1)
Just to let everyone know who will be at FCMA on sunday for the black belt class, I will be accepting pre-registrations then.
If you are not going to be there, saturday is the last day, price goes up afterwards.

2)
Friday night's open class is now going to be from 7 - 8:30, Mrs. C wanted to do an hour and a half for sparring. There will be lots of drinking and eating afterwards.

3)
It is also going to be a dress down for that class as well. You will need a cup and other protective gear, but no uniform required.
Just make sure your uniform is nice and clean the rest of the
weekend!

4)
Please make sure you let us know when you sign up if you are coming to dinner saturday night, that way we will have enough room for everyone to eat, sit, talk and relax.

Thank you, I am looking forward to seeing you all soon.

Just a remnider that firday night's class is a bonus class for everyone attending this weekend's event. It is also a non-uniform class, and that it will be from 7:00 to 8:30 pm.
Make sure you have all your protective gear because it is a sparring class with Mrs. Doreen Cogliandro.

I talked with a few people this week who were still thinking about coming or who have just heard of this event, so anyone still interested who has not yet signed up, the early rate will still apply.
Just let us know.

Zach just got in and is very excited about teaching his Counterpoint this weekend. See you soon!

..to all the Instructors and to all the participants who came out last weekend to our Martial Arts Odyessy!

This was the best one yet, and I can see it getting even stronger next year.
Right now we are finalizing some dates, but it seems almost certain we will have the same line up for next year.

I hope eveyone had as good a time as I did.
It was simply awesome, and inspiring.

We could not have done it without all of you!

Thank you once again.
