. I love this studio!" - Heather Shaw
Congratulations to everyone! And thanks to Mr. Wheaton and all of the other instructors that were willing to spend extra time on Saturdays to help us prepare.
Congratulations to all who participated in the test in Evanston last weekend. You have all stepped it up immensely in the last few months and these new belts should be a shining example of all your hard work and dedication. Well done! Keep it up.
Camp was awesome, as always! I’m so happy for all those who participated and were promoted. I also want to thank all our instructors who willingly and happily share their time, talent, and knowledge so that we, their students, can also learn and grow in the art. You truly are inspirational leaders. Thank you so much!
Congrats to all who tested! It was well deserved! Keep up the good work, and dedication. It is surely paying off!
I’m glad our Saturday sessions helped!
