in Detroit
Thank you!
If you would like to see that little blue ribbon next to our name, head over to Nickelodeon's Parents Connection, an online resource for parenting advice and community, which handled the voting.
Parents' Picks businesses were nominated based on recommendations from Nickelodeon's local city editors that live and work in the cities they cover, in conjunction with the sites' user feedback. Only five martial arts schools were nominated for the Detroit Metropolitan area for 2009.
You may ask what do we win? A nice certificate and bragging rights for the year. Considering this was the first year of the awards, our selection to be on the list came from Nickelodeon itself making this award more significant and a great honor.
After this year, other prospective nominees can request to be included for next year's vote, so I'm sure that the field will be much larger.
Our thanks and gratitude to the best students around.
