❤️

Some back-to-school motivation for your young ones (or for yourself if you need it) 🥰

This works for everyone, regardless of gender!

Happy International Non‑Binary People’s Day!

Today we celebrate the non‑binary people who make our communities brighter, stronger, and more compassionate.

Whether you identify as non‑binary, genderqueer, genderfluid, or outside the binary in any way — your identity is valid, your voice matters, and your presence makes a difference.

Let’s keep uplifting non‑binary stories, advocating for safety and inclusion, and creating spaces where everyone can live as their full selves.

💛🤍💜🖤 Sending love to all non‑binary friends, family, and community members today and every day.

As is our tradition, the dojo we'll be closed during spring break from Sunday through Friday, March 15-20th. Classes will resume on Saturday, March 21st. Please note that we will be open both Saturdays that bookend Spring break, the 14th and the 21st!

💙 THANK YOU for Making an Impact! 💙

🎉 Amplify Austin Day: We Did Great—Thank You! 🎉
Thanks to the generosity of our community, Sun Dragon had a strong Amplify Austin Day. Whether you donated, shared our message, or cheered us on, your support made a real difference.
This year, we raised $2,740 from 21 donors — with additional corporate matching funds on the way (not included in that total!).

Those funds will support:
✅ Five free Empowerment Self‑Defense classes
✅ Twelve months of karate class scholarships
✅ Ten free safety classes for local kids

These programs help build confidence, skills, and safety across Austin. We’re grateful to everyone who supported Sun Dragon and helped make this impact possible. 💙

🚨 Amplify Austin is LIVE—act now! 🚨

We have just 3 more hours to raise $8,000 to support Empowerment Self Defense and empowerment through martial arts, including protest safety training, back-to-school safety, and martial arts scholarships.

These skills help people show up prepared, confident, and grounded—creating safer, calmer spaces when our community gathers.

Give now, share widely, and help us reach our goal before time runs out:
