CCK Martial Arts

5 of the 10 grapplers that participated in last weekend’s tournament. It’s no secret that we are a small school and do not focus solely on BJJ, so we were thrilled to have this many kids and teens participate especially after being away from it for over a year. Events like this not only test skills, they also teach life lessons and create team bonding. This was the largest group we have ever taken to a grappling tournament, and for most, it was their first one which can be intimidating. Conquering that alone deserves commendation. Finding out that we placed first with team points in both the gi and no gi divisions was an exciting surprise, as we have never been in the position to do so before. But the biggest take away, was in seeing that each and every one of our competitors contributed points from at least one of their matches, and that feels awesome! Great job everyone!

It felt great to get back into the competition scene today with such an awesome group of kids and teens. It has been a year and a half since we have been able to attend an event such as this, and we have definitely missed it. Thank you to the Goodfight organization for putting forth the work needed to follow Covid guidelines that made this possible. For most of our competitors, this was a first-time experience, and we could not be happier with their performance, effort, camaraderie, and good sportsmanship. So proud of all of them!! An extra thank you to Damian for volunteering his time to help with coaching!! Great job guys and girls!!

We would like to acknowledge and congratulate Damian for placing second in his weight class at the Carroll County High School Wrestling Championships today. Not the typical season, but with the modifications made this year, it was fun to see some county competition over live stream. Great job on a successful season, Damian! See you back around here next week!

Happy New Year! 2020 was a year like no other, and as the holiday season comes to a close, we want to thank our students and families for seeing us through. For almost 18 years, our goal has always been to make a positive difference by teaching something we strongly believe in and to do so in a comfortable, family-like environment. Through those years, we have connected with some wonderful people, and while we look forward each week to seeing and working with our current students, it is also fun to catch up with those who have moved on or learn what our former junior students have accomplished in their adult lives. In a recent, unexpected conversation with one of our first members, he shared that some of his fondest memories were from his time with our school. It was so nice to hear especially during such questionable times. This past year has presented some unique challenges for all of us, and during those unsure moments, when we didn’t know how things would go, we were the ones receiving encouragement…kind words, loyalty and patience through the Zoom/Facebook months and beyond, messages, cards and thoughtful gestures to thank us for what we do, new students who in turn bring more new students, former students who have returned,.... During the most unpredictable year since we opened our first set of doors, we have counted our blessings through the sincerely supportive actions of our students, current and former. Thank you so much! We wish you all good health and happiness in 2021!!

Happy Birthday Shoutout to the man in charge!! Have a great day Mr. Mike!!

Last week, we welcomed our newest member to CCK Martial Arts. She’s been a big hit with the kids!! #penny

Flashback Friday. Goodfight’s Thanksgiving Throwdown 2019...always a fun event!! We will really miss attending this year, but look forward to returning to these competitions sometime in 2021. In the meantime, we remain so grateful for our families who support us as we continue to navigate through these ever changing times...new, returning, and those who have been with us for the long haul 😊
