🥋🌎 KARATE AROUND THE WORLD - SAUDI ARABIA 🇸🇦

This week, karate history was made in Japan!

Dina Mustafa became the first Saudi woman EVER to win an Asian Games medal, earning bronze in women’s kumite at the 2026 Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games!

Mustafa battled to an 8–7 victory in her bronze-medal match, marking a historic moment not only for Saudi karate, but for women in sport in her country.

From small dojos to international stages, we love seeing where martial arts can take you.

Strong women. Strong competitors. Making history.

This week’s focus: SPARRING 🥊

This week, we put on our gloves and put our skills to the test!

Sparring is where technique, timing, control, and confidence come together. It’s not just about landing a strike - it’s about learning to read your opponent, react under pressure, and stay in control.

A lot of hard work is happening on the mat this week and next as we continue gearing up for West TN Takedown!
