Tonight classes were cancelled due to the Science Road Show using the main hall space at the Northland Memorial Community Centre so in lieu of classes we celebrated with an inaugural SKNW Dojo Brown and Black Belt dinner. We may be the newest of the 5 Seido Karate Dojos in the Greater Wellington region at only 4 years young but I am very pleased with our continued growth and the dedication of the students who choose to train in this dojo. This celebration was to acknowledge the on-going support provided to me from Kyoshi Bruce and the 6 Brown Belts of this dojo. Molly, Phoebe, Esera, Shayla, Dana and Rayan who not only role model forms, techniques and syllabus to the kohai at every class but they unwittingly are also maintaining the standards expected of me from my instructors .... However you all need to work a lot harder on providing the entertainment for the Black Belts between courses ... luckily Esera's rap and Phoebe's beat box skills saved you ALL a few push up's haha. I was so happy when Sensei Angela (Seido Wgtn), Sensei Graeme, Senpai's Terri and Ben Phillips and Ben H from Seido Karate Upper Hutt Dojo all accepted the invitation to be a part of the celebration. Sincere thank you for the continued support provided to myself and this dojo, and from all of the Seido Karate Upper Hutt Dojo members, I look forward to seeing as many that can attend the combined dojo classes here on 17th September. Sincere thank you to Gavin owner of Arashi Kushiyaki Bar, Courtenay Place and his staff for a wonderful meal and dining experience. Dōmo arigatōgozaimashita Osu! Sensei Garry
What a joy to have Sensei Angela come and train with us last night. We started our Seido Karate journey in the same year, at the same dojo (when Seido Wellington was based on Sar Street, Thorndon) and were promoted to Yondan at the same grading in Christchurch. Looking forward to more regular visits where you can share your energy and knowledge with us all. Osu! Sensei Garry Photo acknowledgment: Denis Chin
