Mercer Academy of Martial Arts is proud of our students who have done additional training to prepare for tournaments. For the past few years a number of students have participated in various tournaments throughout the tri-state area. We applaud their hard work and commitment and are proud of how they represented both themselves and their karate school. A special thanks goes out to Master Charles Irwin and Master Laurie DeUmberto for the extra time spent training these students to better prepare them for tournaments.
