Black Belt Test

Posted on February 2, 2024

We have a Black Belt test this Saturday, February 3, for six students who have put in a ton of time and effort to get to this point.

Because of this testing event, there will be NO open gym, Super Saturday, or stripe testing this week. If you’re available, we’d love to have you come and watch the test and support your fellow MPK students. It’s a great opportunity to see a demonstration of the entire curriculum, from White Belt to Black Belt. The test this Saturday begins at 10:30 am — we hope to see you there!

MPK Snow Day Policy (Important!)

Posted on January 8, 2024

Due to the Winter Storm Warnings, our morning Total Fitness Training will be cancelled on Tuesday, Jan. 9.

And with the very high possibility that Tuesday, 1/9 will be a snow day, it’s important to revisit our Snow Day Policy. Our policy is simple: if the school’s are closed, we are closed. This will include After School, Evening Classes, and Total Fitness Training…

December Notes, Testing, Ninja Night…

Posted on December 12, 2023

We have a lot of students who have worked really hard to get ready to test for their next belt during the week of December 18. To be eligible to test, students must have earned all their colored stripes and received a permission slip (Little Kicker and Junior students).

Due to the testing schedule, we will not have regular classes on Monday 12/18, Wednesday 12/19, or Thursday 12/20. Instead, only those students who are testing will come at their designated test time. We will have an Open Gym opportunity for all students, and Tuesday night sparring classes will be held at the normal times. Please see the schedule below for details.

Information for testing students:

  • All students who are testing need to be in their full uniform with both pants and top and should arrive about 15 minutes early.
  • Students who are testing for a black or white striped belt do not have a test fee.
  • Students who are promoting to the next solid color belt have a test fee that can be paid on the app in the Shop section or by using this link: Belt Test Fee
