UPCOMING TOURNAMENTS:

Karate Tournaments!

     For some, Competition is considered the "Sport" side of karate. At Tournaments, Competition can take many forms, including:

  • Kata (Solo or Team Synchronized Forms, or even Musical Forms);   

  • Kumite (Point Sparring either individual or Team matches);   

  • Kobudo (Traditional Weapons Forms), and/or Self-Defense.

​

     Events are open to all ages, with some competitors starting as young as 4 or 5 years old! And, of course, there is no age limit to competing, as events are separated by age groups.  Additionally, divisions are now available for those with physical challenges!

​

     Competition provides students with a chance to practice and improve their techniques, demonstrate skills to parents & friends, as well as compete with students in their age & rank category from other schools.

 

     Tournaments are open to ALL Age Levels, and ALL Rank Levels.

​

     If you are interested in attending OR would like more information, please EMAIL the office.  Thank you!​
