๐Ÿ† Today we had our annual Christmas competition ๐Ÿ†

A smaller one this year but equally as epic and chaotic as usual ๐Ÿ˜‚

We put Sensei Caitlin in charge of planning the categories and we went all Strictly Come Dancing and scored kata with paddles ๐Ÿชฉ

The fighting rounds were awesome, excellent *diagonal* movement everyone ๐Ÿ˜€

Competitor of the day was Ebony and she also won Most Dedicated Student 2025

Joe won the kata comp and took home Most Improved Student 2025

Laurie took first place in fighting ๐ŸฅŠ

And Luke was Student of the Year for 2025!

Everyone has absolutely smashed it today and all year so well done team!

See you all back on the 11th January 2026 ๐Ÿ™‚

Merry Christmas and a happy new year ๐Ÿฅณ

Weโ€™re back with student of the month and this month itโ€™s Cleo!

All the instructors have been impressed with Cleoโ€™s progress over the last few months and itโ€™s come from her being willing to try new things and take on challenges, where she once struggled to do so. Keep it up Cleo!

Congratulations to Nate for passing his purple belt grading today ๐Ÿฅ‹ Over a years worth of hard work has gone into this and it showed today with his top performance!
There were many rounds of sparring including a 2 vs 1 with Sensei Ann and Abbie (safe to say Nate won ๐Ÿ˜‚)

๐Ÿ† Today was our end of year competition and annual awards for 2024 ๐Ÿ†

This year we had a chaotic Pairs Kata competition in the middle of our usual kata and fighting categories. We partnered people up randomly and gave them 5 minutes to practice a kata and then attempt to do it in sync with each other! Everyone did great, even Louis who was the unlucky person to be partnered with Wayne ๐Ÿคฃ

The competition was the closest it has ever been, with most kata rounds resulting in a split decision and the kumite bouts being very high scoring on both sides. We were super impressed with the number of head kicks on show! Hopefully the trophies are a more acceptable size this year parents ๐Ÿคฃ

Annual awards this year went as follows:
Competitor of the day- Ebony
Most improved student- Jake
Most dedicated student- Luke
Student of the year- Ava

From all the instructors at Hansei Wadokai we wish our members and their families a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year ๐Ÿฅณ
