September is here and school has started! We can't believe it's been almost SIX months since we closed our doors. Yesterday the Governor announced that martial arts schools can carefully reopen with restrictions. This is the update we have been waiting for.
We miss training on the mats as much as our students do. But, we believe it's important to take a measured and careful approach to reopening. That said, we *won't* be back in the school this week for group classes.
3 Significant Ways to Improve Your Child's Wellness
Posted: May 31, 2021
Life is often hectic, and it can be easy to assume that everything is fine with your children's health as long as they aren't sick. However, just like for adults, good health for youngsters requires active planning. The following are three straightforward ways to improve children's wellness, presented by Master Chang’s Martial Arts.
Increase Fruit and Vegetable Consumption
Parents know that proper nutrition is essential for healthy growth. However, it is often difficult to ensure that kids eat right. If your child is a picky eater, sneaking vegetables into favorite meals is a surefire way to increase micronutrient consumption. Some parents avoid this technique because it does not encourage children to try new foods, but others see it as an opportunity to show kids that vegetables can be prepared in non-gross ways.

Reopen Plan Update
Posted: June 25, 2020
MCMA Students & Families,
Today it was announced that North Carolina will not start Phase 3 of the reopen plan for another 3 weeks. This moves our planned reopen date of June 29th out to July 20th.
While we are saddened that we won’t be able to hold in-person classes, we understand the reasoning and respect the state’s decision.
Reopen Update
Posted: May 31, 2020
MCMA Families,
I hope this message finds all of you healthy and safe. As of now, all North Carolina MCMA studios will remain closed for in-person classes. The earliest reopen date for gyms and fitness studios, including martial arts, is June 26th according to NC’s Phase 3 reopen plan.
We have been closely monitoring the situation in our community as well as guidance from state and federal health officials. Once we have the okay from the state government, and are confident in our safety plan, we will reopen for LIMITED in-person lessons and daily online lessons. Here is a basic outline of our plan.
