We are once again grateful for the continuous support of our Mayor Ross Mayor Roseller "Ross" H. Rizal and Cultural Affairs, Tourism and Sports Development Department - Calamba City in allowing us to train and improve consistently. To Shihan Asido C Nestor in getting us to today. We are also thankful for the organizers of the tournament for such opportunity for our player and in the future.

This event is one of the JKA Calamba Team’s small step for the future in the field of WKF. 3 of our senpais namely Keith Asido, Ren Gabriel Olivarez and Denzel Keneth Dasallas have participated the Coaches Seminar and passed their Coach License to further increase their experience and credibility in Karatedo Sports in WKF🥋. This will give a better opportunity for further participating both national and international competitions in the future!

Our one player, Carleigh Keileen Guevara have also competed in a kumite event which made to Quarter Finals with a very close score of 4 – 5. She may have not gotten the bronze medal, but she has displayed athleticism enough to compete against other national athletes. We commend her improved efforts and pursuit to further improve herself by participating international WKF event.

It may certainly be her first time in competing international WKF event but she is determined to come back stronger and better than ever. We have more things to improve, as winning and losing are both catalysts in triggering the spark and greater will in pushing through greater heights of improvement. Understanding that both of those scenarios offer lessons that we all must recognize as athletes and karatekas alike.

Congratulation once again to everyone. Remember to always enjoy the process and expect the result later to be savored. Thank you for your hard work everyone and good job! 🙇‍♂️

Maulan man ang araw, hindi dahilan para tumigil sa paghubog ng sarili. Sa bawat galaw, bawat suntok, at bawat training, patuloy nating pinapalakas hindi lamang ang katawan, kundi pati ang disiplina, tiyaga, at karakter.

At sa bawat training natin, dala natin ang mga aral, disiplina, at inspirasyong iniwan ni Shihan Asido. 🥋 His teachings and legacy will continue to live on in every student he inspired.

Train with purpose. Move with discipline. Carry the legacy forward.

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved Shihan Nestor C. Asido.

A strong and caring mentor that has strived for carrying the PKF 87’ and JKA Calamba's legacy itself. His passion for Karate and giving opportunities to aspiring karatedo athletes were his greatest gift that he has left us. Forging and molding every kind of student and understanding each of their own situations, made him an outstanding teacher and instructor of our club and team. A value that we all cherish and appreciate for his dedication in pursuing karate even with medical conditions at his later age. We are grateful for his support throughout his whole career and all these years. That is why we respect and love Shihan Nestor so much.

We are once again grateful to Shihan Nestor Asido. Even in his last moments, he has taught us that even in our worst condition, we just have to push through the pain in order to fully live our life. Thank you, Shihan Nestor Asido. The JKA Calamba Family wishes your peace to be a restful and a caring one. Ossu! 🙇‍♂️

Family and friends are invited to join us in honoring his life and offering prayers for the eternal repose of his soul.
