Last testing at the gym 🥺 memories made.🥋💓 Congrats to Nicholas Dunbar for obtaining his 1st Degree Black Belt 🖤 and for Sterling aka our Bruce Lee 😉 for being promoted to his red/black.❤️🖤 Testing isn’t just about technique - it’s about heart, effort, and growth. Way to finish out strong!

Congratulations to Nicholas Dunbar on achieving your Black belt tonight. Your dedication and training paid off. Also congratulations to Sterling Rubin on your recommended Black belt. Your time, dedication and commitment are an example to everyone. It has been an honor having both of you in Class.

With a heavy heart I wanted to let you know we will be holding our final classes from now until May 15. If you have any questions, please send me a private message.

Sincerely,
Deann Faiferlick

With anticipated severe weather heading towards Fort Dodge this afternoon/evening, we have decided to cancel tonight’s martial arts class.
The safety of our students and their families is our number one priority. See you next week!

Beginning today we will no longer be having the Lil Champs class. I am sorry for the inconvenience. This decision was made due to attendance and instructor availability.

❤️🤍💙

Many people knew Justin Faiferlick as a member of the Fort Dodge unit of the Iowa Air National Guard.

Still others knew him as their martial arts and fitness instructor.

Regardless of what role they encountered him in, Faiferlick left a deep and positive impression on people.

“Justin is one of those people you look at and say “I hope my son can be like him one day,” said retired Lt. Col. Dick Breitbach, who was the commander of the Iowa Air National Guard’s 133rd Test Squadron in Fort Dodge.
