1.  GRADING RESULTS! 

March 27, 2008 - Congratulations to Dennis Tilton on earning his YELLOW BELT - Junior Grade.  Your hard work is evident in your progress, Dennis.  (see Dennis' photo in the Photo section). 

Congratulations to Brianna Burnett on earning two black stripes on her YELLOW BELT, and to Nicholas Wyka, on earning his first black stripe to his YELLOW BELT.

December 4, 2007 - Jasmine Signh (15), earned her GREEN BELT - Junior Grade, at a special grading.  Congratulations, Jasmine.  Your side kicks are rib cracking good! 

Congratulations to Collin Lake on earning his GREEN BELT - Junior Grade,  and to Michael H. Wyka, Jr., on earning his GREEN BELT - Senior Grade, at the Inverness Vadha school, Thursday, November 8, 2007. 

The VADHA School of Inverness held a general grading for it's Young Tigers Curriculum Thursday, November 8.  Congratulations to all of our students.  Master Alfons and I are extremely proud of each and every one.

The class was surprised and honored by a visit from Maha Master Jack McCrave who watched with great interest as the Inverness students sparred with all their hearts.  

Earning a belt in the Inverness VADHA School of Masters Michael Wyka and Alfons Bemmel is NOT easy.  It is not a belt you can earn by simply attending class for a month or two.  Our students work HARD for each and every belt and patch they earn. 

I am very proud and privileged to a part of their martial art journey.  Again, congratulations to each of you.
