It will be great to see everyone back in class on Tuesday, January 6, 2015!
Use this chilly day to go over some kata and refresh your techniques after the Christmas break.
For those of you interested in the tournament circuit… The Melita, MB tournament is the next one on the schedule.

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.

We will be completing our kick-a-thon activity tonight during our regular workouts! The activity only takes about 15 minutes so REGULAR CLASS IS STILL GOING after the kick-a-thon event.
Even if you didn’t raise any pledges, you will still participate in the activity. It’s still karate… it’s still a class!
Also, the 3rd SESSION BEGINS NEXT WEEK! So be sure to come ready to pay your fees.
See you at the dojo!
We have received a few phone calls from members saying that the roads are questionable tonight. They have collected pledges for the kick-a-thon and were concerned about not being able to participate tonight.
For that reason, we are postponing the kick-a-thon activity until next week in hopes that everyone can attend.
Karate is still on tonight but be safe on the roads!
Hopefully everyone has been out collecting pledges for our 1st Annual Kick-a-Thon!
The club is excited to be supporting Carlyle and Area KidSport, an organization that has supported our members for many years.
During the regular classes tomorrow, we will be doing our kick-a-thon activity. Please bring your pledge forms and money and turn them in to Sensei Kevin.
The top pledge earners from across Canada will be entered in a national prize draw from the Shintani Karate Federation!
See you at the dojo!!
… to all of the students who successfully graded up tonight! It was a great turn-out for an excellent grading.
The Senseis would also like to give a special shout to Sensei Cara for all of her work organizing and preparing the grading forms! Thank you, Sensei!
Regular classes resume next week.
KEEP GETTING THOSE PLEDGES FOR THE KICK-A-THON!! Pledge forms and funds are to be handed in to Sensei Kevin. Our kick-a-thon activity will be held on Tuesday, February 18 during the regular class times.
Here’s a tip for our new members trying to figure out what to do with those stripes!!
The stripes should be sewn onto the belt on the plain end (the side without the label). They are usually placed about a finger width apart just so they look good and organized. That also makes it easier for the Senseis to see just how many stripes the student has. The sewing doesn’t have to be some fancy stitching. Just enought to keep it from falling off.
The Just For Kicks grading will take place tomorrow, Tuesday, January 28 at 6:00 pm.
Please notice the time change.
The Jr/Adult class will be held at 7:30 as usual.
The kyu belt grading will be held next week, Tuesday, February 4 at 6:30 pm.
Just For Kicks class is cancelled on Tuesday, February 4.
