2017 Tournament Photo Day

Save the date!

Sunday May 7th @ 2:00 PM

All tournament competitors meet at the Dojo, and bring your medals and trophies, be in uniform and bring a camera and we will take an awesome group photo of all of our fantastic competitors together in one shot!

For everyone’s convenience please use a piece of masking tape and a marker and write your name in an inconspicuous area of your trophy (if it is not personalized already) so we may set the trophies up for the shot, and know who to give the trophies back to at the end of the photo shoot!

The photo shoot shouldn’t take any longer than a half an hour or so, please be punctual and I look forward to seeing you all there! Great job everyone!

2016 Tournament Competitors

Tournament practice class

Need one more class to get yourself ready for the tournament on Sunday?

This Saturday we will hold two extra classes for all those who need a little “brushing up”.

Saturday April 29th from 6:30 pm to 7:15 pm we we will be practicing forms and self defense (please bring your uke) and from 7:15 pm to 8:00 pm we will spar using tournament rules. There is no charge for this class, lets get ready to represent and…

…get back on the mat.

April 1st marks the begining of T-Shirt season!

Spring has sprung at Cutting Edge Kempo Karate!

Starting today you are welcome to wear any of our SCHOOL T-SHIRT designs in lieu of your Gi top! Last years limited edition design? Absolutely! Standard school T design? Of course! New bedazzled design? No problem! Can I still wear my Gi top all the time like Shihan? Without a doubt!

Please be aware that the rule is school t-shirts only, if you show up to class in a regular t-shirt, and you do not have a Gi top to wear, you will be asked to come to class another day.

P.S.- A little bird told me there is an all new limited edition design on the way… 😉

We will be closed due to the snow…

Tuesday March 14, 2017. Check back for updates to see if the roads have been made safe by Wednesday evening… Please stay inside and don’t go out on to the roads unless you absolutely have to.

Stay safe everyone, and enjoy your shoveling, and drink an extra cup of hot cocoa for me!!!!

Thank you everyone and happy holidays!

I wanted to take the time to say thank you for the outpouring of cards, gifts and well wishes! You all are far too generous. I also wanted to thank those of you that made it to our Holiday party this year, the kids had a blast, as always! It is always so wonderful to see the kids running and laughing and enjoying time together. Thank you to all my awesome instructors and assistants for all that you do, both on the mat and off! It is an incredibly proud part of my life to watch you all learn and grow.

It was great having Grandmaster Rich Fescina back in the Dojo again, I am glad he could find the time to drop in and visit. (Rumor has it he will be coming in to teach a class or two in the future!)

2016 has been a good year, and I feel blessed that you all are a part of our Kempo family. I wish everyone the happiest holiday season, and all the best for 2017! I can’t wait to see you all on the mat next week!
