Champions Martial Art Borough Park

My first AAU Taekwondo Tournament as a referee! 🥋
This was an incredible experience and a great opportunity to work alongside outstanding referees from Texas, Florida, New York, Maryland, and international officials from Colombia, Mexico, and Puerto Rico.

I’m truly grateful to my colleagues on the CMA Referee Team for all their support, and a very special thank you to Master Nadine Pace for her guidance, encouragement, and mentorship throughout this journey.

Looking forward to many more tournaments ahead! 🙏🥋

🥉 Congratulations to Gisell Ha on earning 3rd Place in Olympic Sparring at the 2026 AAU Taekwondo competition! Your hard work, determination, and fighting spirit paid off. We are so proud of you—this is just the beginning. Keep kicking, keep believing, and keep shining! 💪🥋

🚨 WE ARE CLOSED 🚨

Champion Martial Arts will be closed from today through July 5th as we send off one of our own to compete at Nationals! 🥋🔥

Until then, let’s rally behind Gisell as she puts in the work to bring home the gold 🥇✨ Every kick, every rep, every late practice has led to this moment. We’re cheering you on every step of the way!

Go get it, Gisell! 💪🏆

🥋 STUDENT SPOTLIGHT 🥋

Huge congrats to Bekzod on graduating 5th grade and moving on to middle school! 🎓

When Bekzod started training with us back in August 2022, he was quiet and kept to himself. Almost 4 years later, that same kid steps on the mat and gives it everything he’s got, every single time. He’s louder, more confident, more a part of this Champion Martial Arts family than ever.

Red-tip belt earned. Never gives up. That’s Bekzod. 🔥

We are so proud of the young man you’re becoming, Bekzod. Middle school is lucky to have you, go give it everything you gave the mat. 👏

This past Juneteenth, we spent time together at CMA Instructor & Master Bootcamp to prepare, reflect, and learn as a community. It was truly an amazing experience for Master Ha, Instructor Blanca Paola, and future instructor Arturo.
We’re grateful for every moment of connection, growth, and education this day brought to our dojang. Thank you to the entire CMA team.
Here’s to continuing to learn and grow — together. 🙏
