SPRING
INVITATIONAL A
SUCCESS!
Saturday, May
31, 2008 the
Christian
Martial Artist
Coalition, Inc.
held its 1st
ever Benefit
Tournament at
Morrison United
Methodist
Church,
Leesburg,
Florida. With
only
approximately
50 competitors,
it was small,
but very fun.
Many exclaimed
their excitement
at the
opportunity of
gaining
competition
experience in a
"Christian
Environment."
14 Sensei's
from around
Florida
participated in
the
Referee/Judging
of the event.
Although it was
small the event
still made money
for CMAC,INC.
sponsorship of
those students
who NEED martial
arts training.
Sponsors who
made the event
possible were;
Cecil Clark
Chevrolet
Center State
Bank
Lassiter Ware
Insurance
Leesburg Evening
Rotary Club
Classic Colors
of Central
Florida
The next
event is
tentatively
scheduled in
October 2008.
Below is an
e-mail I
received
recently
Sensei Adams,
Today while
playing with the
neighborhood
kids, Kacie
Majeed, who is 7
years old, was
confronted by an
older boy who
appeared to be
about 10 or 11
years old. He
decided to
disrupt the
games being
played by the
other kids. He
grabbed Kacie
from behind and
pinned her arms
down. Kacie
immediately
kicked her leg
backward and hit
him in the
private area
with her foot
and the big kid
dropped her
immediately. She
then stomped on
his foot. He
then tried to
grab her again
and Kacie bit
him on his arm.
She saw her
chance to get
away and ran
home screaming
mommy, mommy,
all the way
home. This was
her first
experience being
held and bullied
like this and I
was proud of her
for defending
herself and
seizing the
moment to
run away. The
outcome of this
fight and her
ability to
defend herself
and get away is
a direct result
of the training
she received
from you at
Family Karate
Center.
Thank you
Again!
