Hello I hope that September, back to school newsletter finds you in good health and happy spirits. August was another GREAT month at the Nokado School of Self Defense. On August 20th we had an awesome Jr. Black belt test in the Northport Dojo and on August 25 the Cohen family did a magical performance on their Black belt test in the Kings Park Dojo.

I hope that all my students and parents are ready for back to school; the fall is a beautiful time of the year. I am looking forward to a super fall season at the Dojo and I hope that you are as well.
