  • Are you drinking enough water?

    Are you drinking enough water?

    About 60-70% of our body is composed of water. I recently learned that 90% of our blood is water. That's why it is recommended to drink 8 glasses of 80z water each day to stay hydrated and keep our body functioning properly. Drinking that much water daily easier said than done though for some of us isn't it? I get caught up in a million and one things at any given moment, I actually forget to drink water throughout the day. Can anybody relate? Water acts as a cushion and natural lubricant for our joints, muscles and organs. Aid's in healthier skin and weight loss. I also notice that I have less headaches with drinking more water. This is because the water helps carry oxygen flow ....

    Try this next time you make the kids do chores

    With everyone being at home more now than ever, mom and dad would love some help around the house. We see value is delegating chores at home and no age is too young. Whether it is cleaning up toys after playtime, clearing the table after dinner, doing dishes or taking the trash out... everyone can give a hand.

  • A takeaway from 2020...

    Happy New Year everyone! To the year 2020, wow, what can besaid that hasn't already been said? You really put us all to the test. You threw just about every obstacle our way and when we finally thought we got a grip, you continued to surprise us. 2020 is officially behind us and although the pandemic is not over, we are hopeful that 2021 will bring us joy and normalcy.

Hello, I’m usually not a big fan of sharing with the public but this is not normal times! I am so proud of USK as a company, as friends, and as a big part of our family. Everything y’all have done to stay connected with us and still provide us with classes has been amazing and so appreciated. It meant so much to me as a mom that y’all made the belt test happen, but even more to Amelia. She has worked so hard to earn her greenbelt and it has been a daily topic of conversation around her for months! Today to see the pride in her face as she tested for you and then read your email, it was truly wonderful. So again thank you so much for all that you do!

Sincerely, Erin Schmid

My girls and I began taking classes at USK Fort Mill in January of 2017. They came highly recommended and they have not dissapointed. Master Amy and Mister Howie are top notch instructors and more importantly, top notch people. Both of our girls have shown tremendous improvement in their behavior both at home and at school. Take the plunge if you are considering USK... your family will love it!

We toured & tried 4 studios before we found USK. Our son is on the spectrum and was diagnosed a little later than normal, so he really has to trust his teachers/coaches. From day 1 with USK it has made a world of difference in his behavior & confidence. He makes friends so much easier, and he loves Master Amy, Instructor Howie, & Miss Brianne so much. We are so grateful for all the instructors & their patience with our boy.
