November & December 2026
Training • Community • Student Success • What’s Next
As we move into the final two months of 2026, we are focused on finishing the year with intention. We have one more tournament opportunity, a new student to welcome, Saturday kickboxing previews, and several studio closings to keep on the calendar.
Thank you to every family, student, and community partner who has helped PTC Zone grow this year. Your effort, referrals, reviews, and continued support make this small-group community possible.
Consistent tuition allows us to maintain the studio, keep our classes intentionally small, and continue providing the personal instruction our students deserve—even during months affected by holidays and school breaks.
Thank you for continuing to train with us and support what we are building at PTC Zone.

Women’s Kickboxing Preview Sessions
The full Women’s Kickboxing Program will now begin next year, but you do not have to wait until January to get a preview.
Saturday Morning Drop-Ins
Preview sessions begin Saturday, November 14, at 9:30 AM. Each drop-in session is only $10, and advance booking is required.
These sessions are a welcoming way to try practical kickboxing, fitness, and confidence-building training before the full program launches next year.
What to Bring
Bring your own boxing gloves if you have them. If you need a pair, you may order 12-ounce pink gloves through the studio for $25.
Space is limited, so please reserve your session in advance. Same-day booking is not available.
Student Spotlight
Every new student brings new energy to the studio. This month, we are happy to welcome someone who has made a strong first impression.
Welcome, Khazir S.
Khazir had a great Starter Journey, and we hope he continues growing with us. He is currently training in our Tuesday and Thursday classes, and we look forward to seeing him explore even more opportunities at PTC Zone.
Welcome to the PTC Zone family, Khazir. Keep showing up, asking questions, and building on the strong start you have made.
A Strong Start Is Only the Beginning
Confidence grows when effort becomes a habit.
The Starter Journey is not about being perfect on day one. It is about learning the rhythm of training, becoming comfortable with challenges, and taking the next step with purpose.
Training Update
More Self-Defense & Sparring
As we increase opportunities for self-defense and controlled sparring in class, all students will need sparring gear.
For in-class sparring, the minimum required equipment is a pair of approved gloves. Students who plan to compete in future tournaments will need a complete set of approved protective gear.
PTC Zone can help members order equipment at competitive prices through our martial arts vendors.
Finish the Year Strong
Holiday schedules can interrupt routines, but progress does not require perfection. Pay tuition on time, attend the classes you can, practice a little at home, and return ready to keep building.
Competition remains optional. Every student belongs here, whether their goal is tournament experience, fitness, confidence, self-defense, or personal growth.
Please Pre-Book Your Classes
Advance booking helps us prepare better classes, manage attendance, schedule activities, and make room for new programs. Same-day booking is not available, so please reserve your session at least one day in advance.
Help PTC Zone Grow
PTC Zone is intentionally a small studio. That allows us to know our students, provide individual attention, and create a place where no one gets lost in the crowd. Small studios grow through the support of their communities.
Leave a Google Review
Thank you to everyone who has already left us a review. Your words help new families discover PTC Zone and understand what makes our programs different.
Bring a Friend Wednesday
Know a child, family member, friend, neighbor, or coworker who might enjoy martial arts? Invite them to try a class with you on any Wednesday.
Sometimes the best new student is simply someone who needs an invitation through the door.
What Else Would You Like to See?
We are looking to expand the youth programs offered at PTC Zone and connect with instructors whose work complements our mission.
If you know an instructor, trainer, or youth-focused program that needs a welcoming space to teach classes, please share our Community Partner page with them. We want the studio to become a place where young people can train, learn, create, compete, and grow.
Looking Ahead
We are continuing to renovate and update parts of the studio. Please pardon the mess while we make the space better for our students, families, and growing community of programs.
We are also preparing for the full Women’s Kickboxing Program next year, expanding youth opportunities, and continuing the partnerships that allow PTC Zone to serve beyond our own walls.
As 2026 comes to a close, take a moment to recognize the progress made through every class, every difficult drill, and every decision to keep going. We are proud of what our students have accomplished, and we are excited about what we can build together in 2027.
Thank you for being part of PTC Zone—and for growing with us.
