🥋 *Osaka to Yokohama: A Journey of Mastery & Friendship!* 🇯🇵✨

Our senior members recently returned from an incredible trip to Japan for two premier events: the Jitsuekai Kata Seminar in Osaka and the JKF Gojukai Kata Seminar & Tournament in Yokohama! 🥋🔥

Here are the highlights from our trip:

* Mastering the Craft: 12 senior members trained under JKF Gojukai masters, refining fundamental techniques, kata precision, and the true spirit of Karate-do.

* Stepping onto the Tatami: Massive respect to our veterans Law, Jayson, and Douglas for stepping up in the Veterans Kata event in Yokohama! All three gave their absolute all in their respective bouts. 🥋👏

* Global Connections: Off the mats, our team attended the welcome reception at Yokohama Geihinkan, building international friendships with karateka from around the globe. 🌍🤝

A huge milestone for our club in growth, learning, and walking the path of martial arts together. OSS! 🥋💫

On 26th July, 9 of our resilient young karate-kas (aged 8 to 18) stepped onto the tatami at the Singapore Badminton Hall @ Expo to represent GRKAS Singapore! Competing against over 200 participants from across Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia, our team showcased grit, discipline, and heart. We are beyond proud to celebrate their impressive achievements across both Kata and Kumite events! 🏆🔥

🔥 KUMITE RESULTS 🔥
• 🥈 Charleston – Silver (a hard-fought final tie 9-9, missing out by Senshu!)🥈 Charisse – Silver (tied 3-3, decided by Senshu)🥈 Jarvis – Silver🥈 Isaac – Silver

A special shoutout to Adam and Joshua, who showed true courage in the tough 8-9 yrs and Cadet divisions. Every fight, victory, or loss is a step forward in the journey of a true martial artist. We couldn't be prouder of your determination! 💪⚡

To all our champions and competitors: You represented GRKAS with honour, dignity, and passion.

*Reflecting on the GRKAS Kata Seminar and Dan Grading 2026*

​On June 27 and 28, the Goju-Ryu Karate-Do Association Singapore (GRKAS) successfully hosted its international Kata Seminar and Grading at Kebun Baru Community Club.

​We were privileged to welcome MP Kwek, Member of Parliament and Advisor to Kebun Baru CC and Patron to GRKAS, as our Guest of Honour for the opening ceremony.

​The two-day event brought together over 80 practitioners from Singapore, Australia and Hong Kong. It was a masterclass in tradition and technique, featuring invaluable instruction from senior JKF Gojukai Masters: Sato Sensei, Takegawa Sensei, Maekawa Sensei, and Horiuchi Sensei.

​ *Key Highlights:*

​ *Technical Excellence:* Deep-dive sessions into advanced kata and its applications, fostering a high level of regional knowledge exchange.

​ *The Ultimate Test:* The weekend culminated in the JKF Gojukai Dan grading, marking a significant milestone in each participant's personal karate journey.

​ *Camaraderie* : The event concluded with a celebratory Sayonara Dinner, uniting the regional karate community over good food and shared fellowship.

​Thank you to everyone who contributed to the success of this milestone event. We hope to see you next year!
