Thank you to everyone that turned up and trained hard. A fantastic turnout and excellent atmosphere throughout both sessions 👊🏼

A huge congratulations to our junior competitors that attended the Yokoso Novice tournament last weekend!

For many of them, this was their first ever competition, and to come away with 3 medals from 5 entries is an excellent result they should all be proud of.

The standard of karate was brilliant and we’re all very proud of how they handled themselves on and off the tatami.
The way they all cheered for each other, celebrated each others wins and supported each others misfortune was fantastic to see too. What an excellent attitude from the group, walking in and out of that tournament as a real team.

And thanks of course to all the families for their trust and support! 🥋 🥇🥈🥉

Tomorrow! All our family and friends are welcome to join us for our Annual Presentation and Christmas Party.

See you at 7pm! 🎄 🎉 🥋
