Happy Anniversary… 25 Years And Counting!
By Professor Brumitt
Can you believe it? Maybe not! It was 25 years ago this month that Tri-Star Martial Arts Academy was born. Wow, a quarter of a century. Half of my life even. Yes, I am 50 years old.
It all started in the gym at Shabonna Grade School. Until we built enough of a student body to move into a storefront on Stebbings Court in Bradley.
Actually, if you look out our back door over the wooden fence you can see the location. It’s the one that is on the right-hand side of the laundry mat.
We were there for two years until we ran out of room and moved to our current location. The only student who is left from that second location is Professor Beane. Who started with me at the age of 11.
I have personally worked with over five thousand students in that time frame. Probably more. Boy, I wish I would have kept an exact count.
I have taught students from the age of three years old to my oldest student ever, who is still training at seventy-five years old. It has truly been such an honor and privilege.
Whether they have stayed for just three months or in Professor Beane’s case stayed 24 years, I hope that I and all our staff have made a profound positive impact on their lives.
As I write this, I think back to what some people might call, “the good old days”, and while I do believe they were good, I look forward to the next 25 years as being the “GREAT old days”.
Which you are now a part of. You are with us at the beginning of the next GREAT 25 years of Tri-Star Martial Arts Academy. You are helping us to make history now! So, thank you so much.
“Like a well-executed kata, life’s challenges become a dance of strength, balance, and grace when faced with a focused mind.”
Arianna - Age 10
I have been at Tri-Star for close to on and a half years. I started because my brother and cousin did martial arts. I thought I would give it a try and I liked it. Tri-Star has helped me become stronger, successful, and a better leader.
My goal is to become a black belt. My goal with school is to get straight A’s. I want to be a martial arts teacher or principal when I grow up.
The most important thing my instructors have taught me is my forms. I love them!

Good To Know...
Give your Body a Break!
Your body has a lot to think about. It can do wonderful, miraculous things.
Provide you with the energy you need. Fight off sickness. Allow you to think clearly.
Your body can do a lot…but it is a sensitive, complicated mechanism.
It requires sleep, exercise, and feeding.
And, it functions best when it gets these things on a regular schedule.
Let’s say you have an irregular sleep schedule. Your body gets tired. One internal part says to the other, ‘Hey, last night we went to sleep at ten. It’s almost midnight! I wonder when he’s going to bed?’
Another body part says, ‘Gee…I hope he’s not going to pull another all-nighter, like he did last month.’
The same conversation takes place regarding exercise, hydration, and eating.
If you keep your body on a regular schedule…eating, sleeping, and exercising at the same time each day, it can relax…and go about it’s normal job: keeping you fit, sickness-free, energetic, and clear-headed.
