The first quarter of 2019 continues to bring many exciting events to WKFA!

Summer is an excellent time to build strength, skill and flexibility.

Fall 2016 – What’s Happening at WKFA
In what seems like the blink of an eye, another summer has almost vanished. This year, the phenomenal weather likely contributed to that feeling. Many students at the school had excellent attendance through the summer and applied themselves to the curriculum outside of class time. I am confident they will be ready to advance to their next rank at the upcoming September grading.

Fall 2015 – What’s Happening at WKFA
Typically, I dedicate a portion of my column to provide a written recap of the prior three months. With a picture being worth a thousand words, let’s take this to the next level – I am very excited to announce the release of WKFA’s first annual yearbook! Our team worked really well together and had a lot fun capturing and documenting the year. So, enjoy flipping through photos our our year!…

Every time I sit down to write my column I’m amazed by everything that has occurred over the three months between writing! Right around when the last newsletter was sent, my family welcomed to the world our third child, Sarah Nicole. March Break featured our Five-Animal Camp under the guidance of Sifus Sydney, Sarah and Anne. Add to that the tournament season, lion dances and more!…
