Great work last night, everyone!

There were many sweaty faces on the floor last night which shows how hard everyone was working! 

For our new members… great job! You were all trying hard and sticking with it. Keep it up.

Congratulations to everyone who received their new belts last night. It’s always exciting to achieve a higher rank. However, with higher rank comes higher responsibility! As you rank up, you become more of a role model and example to the others in the dojo. You need to worker harder than you did at your previous rank in all aspects of your martial life. People ARE watching you and will follow the example you set. We know you are all up to the challenge!

See you at the dojo!

… for our competitive club members this weekend as they travel to Calgary for more intensive training in the style of competition used at the National competition.

They will be working out with Sensei Heather and members of the Alberta provincial team to further develop their skills and understanding of the rules and etiquette for this world class event. Good luck and work hard in Calgary.

See you at the dojo!

We would like to say Thank You to the Carlyle Lions Club which donated $1000 towards the upcoming trip to Nationals!

We deeply appreciate their support!

Regular classes resume today!

See you at the dojo!

Just a reminder that regular classes resume at their regular times tomorrow evening.

See you at the dojo!

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2015 annual report for this blog.

Here’s an excerpt:

A New York City subway train holds 1,200 people. This blog was viewed about 6,400 times in 2015. If it were a NYC subway train, it would take about 5 trips to carry that many people.

2015 was an exciting year for us.

Our membership grew, we celebrated our 30th Annual Tournament, and we have members attending a National karate tournament on the first ever Saskatchewan Provincial Karate Team.

Thank you to all of our members and their significant others who all help to make our club a success!

The senseis of Moose Mountain Wado Kai Karate Club wish all of you the very best in the New Year!

Classes resume on Tuesday, January 4, 2016.

See you at the dojo!

… to everyone who participated in the grading last night.

Sensei Darren was impressed by how hard everyone was working, and how focused everyone was during the grading.

We would also like to thank Sensei Darren for coming out for the grading.

We’ll see everyone again on January 5, 2016! Have a Merry Christmas!

See you at the dojo.
