The team IKC and Renshi : Shamsheerali is so glad to hear that the by Senpei : Alisha Sequeira, our Budoka, was so insightful and inspiring for the IKC

Her ability to successfully navigate and excel in both Classical and is indeed a powerful and much-needed example. You are absolutely right that this directly counters the discouragement students often face from those who perceive these diverse passions as incompatible.

Seeing a concrete example of someone thriving in different fields is the most effective encouragement students can receive to embrace and manage their own varied interests.

Please accept our virtual applause and sincere congratulations to Senpei : Alisha Sequeira on her inspiring achievement and presentation!
