Announcements
Tuesday, November 11, 2025
Today we have some announcements regarding our upcoming schedule, promotion tests, billing, and more.
​
1. No class today, Tuesday, November 11, in honor of Veterans Day. Happy Veterans Day! Thank you to all those who have served our country. 🇺🇸 Westchase Park + Recreation Center is closed, and so we will not have classes this evening.
2. Our December and January schedule is now available to view. We will be closed for several dates in December and January. You can view our calendar online here.
In January, we'll close for two weeks because I'm getting married! Many of you have seen Mr. Joel, the Yellow belt in our Mondays, Tuesdays, and Saturday classes. He and I were childhood best friends, and we reconnected this year when I visited Guam over the summer. We got engaged in August and will be getting married on January 23rd, 2026. We'll close for the week of our wedding and a week after for a quick trip. Thank you for those who have wished us well!

3. December and January billing. Because of the our upcoming closures, I will pause monthly billing for December/January and provide details on how to pay ahead for only our open dates in December and January. Our normal schedule will resume beginning February 1st, so we can resume our monthly billing then. Please look out for a text or email from me in the next few days regarding this.
​
4. Upcoming Promotion Tests. We have three upcoming Promotion Tests:
Westchase
Tuesday, December 16th at 7pm (After the 6:15 class)
​
Northdale
Saturday, December 20th
-
12:30pm (Junior Belts, before the 1pm Class)
-
2:15pm (Regular Belts)
​
When making Promotion Test evaluations, I consider the following:
-
Knowledge and Mastery of Kicks
-
Knowledge and Mastery of Required Poomsae
-
Class attendance
-
Class participation, effort, attitude, behavior
-
Extra efforts (practicing before class, participation in tournaments, practicing at home)
-
Improvement and growth from last Promotion Test.
​
In the next few weeks I will send an email or text invitation to test as I make evaluations.
​
5. Class reminders.
-
I welcome everyone to arrive a few minutes before class time to get settled, practice, and take advantage of our full class time.
-
We have classes on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Saturdays. If you're interested in attending more classes during the week, please let me know.
-
Sparring Gear may only be purchased through me – please refrain from using outside equipment during class. If you're interested in purchasing, please let me know.
-
You may text me at (813) 336-2053 at any time if you have questions or concerns, or to let me know if you won't make it to class.
​
Thank you for all your continued support. Stay warm today!

Cheers,
Master Michelle Caluag
