Holidays, Closures, and other Events 2024 - 2025
Our dojo is very much a community and we provide a variety of traditions and events to help establish and maintain this environment. Examples of this include our annual Dojo After Dark event, our Halloween party and Karate Camp.
During the months of June, July and August, Saturday classes will be held outside in Assiniboine Park, weather permitting. The focus of these classes will be on weapons training.

Karate Camp
Karate Camp takes place at St. Malo provincial park. It is open to all Karateka and their families. It will combine daily training sessions, camping, and community events. There is no extra cost for Karate Camp other than your camping fees. The dates will be announced by the end of March each year to ensure that everyone can secure a campsite.
Prior notice will be given for other dates of dojo activities such as seminars and gradings.
