Thank you, Sempai Marlee, for sharing some your experiences from your trip to Japan! You and Sensei Quinn are inspirational for all of us in the dojo.

We have always said, “You get out of martial arts what you put into martial arts.” You guys have shown us what the beginning of hard work and dedication looks like. 

Doors are open, and opportunity awaits you! The whole dojo is behind you, supporting you and following in the trail you blaze ahead of us!

We are reminded of the words of Ohtsuka Sensei, “The difference between the possible and the impossible is one’s will.”

We wish you both the very best as you begin your journeys in karate.

Don’t forget that today is Tuesday!!

2016 Black Belt Grading

It has been set up to give information to those attending the black belt grading being held here on October 21 and 22, 2016.

The Friday night clinic is open to karateka who are ranked blue belt or higher. Brown belt karateka are invited to participate in the black belt grading on Saturday to get an idea of what will be required of you at your grading.

We hope to see at the workouts!!
