Thanks to YOU,
The 2009 JW Spring Classics
Was A HUGE Success!
Some of the Black Belts Who attended The JW Spring Classics Martial Arts Tournament and Birthday Celebration
On Saturday, May 2, 2009, Kwanjang Wyatt hosted his annual JW Spring Classics Martial Arts Tournament, at Oxon Hill Senior High School, in Oxon Hill, Maryland. Once again, the event was a HUGE success, not only because of the more than 300 competitors, but because of the AWESOME competitor talent.
The Black Belts came out and gave fantastic support, which allowed us to finish the tournament at 2:30 p.m. As you know, we always try to keep the competition prices low for those who pre-registered early. There were also special low prices for spectators which is why the stands were filled with moms, dads and a host of others.
The competitors were very impressed with the new "Official" JW Spring Classics Trophy, which is a beautiful, sturdy, but smaller trophy that was designed expressly for this event. There were also several vendors selling everything from custom made ink pens to all types of martial arts equipment.
Competitors from all across the Mid-Atlantic Region, including New York, New Jersey, Virginia, Delaware, North Carolina, Connecticut, West Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia and represented such schools and organizations like: Jakara University of Martial Arts, Black BElt School of Martial Arts, Upper Marlboro Martial Arts, UMAC, Victory Martial Arts, Kim Studio, Elkins Karate Center, The Avengers, The Black Belt Academy, The Shoguns, Murray's Okinawan Karate Do, American Karate Academy, Klotz Institute of Martal Arts, Annapolis Martial Arts Academy, Black Tiger Dojang, Spirit of Excellence Martial Arts, Five Star Martial Arts Academy, Charlie Neal's Tae Kwon Do, Wong's Chinese Boxing Association, Viper Strike Tae Kwon Do, Simba Dojang, Daka II, Dojang, Full Circle Martial Arts Academy, Catholic University Tae Kwon Do Club, Blake's Universal Martial Arts, Bethany Karate Academy, Cobra Dojang, Triple Action Martial Arts, Total Balance Martial Arts, Universal Korean Martial Arts Academy, Golden Sun Dojo, Dennis Brown's Shaolin WuShu Academy, David Oakley's World Champion Karate, DC Self Defense Academy, Advance Martial Arts Academy, The DC Dragons, Ponders' School of Martial Arts, The Wheel Kickers, The House of Kat Sho Du, Tolson's Okinawan Karate Do, Jack Dark Tae Kwon Do, Jook Lim Tong Leong Tzee Wei Kuen, and so many more.
