#DreamTeamOkinawa at 2015 US Open Karate Championship and Junior International Cup in Las Vegas.

When we hear word Las Vegas we think of casinos, posh, shopping, spectacular shows and nightlife but for #DreamTeamOkinawa Las Vegas is totally different. For the fourth year in a row students and coaches from Denver karate school travel to Vegas over Easter weekend to fight on the rings of Paris hotel and casino at the prestigious international championship US Open and JR Intl Cup 2015. Over 2000 athletes of all ages from 33 countries from around the World traveled to fabulous Las Vegas to test their skills against each other.

Our team has been represented by 16 athletes, 5 coaches and many family members and friends. Everyone on the team demonstrated strong character, will to win and spectacular performance over 3 days of competition. We enjoyed so much overall experience of this great event, made new friends and met with the top karate competitors of the World.

What a success for Team USA at the Jr. Pan American Championships in Brazil!
This was my first time joining the USA Karate National Team as a Trainer, and I enjoyed every second of it. The teamwork of everyone involved was outstanding!
A big shout-out to Sasha @gerristonsasha and Natalie @nataliecolonnixon for expertly organizing everything—communication, scheduling, and more.
The coaches put in immense effort into training, preparing for matches, and guiding during the battles.
Trainers, it was challenging, but it was rewarding to do our job. Despite the hectic, hot, and less-than-pleasant conditions of the staging area, I believe we managed to keep all athletes warmed up and fully prepared to perform their best. I appreciate sharing this experience with you all.
Parents, your kindness, friendliness, and support truly helped the team feel united.
Athletes, whether you medaled or not, you played a crucial role in our overall success. You fought your hardest, bounced back when needed, and supported your teammates. And you achieved the most medals the USA has ever won at the Jr. Pan American Championships!!! Congratulations and keep up the hard work. The World Championships are just around the corner. Italy, here we come!
