Team Ward brings home medals at the Colorado Springs Traditional Invitational Karate tournament.
Ward’s Family Karate in Colorado Springs was well represented at the 2010 Colorado Springs Traditional Invitational Karate tournament. Our competitors were Ben Jordan, Garrett Cichello, and Keri Myers. Ours students competed in Kata and Kumite (sparring).
There was great competition and this was one of he best run tournaments around. There were 114 competition registered for competition from three states.
That a big division
Congratulation the Garrett for winning Silver in the Kata competition, And congratulations to Keri for receiving Bronze in Kumite.
I heard that Keri was up against some really difficult competitors in Kunite. That is a really great way to get experience when you fight better more experienced fighters.
Garrett and Ben had their hand full in kata. They competed in a division of 14 competitors. I sure am glad I did not have to judge that division. Thanks Shaun and Bret for taking that one.
I had a great day of judging Kata and Kobudo (weapons kata) also mirroring (referring) for Kumite. Boy I was sweating as had as the fighters trying to keep up with them.
Chesk the video below if Keri performing kata Empi:

On Dec. 5th we had a great awards dinner at Ward’s Family Karate in Colorado Springs. All of our students have done well this year and we wanted to recognize them for all of there hard work. It was a cold snowy night but we had a great turn out. We opened the night with a pot luck dinner. Ow Yum, we had some good dishes. I especially like the corn casserole, and Chet’s special Chile. After dinner we handed out awards. We had a large number of academic awards for A’s B’s and improved grades. I am glad to see our students are doing so well in school and I am very pleased that the discipline learn in our Martial Arts classes in Colorado Springs is helping our students to achieve better grades. We also recognized our students for Courtesy, Respect, and good habits of Cleaning their room and making there bed. We also gave our awards fro Karate achievement. I enjoyed giving our my special Samaria award for those who have contributed to our dojo with their service. We also had some fun awards such as our Gumb award for the most flexible wrists.
If you could not attend this event I hope you will be able to next year. We also played a video of some of the recent events since we opened the new Ward’s Family Karate dojo. I have placed a shorter version of the video here for you to view.
