On April 26th, 20 students from our Martial Arts Program participated in the Bryan Hawkins Tournament. Their performance exceeded all expectations, resulting in an impressive 25 medals earned!

Each participant showed incredible commitment, courage, and determination—many overcoming their fears and nervousness to step onto the mat. While not everyone reached the podium, the experience itself was a powerful victory. The lessons learned and the personal growth achieved are truly medals for life.

Following the tournament, students had the opportunity to reflect and share their experiences in class—planting the seeds for future competitions and identifying areas for improvement.
