🎒 Back-to-School Party! 🥋

Our Back-to-School Party was a great success! We had an awesome evening filled with fun, excitement, and great memories together.

A big thank you to all of our students who continued training, working hard, and staying committed throughout the summer. We hope you had a wonderful summer and are ready for a new school year filled with learning, growth, and new achievements!

As you head back to school, remember to stay healthy, stay focused, work hard, and always believe in yourself. The same confidence, discipline, and perseverance you develop in martial arts can help you succeed in the classroom and beyond.

And most importantly, thank you to all of our parents and families for your continued support and trust. We are grateful for the opportunity to teach martial arts, build confidence and character, and make a positive difference in the lives of our students.

We are proud of all of you and look forward to another great school year together! 🥋📚

🥋 August Belt Testing Complete! 🥋

Congratulations to all of our students who tested this month!

We’re proud of the hard work, focus, and perseverance everyone showed as they demonstrated their skills and took another step forward in their martial arts journey.

Every new belt represents hours of practice, challenges overcome, and continued growth both inside and outside the dojang.

Great job to everyone who tested, and thank you to all of our families for supporting our students along the way!

Keep training. Keep improving. Keep moving forward! 👊

The following message was originally shared by Master Matt of our Chung's Martial Arts Forest Hill location. We believe it is important enough to share with our entire Chung’s Martial Arts community.

This is a post I wish I didn't have to make and have struggled for the past two weeks whether or not to post it. I'm sure that many of you have seen this story. What you may not know is that the girl attacked was one of our Black Belt competition fighters. As you know, our little school is like a family, and I was so angry and upset that this could happen to a student that I care for and have trained for years- someone who is one of the most helpful, hard-working, and kind-hearted kids I have ever taught. Of course, my first reaction was to wish I could have been there to give this monster the hardest head kick I have ever thrown. But the hard truth we protective adults need to face is that we won't always be there. After my initial anger, I felt grateful that she is safe and super proud how she handled the situation. She fought back, she yelled for help, she ran away, and she reported- and he is now behind bars. Who knows what would have happened if he would have grabbed a different 110 lbs. girl that night- she might not have escaped, and he might not have been caught. THIS is why training and awareness are so important. This student is not only trained- but she doesn't know how to give up. We try to shelter the people we care about, but there are monsters in the shadows that we can only hope our people never experience. And while I'm still so sad that it was someone I care about- I'm also relieved she was prepared.
Please talk to your kids. Get them into a reputable martial arts program. It doesn't have to be our program but get them trained. We already had a women's and girl's self-defense seminar planned for August 29th. This is so important to me that I've decided to make this event free for everyone and will refund the payment for anyone who pre-registered. You can sign up with this link: https://cp.mystudio.io/e/?=champion/2012/843063//1784293978 There won't be any commitment to join or even sales pitch.
If you feel like you would like to pay and have the means, please instead make a donation to https://www.joyfulheartfoundation.org/, which provides support to victims of sexual assault, as well as child abuse. Thank you for reading.
-Master Matt

I fully support Master Matt’s message. We are grateful that this student is safe, and we are extremely proud of the courage, awareness, and determination she showed. Please take the time to speak with your children about personal safety and the importance of being prepared.
– Master Chung

Proud of our April belt testers! 🥋

Belt testing is always a special reminder of what our students are building each week. Focus, confidence, discipline, respect, and the ability to keep going when something is challenging.

We are proud of every student who stepped onto the mat, gave their best effort, and showed the progress they have made through consistent training.

Keep training hard and growing one day at a time!

More from our April Black Belt Testing 👊

The first post captured the moment. These photos show the work that went into it.

From forms to sparring to breaking, every student had to perform under pressure and demonstrate years of training.

This group included students testing for 1st Dan (1st Degree Black Belt), 2nd Dan, 3rd Dan, and a 2nd Dan in Haidong Gumdo. A huge accomplishment that reflects their consistency and dedication.

We’re so proud of the effort and focus of each student!🥋🔥
