Waverly Fall Fest Canceled!
We want to let everyone know that this year’s Waverly Fall Fest has been canceled. As many of you know, Fall Fest has also been the home of our annual Break-A-Thon, and we know many members look forward to participating each year.
While we are disappointed by the cancellation of Fall Fest, we are currently exploring alternative options for hosting this year’s Break-A-Thon. Our goal is to continue this annual tradition in a way that is fun, engaging, and accessible for everyone.
We appreciate your patience as we work through the possibilities. We will share more information as soon as plans are finalized.
Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to bringing everyone together for this year’s Break-A-Thon in a new way.
Please Ensure Your Student’s Kicksite Account Information is Up-to-Date
We ask all parents and guardians to take a moment to review and update their student’s Kicksite account information. We’ve noticed a number of profiles are missing important contact information.
Please make sure the following information is current and accurate:
- Parent/guardian contact information
- Phone numbers and email addresses
- Emergency contact information
- Any other important details we should be aware of
Having accurate information on file allows us to quickly contact you in the event of an emergency and ensures that you continue receiving important updates, announcements, and school communications.
Additionally, please make sure that SMS opt-in is enabled on your account so you can receive text message notifications from us. We only use text messaging for important reminders, schedule updates, or class cancellation notices—we do not send marketing messages or unnecessary texts.
Please log in to your Kicksite account and review your student’s profile today. If you have any questions or need assistance updating your information, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.
Thank you for helping us keep our student records accurate!

However, only official Tioga Tae Kwon Do T-shirts are permitted as part of the uniform — no other T-shirts are permitted.

These classes are once a month and open to all black belt and provisional black belt students at no additional charge. This class focuses on advanced techniques, black belt forms, instructor training, and black belt philosophy.
Weapons Class

We’re excited to offer a monthly Weapons Class that is open to all students ranked Blue Belt and above—and the best part? There’s no additional charge to attend!
This class is a great opportunity to expand your martial arts skills, explore new techniques, and gain experience with traditional weapons in a safe and structured environment.

Don’t have weapons yet? No problem! We have nunchucks, Arnis sticks, and bo staffs available for students to borrow during the session.
Whether you’re just getting started or looking to sharpen your skills, we encourage all eligible students to take advantage of this fun and challenging class!
