NVCC to Host First Annual CT Masters of Martial Arts Honors on March 28

Waterbury, Conn. – The Naugatuck Valley Community College Martial Arts Club, Genesis II Theater and Connecticut Shorin-Ryu Karate will present the first annual CT Masters of Martial Arts Honors on Saturday, March 28 at 7p.m. in the Mainstage Theatre, 750 Chase Parkway, Waterbury.

The event will honor a select group of Connecticut martial arts teachers who have been nominated by their peers. The event will also feature live demonstrations, celebrity guests and information booths.

“This event will mark a number of ‘firsts,’” said William H. Foster III, professor of English. “For the first time these honorees will be celebrated for their skills as educators. It will be the first time that they have not been asked to attend such an occasion as a performer. This is a tribute completely in their honor and it will mark the first time the Connecticut martial arts community has had a chance to meet for a non-competitive social occasion.”

The event is free and open to the public. Please contact Professor Foster at (203) 596-8612 or wfoster@nvcc.commnet.edu for more information.
