On May 4th we held our annual Fighter’s Cup tournament. This is a semi-knockdown (pads) and knockdown tournament open to both kids and adults. We’d like to thank all the dojos that participated for supporting us and all of their excellent fighters. It takes a lot of courage to simply step on the mat for a real karate fight so everyone who participated deserves to be commended.
One important aspect of karate training is instilling confidence and everyone who participated in this tournament definitely had plenty of it.
A huge thanks to the following dojos as well as the World Oyama karate fighters who joined us from Japan!
1. Shinkyokushin Karate Las Vegas – https://karatelasvegas.com
2. Enshin Karate Tomiyama Dojo San Francisco – https://www.enshinsf.com/
3. Wah Dojo Concord – https://www.wahdojo.com/
4. Phoenix Karate Do Association – http://www.phoenixkaratedo.com/
5. Majimedojo, Austin Texas – https://majimedojo.com/
4. Others who I cannot remember off the top of my head. I’ll try to get a list so my apologies if your dojo is not listed here yet.
We were honored to have World Oyama fighters and Sensei from Japan join us for the Fighter’s Cup!
