The June 5th promotions marked a very special day for Team Elwany, especially for the women’s program. For a little over a year, the women’s class has grown steadily, with pioneers Nour and Zainab leading the way. This time, both of them reached important milestones: Nour received her first two stripes at once, while Zainab earned two more, bringing her to a total of three. Their progress reflects not just technical skill, but also courage, persistence, and leadership on the mats.
These promotions show the diversity and strength of Team Elwany’s students. From pioneering women athletes to long-time practitioners finding balance in life and training, the academy continues to grow stronger together.
