Another successful Belt Test at Okinawa Dojo!

Congratulations to all students tested on September 22nd, 2018!

It was our first Belt Test at the new Okinawa Dojo location.
It is always such a pleasure to see the outcome of the hard work. Everyone successfully passed the test. We would like to congratulate all of our students and their parents on this achievement! We are proud of you! Keep training hard!

We are looking forward to so many more exciting events together.
Thank you to Sensei John Bolosan and Sensei Tony Maccioli for your continuous support and for being a part of our examination board today.
Special thanks to parents, families and friends who came to support your kids today and every day on their karate journey!

ENJOY THIS AWESOME PHOTOGRAPHY:

At Okinawa Dojo we strive to teach the best karate classes Denver can have.

When people think of Karate Denver or  Aurora Martial Arts – we want them to think of Okinawa Dojo by KarateBros – the Best Karate School in Denver.

This our goal!

NEW MILESTONE ACHIEVED ✨This passed weekend Okinawa Dojo was filled with spectators, full examination board, and the students lined up for their moment of testing. For some, it was the culmination of months of effort, while for others, it marked years of hard work, dedication, and the pursuit of excellence in both character and karate skills. Testing for the next rank (Kyu) is a significant milestone in the life of any karateka—a chance to showcase the results of their perseverance and training.We are incredibly proud of all our students who tested. Well done, and congratulations!#karatebros #dreamteamokinawa #usakarate #karate #dojo #karatekid #okinawadojo #karatedenver #senseilife #belttest

We are beyond proud of our student Eduard Sagilyan @eduard_sagilyan_ who successfully represents Okinawa Dojo at the World arena.Currently, Eddie is ranked number #4 in the World among U21 athletes and number #16 in the World among +84 kg Senior athletes.At the beginning of October, Eddie represented Team USA at the World Championships in Jesolo, Italy, and placed 7th in the WORLD! We all saw what happened in the quarterfinals, a referee made a wrong call, that could have changed the match outcome completely, but, hey, it’s a sport!  And just like in life in sport, things not always happen the way they should. We are ready for whatever it is ahead of us.Eddie got back home, refocused, re-adjusted, and started preparing for the next big event - the Karate World Cup in Pamplona, Spain that is happening this coming weekend, November 22-24. Eddie is already on his way to Spain, where he will meet with the rest of the Team USA. The men’s team is fighting on Friday.Good luck Team USA 🇺🇸Watch LIVE:Tatami 1: https://i.mtrbio.com/MUBACTZFFHTatami 2: https://i.mtrbio.com/SDNBXJREEJ#EduardSagilyan
