Shin Sho Kan Karate Dunedin

Recently I travelled to Auckland to complete my Yondan (4th Dan) grading.

This incredible opportunity included five days of intensive training, learning, and development, allowing me to further build my skills and knowledge alongside high-level instructors and colleagues.

I’m grateful for the experience and look forward to bringing what I’ve learned back to the dojo to share with our students.

Looking forward to our upcoming gradings.

Congratulations to all who graded in the last week of term. Have an enjoyable break and look forward to seeing you all in the New Year. I will be in touch via email with dates for when we get started again.

Great to see such a good turnout at our Kata competition this week. This was the first time for a number of our students and we were really impressed with everyone's performance. The judges had a hard time with some really close rounds so regardless of the end results you can all be proud! Looking forward to grading next week 🥋

Great to see a good number at the grading session last week. Congratulations to those who graded - some great progress displayed. Looking forward to working towards our final grading later this year.

Congratulations to those Seniors who graded recently. Very impressed with the effort shown by all and the great results were evidence of this. Looking forward to Term 3!

Congratulations to those who participated in the recent Junior grading. Looking forward to Senior grading in the next few weeks!

Another successful year comes to an end with some great grading results for both Senior and Junior students. Thank you for your continued support for the dojo and our instructors. Although small, the club has a great feel about it and this wouldn't be possible without you all. Wishing you all a safe and relaxing Christmas and New Year period and look forward to getting started again in the new year for Term 1.

Congratulations to Mohammed Rizwan on a successful grading in Auckland recently where he obtained the grade of Shodan (Black belt 1st Dan). Years of perseverance and dedication to the art has paid off and his continued contribution to the club is much appreciated by us all. A proud moment for Mohammed, his family and our Dojo.

A great training session for all juniors recently including some great results for those that graded. Looking forward to term 4!

Have a safe Holiday season and will be in touch regarding start dates for term 1.
