Hello Reader and family, Welcome to February! It’s hard to believe how quickly the year is moving, but we’re excited about what this month has in store for our students and families. February at Starworld is focused on Confidence—the kind that’s earned through preparation, consistency, and effort. Not the loud kind, and not the instant kind, but the kind that’s built over time by showing up, practicing with purpose, and learning how to handle challenges the right way. That’s the confidence that lasts. This month blends focused training with meaningful experiences. Students will continue sharpening their skills as they prepare for upcoming belt testing, participate in special activities, and take part in lessons that reinforce leadership and personal growth. It’s a strong balance of discipline, encouragement, and fun—very much by design. As you know by now, Starworld is about much more than simply being a martial arts academy. We are honored and proud to provide our students with outstanding karate-based physical education, but what we truly pride ourselves on is developing Black Belts as whole people. That means physical skill paired with confidence, respect, leadership, and emotional strength. Throughout February, students will also enjoy short weekly leadership videos featuring some of our very own SWAT Instructors. These students are leading by example, sharing lessons tied directly to confidence and character. And let’s be honest—these Black Belt leadership skills aren’t just for class. Our students use them every day, and they’ll continue to use them for the rest of their lives. As always, it’s truly our honor to have your family as part of the Starworld community. Thank you for the trust you place in us and for helping make our program as strong as it is—and continuing to grow better every month. To make things easy for you, we’ve placed all February schedules, activities, and student materials in two convenient locations on our website: • Event Calendar – featuring February events, school holiday closures, and important future dates, including 2026 Belt Test dates and locations: • Student Downloads – weekly Good Job Sheets, Coloring Sheets, and Mature Student worksheets that support our in-class lessons and monthly theme: We’re grateful for the opportunity to work with your child and your family, and we’re looking forward to a strong, confidence-building February together. Tang Soo! Master Williamson |
