Dynamite Nathan Metcalf, proudly displays his award, winning against all of his opponents at age 5 with his tenacity.

Exciting to watch Ty do his form, weapons, and sparring. His flamboyant flare to using his legs to kick is just fast and lighting. Even when he performed his “Kata” and weapons Kobudo, that he brings the house down.

Jasper’s first-year competition is the most novice among student. He is the quietest but always smiles with no worries. His confidence has picked up since he has been studying karate with his older brother Ty. Jasper’s first competition ever!
