Paragon was represented well with Tiffany Haag from Fort Collins, Joey and Grant Salazar from Stapleton, and Emma Adams, Tyler Weaver, and Master Horn for Evergreen.   Starting on Friday Morning, Ms. Adams had a great testing, soon she will get to take her 4th degree belt off the wall. Master Horn was next to compete;  winning both forms and sparing in the 6th degree masters division.  Then Mr. Weaver placed 3rd in traditional weapons, 2nd in creative forms, and 1st in XMA forms. Finishing off with Joey Salazar placing 3rd for forms and his brother Grant, 4th in forms. Congratulations to everyone from Paragon Martial Arts who competed!!

Following Masters Bass and Horn at Master’s Training

Five days left until Master Bass’ and Master Horn’s induction as Masters.

As they enter into 4 intense days of training, they committed to updating our ParagonToday.com blog so we can all share the experience. They will officially become Master Instructors at Opening Ceremonies of World Championships on Friday night.

Today is their third of nine days of fasting. Today is also a travel day as they head down to Little Rock, Arkansas.

Tomorrow is an early day. The entire group will be meeting at the H.U. Lee Gate and Garden for filming, training, workouts, practices and, well, more fasting. Don’t worry, I sent some bottles of water with them for lunch … and dinner … ‘oh,  and breakfast.

I know that they will be up late in their room studying tonight, as Chief Master M.K. Lee sent out a late notice of an exam for tomorrow. This will be an intense exam, and “no Master Horn, the Korean word for Cheeseburger will not be a test question.” Although, I bet a cheeseburger sounds good right now, eh?

Here are a few fun facts that make this an historic event. Their journey to mastership also marks a few firsts for Colorado — and the ATA.

  • It’s the first time that two masters from the same school and instructor have achieved the title at the same time. (with the exception of spouses)
  • It is the first time a Colorado “native” will earn the title
  • Master Horn will be the ATA’s youngest master instructor
  • They will be the first masters who trained under a Colorado instructor to achieve the title
  • They will be Master Hauptman’s first and second masters
  • They will be Chief Master Jager’s ninth and tenth masters
  • They are the fourth and fifth masters in Colorado

I will update the blog every night this week with the latest news on their progress. Check back nightly. Master William Hauptman
