Announcements and news from the Academy for all students

Hello Folks!
I’ve signed up for the Tufts 10k (for Women) and hoping others will follow suit. Heck, maybe we can have a team shirt or something dorky to stand out. It’ll take place on Monday, October 10 at noon. It’s Columbus Day, so many people have it off.
Even though they say it’s for women, I saw plenty of guys last year. So, if you are a dude and want to run but aren’t sure, do it for a special woman in your life–mom, sis, wife/gf, bff.
You can check out the website and registration here.
Let me know if you sign up!

Sorry, the nonconformist in me, too, wants to smash things at the mention of dress codes. For lack of a better phrase, though, that’s what we need to address.
This is a gentle reminder that all students in Krav Maga classes are asked to wear either a Krav Maga Worldwide shirt, a plain white shirt, or a plain black shirt. Krav shirts are available for purchase at the school or online from KMW-approved vendors. And don’t forget your clean, dry mat shoes!
If you’re ever in doubt about this or similar issues, please consult the Krav Maga FAQ or ask an instructor.
Thanks for your cooperation.
