Congratulations to Sempai Marlee and Sensei Quinn for being selected to the Shintani National Team in both kata AND kumite!

Way to go!

Congratulations to everyone for awesome grading sessions! Everyone who came out had the best karate night of their year! Way to go!

We would also like to wish good luck to Sensei Quinn and Sempai Marlee as they travel to the Western Canadian Karate Championships in Calgary. We know they will do well!!

The Senseis would like to thank everyone for another awesome year of karate! We have some awesome events in the planning stages for next year that we know everyone will be excited about. We would especially like to thank all of the parents who helped their children attend karate classes. Without you, we would be only a fraction of what we are! We also appreciate the many hours of volunteering that was done by everyone in our club this year at the bottle drive, 2 provincial tournaments, our wind-up, and all of the day-to-day help of running our organization!

Keep checking here through the off-season.

See you in the fall!

Just a reminder that the Just for Kicks group is grading tomorrow.

The grading will begin at 6:00 p.m. The karateka are welcome to arrive a little early to warm up and prepare.

Regular Jr/Adult class will be held at 7:30 with their grading and the wind-up next Tuesday.

Please remember to pay any outstanding fees.

You cannot be graded if you have fees owing.

See you at the dojo!

What a great turnout to the Manitoba Provicial tournament that was held here on the weekend!

It was great to see so many of our members participating and helping with the canteen, the black belt room, score keeping, and just being generally helpful!

Our members also performed very well which led to us receiving the “Club Award” for the event for the most points received for the event.

Great job, everyone! Pictures to come soon!
