🎉Celebrating Our Journey Together🎉
As we wrap up the year, it’s the perfect time to reflect on the incredible progress our young karatekas have made as part of the club. Their dedication, growth, and enthusiasm have been inspiring to witness throughout the year, both in training and in competition.
Our recent club tournament was a shining example of how far everyone has come. The kids truly gave it their all, showcasing their skills with focus and determination. It’s always a thrill to see how tournaments bring out the best in them, transforming their hard work in class into standout performances on the mat.
We owe a huge debt of gratitude to all the parents, helpers, and volunteers who supported the event. Special thanks to:
✨ Eva, Senpai Steven, Senpai Levi, and Senpai Ryan for helping with setup.
✨ Our dedicated table staff: Eva, Kathy, Neisha, and Kiriko.
✨ Our hard-working Senpai referees: Grace, Chloe, Rhy, Nila, Shun, Yuri, Levi, Ryan, Hayley, Steven, and Jonathan, as well as Sensei Sari.
Your efforts ensured the tournament’s success, and we’re incredibly grateful for your time and dedication.
As we look ahead to next year, we’re excited about new opportunities to learn, grow, and connect as a club.
Here’s to celebrating an amazing year and gearing up for an even better one in 2025! 🥋✨
🥷💥Ninja Valley Adventure 🥷💥
What an amazing time at the Ninja Valley! We had a fantastic turnout with so many kids joining in the fun. A special highlight was when the Senpais tried to knock Sensei Jessie off the Battle Bridge—talk about some fierce competition! And let’s not forget the rock climbing challenge, which kept everyone on their toes.
Some of the kids had a blast running around the playground, while others couldn’t get enough of bouncing on the trampoline. It was a day full of laughs, teamwork, and plenty of friendly rivalry. Looking forward to more adventures like this! 🥷💥
