The BLNTBC, Martial Arts Celebration for children, offers an amazing day of positive competition. There will be explosive demonstrations and performances as well as a thrilling awards ceremony. The highlight of the day is the introduction and autograph signing of the Seven Young American Heroes. The key principle of the Seven Young American Heroes is to embody, promote, and uplift the importance of higher education, self-discipline, self-esteem and self-preservation. Grand Master O’Neal and his team journeyed to 20 cities all across America over a course of 7 months on a search for the most exceptional talent. Out of thousands of Martial Artists across America, only seven were chosen to be the Seven Young American Heroes. Participants of the 22nd Annual Blue Lion Nationals Title Belt Championship will have the opportunity to audition to become a new member of the Seven Young American Heroes.

Other special guests of the tournament include Rob Hartman, Director of Disney's Martial Arts Festival, Grand Master Robert Parham from the movie Buster Jones, Master Larnell Stovall, lead choreographer for the movies Matrix, 300, and Undisputed III, Grand Master Daniel Hect, President/CEO of the Master's Hall of Fame. Disney will also be giving away authentic mouse ears. 

This event will benefit our efforts in not only showcasing the tremendous talent of our students and participants, but also allow us to continue to create and develop positive programs that will instill a commitment to education, self-discipline, and confidence to all children. Whether you are a participant, family member or a fan, there is something for you at the BLNTBC.
