Tupper Martial Arts Academy

Last week we concluded the July Martial Arts Camp at Alvin Parks and Recreation Department. This intensive program was 3 hours a day for a whole week, adding up to about a month and a half worth of regular classes. As always lots of fun and games included as well as wrapping up with a yellow belt test and board break for fulltime student Mark Richter.

Congratulations and great work to all who attended!

👀 Ever wonder what a day at K9 Sensei looks like? Our day starts early — dogs are greeted, fed, and ready for their morning training sessions by 7am. Every dog gets individual attention, structured activities, and plenty of love. By evening, they're happily tired and content. 🐾 This is more than a training facility — it's a community where dogs thrive. 📍 Bryan, TX | Book via the link in bio!

🐾 Training Tip Tuesday: Mastering the 'Sit' Command! 'Sit' is the foundation of everything in dog training. Here's how to nail it:

1️⃣ Hold a treat close to your dog's nose.
2️⃣ Slowly raise your hand — their bottom will lower naturally.
3️⃣ The moment they sit, say 'Sit!', reward, and praise.

Practice 5x in a row, 3x per day. Within a week, most dogs have it down solid. 🏆 Tag a friend whose dog needs to master 'sit'!

Supporting Our Community, One Backpack at a Time!

This morning, July 27, 2026, Alvin Parks & Recreation was honored to take part in Alvin ISD's Operation Backpack, helping deliver 94 backpacks filled with school supplies to local students in need.

We are proud to partner with our community to help students start the new school year with the tools they need to succeed. Seeing the excitement on their faces is a reminder of what makes Alvin such a special place to live, work, and play.

A big thank you to Alvin ISD and everyone who helped make Operation Backpack possible. Together, we're making a difference—one student, one backpack, and one act of kindness at a time. ❤️📚
