Osu everyone, Sensei Katrina here with some unfortunate but important information:

The Pearl City dojo will be CLOSED again as of tomorrow per the mayor's most recent order. We fall under a "fitness center" type of operation, and as the mayor describes in the attached video (starting at 3:05), we will not be permitted to hold group classes until September 5.

In the meantime, we will continue to produce our videos on our Youtube channel. We will also keep in touch via texts and emails.

We thank you all for your continued patience, understanding, and flexibility. Please keep yourselves and your ohana healthy and safe so we can return to the dojo as quickly as possible!

Our new module videos are now up on our Youtube channel! They are sorted by belt color, so please watch and train along with the videos that are appropriate for your rank.

Seriousness!
Try Hard!
Never Give Up!

Hope you all have a happy, safe 4th!

Osu everyone!

We are so pumped to resume regular classes tomorrow! We've been spending the last several weeks trying to prepare the dojo in order to give everyone a safe, positive training environment. Please watch this short video to familiarize yourselves with our new class procedures.

If you haven't scheduled yourself for a class yet, please message or text us so we can assign you to your dedicated once-a-week class.

Congratulations to our newest black belts: Sullivan, Patrick, and Martha!

We were authorized to give them a special exam last night since these three will be moving off-island soon, and we didn’t go easy on them. They have trained extra hard over the past couple months and it really showed!

Best of wishes to each of you as you move on to new experiences, new learning, and new adventures. Osu!

Osu everyone! Yet another update on reopening the dojo...

We will now be resuming classes on June 27th, a week later than expected. We just wanted to make extra sure that we were prepared to open safely.

Based on responses I got from you folks, it seems like most PH students are more inclined to do their weekly in-person class on the weekends.

Attached is the current schedule as planned. Please let me know which day/class you’d like to reserve. Since we’re only operating at 50% capacity, we can only have 15 students per class, so don’t delay!

Osu!
Sensei Katrina
