And be sure to wish Sempai Hannah, Sempai Quinn, and Sempai Cory good luck as they go for their black belt grading this weekend in Edson, AB. Good luck to each of you! We know you’ll do great!
What a “Smashing” workout!
It’s surprising how much fun one can have when they’re breaking stuff!! Even if it’s their own knuckles! Ok… so we didn’t have any broken knuckles but there was definitely some bruising and swelling. We have the photographic proof but won’t publish it here! Let’s just say we will be spending some time working on focus points and targeting 😉
The Just for Kicks students had a great time throwing and submitting our instructors as well! We’ll all have to watch out for those sneaky quick arm bars!!
The Melfort Tournament is coming up next weekend, May 3, 2014 for those interested in attending. Here is the information Melfort 2014 Tournament Poster
The Manitoba Provincial Tournament is being held the following weekend, May 9/10, in Boissevain, MB. The information for that tournament is posted below in previous links.

Last update about Saskatoon
Some of you were asking the cost to participate in the Saskatoon/Warman tournament.
Here is the breakdown:
$25 for both events, the Friday night clinic AND the Saturday tournament. This would also cover the Sunday morning workout if anyone is interested (open to adults of all ranks).
Banquet costs: $15 for adults (over 16 years old), $10 for teens (11-15), $8 for youth (6-10), and free for kids (under 6). If you are wanting banquet tickets, I need to know ASAP. We had to give our numbers to the caterers on Saturday, and they have about 10 tickets left.
