🏆 22 FIRSTS. 1 SECOND. 3 GRAND CHAMPIONS. 🏆

Six members of Team Bushido made the trip to Adairsville, Georgia, today, entering a combined 23 divisions.

They came home with 22 FIRST-PLACE MEDALS 🥇 and one second 🥈

Forget flipping the pyramid. Team Bushido pretty much erased it today.

And they weren't finished.

🏆 Carson Farris earned the Beginner Grand Championship.

🏆 Blake Mether earned the Advanced Grand Championship.

🏆 Jaxon Matthews earned his FIRST-EVER Black Belt Grand Championship, winning a runoff against the four other 13-and-under black belt division winners.

🥋Zoey Payne, Eli Hancock, and Renley Martin also went undefeated on the day, winning every division they entered. They simply didn't have enough division entries to qualify for the underbelt Grand Championship. 🔥

Six competitors.
23 divisions.
22 wins.
Three Grand Champions.

That's a pretty good day for Team Bushido. ❤️🖤🥋

We are proud to present our newest Black Belt .... Mr. Jaxon Matthews.

Jaxon set a goal when he first started “karate school.” Never once did his determination waiver. He knew the path was long and full of challenges. He faced each one with the same confidence he had on Day 1.

During his training, he progressed through physical skills methodically. His biggest challenge may have been learning to lead instead of compete. But he faced it with the same force he used to face each physical milestone - with no doubts.

Jaxon approached this week with that same confidence. He has spent years preparing for this and spent the last several months focusing on what it would take to be successful in this moment. He came to his final test knowing exactly what was needed for this next, big step.

And today, after a lot of work, a lot of sweat, and more effort than many are willing to give, he can claim, what many never will — the title .....

Jaxon Matthews, Black Belt.

Congratulations, “Mississippi” - we are EXTREMELY proud of you!
