Breaking Week, February 9-13

February 9 - February 13

Green belts and up (all ranks Adult/Teen class) will be breaking boards in classes February 9 – 13th. Board breaking allows students to expand their training by testing techniques on a simulated opponent. The concept being that good technique will break a board. 

Boards may be ordered through Kickside in bundles of 25 through the KickShop and delivered to the corresponding location on the first day of breaking week. Details on sizes, grain direction and other breaking tips are available on the board breaking page. (Little Kickers and White-Sr. Yellow Belts may order 1/2″ boards in bundles of 3)

Note: Brown belts and above will need to bring boards for breaking at their testings. Please factor this in when buying boards.

**Do not put boards in your gear bag because they will damage it. Instead, bring them in a less expensive shopping bag**
