A karate tournament is a great way to challenge yourself against other karate students and bring your skill to the next level. Everyone receives instructive feedback and encouragement.
A great way to prepare yourself for karate tournaments is by joining our competition team. You'll receive extra training, great competition, new friends and team spirit! Events include weekly practice sessions, special training with other karate dojos in the area, local tournaments through the year, as well as Regional and National championships. Our dojo is one of the most competitive schools in the area with many of our students winning top places at National Championships and Junior Olympics Games, even competing at the World Championship in the US, Japan & Europe.
