It's Time for Real Change! It's Time to Get things Going! It's Time to Make Things Happen. If not now then when?
Change - To do something different to get a better result. To keep the things that do work. To break from old bad habits (our comfort zone). To break free and accept our next challenges. The world has changed. We must adapt to the present and the evolving future environment. We must adapt and work within natures change

Host you Own Event
You can host your own event at your own dojo, at your home or back yard, at your work place, in the park or in a parking lot. There is nothing preventing you or your group from holding an event. You can use this as a fund raiser or not. As a way to recruit new members or to revitalize your clubs spirit.

Pass the word, let's make this huge annual event. Beginners welcomed with no experience. Beginners can learn by watching the YouTube viedo. Or they should be be able to pick it up around kata number 30 or so.
We didn't forget that Heains & Tekki's are not technically katas. We're just keeping it simple.
