What a wonderful evening celebrating a truly deserving individual!

It was a proud moment to see Kyoshi Robert McInnes, 8th Dan, inducted into the Greater Saint John Sports Hall of Fame.

With his wife, Joyce, his family, and several members of his extended karate family there to share in the celebration, Sensei delivered a heartfelt and humble speech that truly reflected the man we have all come to know, respect and admire.

For decades, Sensei has dedicated himself to teaching, mentoring and inspiring generations of karate students. His influence extends well beyond the dojo, and the respect and admiration he has earned are a testament to the difference he has made in so many lives.

A tremendous honour for a remarkable man, teacher and mentor.

Congratulations, Sensei! An honour so richly deserved.

Sharing a few photos from the evening, along with his wonderful acceptance speech.

We’re so proud of Robert McInnes. Please keep him and his family (who will be joining him this weekend) in your prayers as he prepares to be inducted into the Greater Saint John Sports Hall of Fame in a special ceremony this Saturday.

His dojo had this to say:

“For decades, Sensei McInnes has dedicated his life to growing karate in our community(s) and across New Brunswick. His passion for teaching, unwavering commitment to excellence, and belief in every student have shaped not only our dojo, but the lives of countless people.

If you have trained at KV Karate, or under the New Brunswick Chito Ryu Association there is no doubt that your karate journey has been influenced by Sensei McInnes. Whether you were one of his first students at the YMCA or have only recently stepped onto the dojo floor, his knowledge, leadership, encouragement, and example have helped shape who we are as karatéka and as individuals.

This honour is a fitting recognition of a lifetime devoted to karate, sport, and the development of others. It is an achievement that our entire NBCR family celebrates with great pride.

Congratulations, Sensei McInnes! Thank you for everything you have given to our dojo over the past 60 years and continue to provide to the karate community. This recognition is richly deserved.”

We’re so proud of you, Robert McInnes! Thank you for your commitment to our community and, especially, our youth. God bless you.

If you see Robert around make sure to congratulate him and show him some love!
