Academy Combat Classic Tournament, November 8, 2008
(Click here for full details)

Our 2008 training Camp was outstanding!

We had a tremendous group of dedicated and highly skilled instructors as well as a great assembly of student participants! There were no pretenders at this event!

Pictures of the Camp instructors and their training sessions can be found here.

As if this weren't enough, we also had several AWESOME demos at our Dinner. What a great way to get together in the spirit of the Martial Arts! This was truly a great event!

If you have pictures from the Camp or the Dinner, please send them to us so we can post selected ones here!
