Last Workout Before the Tournament
Tonight is our last workout before the tournament this weekend!!
We’ll be working on our katas and tuning up our kumite as we practice “ring etiquette” and proper ring procedures.
Remember that we need everyone to sign up to help with something over the weekend in order for the tournament to run smoothly.
And it would be great to see everyone attend the tournament to meet some great people, see some great karate, and learn some new techniques.
See you tonight.
One more to go!
One more workout next week before our tournament!
Good work tonight, everyone. It looked like everyone made some good progress on their katas. Even just a quick run-through every night before bed will help to “own” the kata and do well on tournament day. Remember to move like you’re in a real fight when doing your kata. Make it believable!
Please remember that everyone needs to pitch in to help make our tournament successful. If we all help a little then no one needs to do a lot!
See you next week.
Class Tonight…
We’ll be having our regular classes tonight.
Just for Kicks at 6:30 and the Jr’s and Adults at 7:30.
We’re preparing hard for the tournament and we’ll be asking for volunteers tonight to help with various aspects of the tournament weekend.
See you tonight!
Time to Start Preparing…
for our annual tournament.
Each year, we host the SK Provincial Wad0-Kai Karate Tournament and it is always a terrific success. But only because we work together to make it that way!
The tournament draws over 100 people annually from Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta and often has guests from Ontario as well. Naturally, to have an event like this run smoothly, we must ask people to take on certain responsibilities. But many hands make light work and if we all pitch in to help out no single job is very difficult.
We have only 2 workouts left to prepare for the tournament so next week we will be asking for volunteers for certain jobs on the tournament weekend. Since we’ll all be there (wink wink), it is easier to help out with some of these jobs.
We’ll need help with score keeping and timing (we’ll teach you how to do it; it’s really easy), canteen (including people to run the BBQ’s if that’s what’s decided), perhaps a prize table like our kids have at hockey tournaments, an equipment/merchandise table, and some other jobs as well. Come to the workout next week with your “Volunteer Hat” on!
This tournament has been running in Carlyle for over 25 years! Let’s make this the best one yet!!
Oh, and don’t forget to practice your kata!

It’s coming up fast, only 3 weeks to go!
The tournaments are really great events for our karateka (students) of all ages. It is a great place to show your hard work and test yourself against other karateka. But more importantly, it is a great place to meet great people.
The people are helpful and supportive and the competition is friendly and good natured.
We’ll be discussing the tournament a great deal in the next few workouts.
See you at the dojo.
Congratulations…
to “Sensei” Kevin who successfully completed his black belt grading in Boissevain, MB on Saturday!
We’re back at our regular time and place this week.
See you at the dojo.
