/ moosemountainkarate

Great work last night, everyone! Way to give those Senseis a workout!!

Next week, May 20, will be our last regular class of the season. The following week, Tuesday, May 27, will be our wind-up pot luck and BBQ dinner.

The Weyburn Tournament is being held on Sunday, May 25 at Haig School in Weyburn. Registration is at noon and the tournament begins at 1 pm. It would be great to see a number of our members attend to support this excellent event. It is a smaller tournament much like the one in Melitta in January.

Don’t forget to check out and subscribe to our new YouTube channel. Moose Mountain Karate on YouTube.

See you at the dojo!

Well Done in Manitoba!

Congratulations to our members who participated in the Manitoba Provincial Wado Kai Karate Tournament over the weekend! Our members did very well and represented our club exceptionally well!

There were a number of excellent demonstrations performed at the tournament and we will share some video of them over the next few weeks.

We’ll start it off with this one:

Sensei Shannon Kaye performing Taisei no Shindo

14 Years Ago…

Sensei Shintani passed away.

Sensei Denis has asked us to pass on the following message:

​”Today is the day that Sensei Masaru Shintani passed away 14 years ago in Kapuskasing, Ontario. Can we take a moment today to reflect on Sensei and remember ….” his humility, his respect for everyone, and the way he led his life with honour in peace and harmony.

“Also, I would encourage you to take a moment to read about Sensei on the website – this was his organization and his life’s work is the SWKKF.  It is our mission to continue forward with it.
