Holidays, Closures, and other Events 2023 - 2024
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 Sleepover, annual Halloween party and annual 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.
