There will be a Open House on Saturday, 31 March from 6-8pm at the school. Similar to our Grand Re-opening, we will be offering snacks, drinks, special rates for new students, demonstrations, and prizes for all in attendance. This is a great chance to meet some of the owners and instructors of Lee’s, and ask any question you might have. Open to everyone, so please plan on attending!

We are conducting our FREE monthly 1 Hour Women’s Self Defense class at Lee’s Martial Arts on Friday, March 30th at 6:00 p.m.. This is open to the public as well as current female students.  This is a great opportunity to learn some basic techniques on how to stay safe.

The photos from the February test has been added to our Photos Gallery! Parents/students, if you want full size copies of any of the uploaded photos (or a entire album/event), please contact your instructors and they’ll pass the request on to the appropriate person. We encourage you to contact us instead of just downloading what’s on the web, since the uploaded photos have been reduced in size to save space. If you are going to print the pictures or use them as wallpaper, it’s best to have the full quality photo!

Reminder, there will be a promotion test this Saturday, February the 11th, at 10:00 a.m. Testing students should be at the school and dressed by 9:30 a.m. to warm up and stretch before the test begins. If you are unsure whether or not you will be testing Saturday, please consult the posted list at the school or speak to your instructor.
