Connor Ferris, a dedicated member of Shin's Trampoline Team and a Santa Clarita local, placed second this past weekend in USAG's Trampoline & Tumbling Regional Championship.  Competing in Level 8 (15 years & older), Connor, displayed great poise and all out effort as he twisted and flipped his way to the winner's podium.  Connor also recently won League Championship in diving for Canyon High School. 

Coached by Dan McCann, a former world level trampoline competitor, Connor has been a member of Shin's Trampoline Team for more than two years.  Prior to his trampoline training, Connor was a member of Shin's Family Taekwondo Martial Arts Center's National Sparring Team for close to four years before switching over to trampolines. 

Connor has done well this competition season due to his work ethic and his desire to win.  However, part of the credit should be given to his parents, Rand and Kerry, who have both gone above and beyond to support both Connor and his younger brother Logan not only in their academic lives but in their athletic lives as well. 

Kudos to the Ferris Family for setting a great example to all the other Santa Clarita families with children involved in high performance activities such as martial arts, trampoline & tumbling.  Thank you Rand, Kerry, Connor and Logan for letting me be a part your lives.  I am fortunate to have such wonderful people in my life.  GO SHIN'S!!!

Respectfully Yours,

Master Shin
