Karate in the Bahamas
09/11/12 11:36 Filed in: Special Events | Club News
If you’re interested in mixing sand, beaches, karate and camaraderie, you should think about joining your fellow Toronto Wado-Kai karateka in the Bahamas next April.
The event is being held in Freeport, the Bahamas from April 5-12, 2013. The $1,300 price is all-inclusive and will provide an experience second to none.
Sensei Julie and I went in February 2010, and it was a great time!
We worked out every morning on the beach. Each sensei took a turn leading the workout, which gave everyone insight into how others approach teaching.
We spent a number of evenings working out with Freeman Thurston’s club. Freeman has headed up the Bahamas chapter of Toronto Wado-Kai for many years.
It was one of the best weeks of exercise and camaraderie we’ve ever experienced.
If you’re interested, call Sensei Lenore Eng at 416-451-5782 or e-mail her at bahamamas (at) live (dot) com.
