A strong family values oriented dojo

FIVE different people – SAME Life Attitudes – Juniors Grading Tuesday 27th JULY 2021

As we listened to each of the children describe their parents and their lives as a family….the same expressed constants resounded between the all…
  • Love of parents, family and friends
  • Trying your hardest no matter what the challenges
  • Believing in yourself especially when things get tough
Well done to a great bunch of young SEIDO karate-ka…for your superhuman grading efforts and honest dedication to the SEIDO tenets of Love, Respect and Obedience…
 
Thank you to your amazing parents and families for their support of your karate journeys and thank you as always to the many instructors and fellow karate-ka who continue to nurture and encourage you all as you become outstanding young people…
 
 
Warmest regards and best wishes always

“SEIDO Sprit” ever present from talented Junior Duo – Juniors Grading 6th JULY 2021

Despite early nerves, grading juniors Lewis and Michael got stuck into the challenges of the evenings grading…
 
Big OSU’s and Big KIAI’s lifting their demonstrations of “SEIDO SPIRIT” to the next level as they pushed themselves strongly to overcome each physical and technical challenge placed in front of them…
 
Well supported throughout by family and fellow karate-ka, each one standing in MOKUSO at the very end to express their inner feelings of Love towards their parents and extended family members with great sincerity and clarity….an awesome capability from ones still so young…
 
Well done and keep up the hard training and dedication…

DUO pushed to exhaustion and beyond – Juniors Grading Tuesday 29th JUNE 2021

On an evening of one of Wellington’s most severe and freezing of weather conditions, it was grading night for 2 of the Dojo’s very talented juniors….
 
Pushed to exhaustion and beyond….Thomas and Mez finding the extra bits of spirit needed to complete each grading task asked of them with true grit and determination….
 
Well supported by families and fellow karate-ka throughout the evening, both boys continuing to learn the importance of the love of their parents and families, the support of their fellow karate-ka and the guidance of their Senpai teachers at the Dojo in their young lives…
 
Well Done to you both…keep up the effort with your karate journeys…
 
Warmest and best wishes always
