Congratulations to & for the hard work they’ve put in. Alejandra Payan is a GOLD medalist with and representative for TEAM USA. Sensei Enrique Partida and her parents have done a honorary job getting her this far. I can’t wait to see what the future holds for Ale. I believe in her & so does her country. 🇺🇸🥋❤️💐
When I was appointed Para-Karate Coach 🇺🇸 I made it my personal goal to bring awareness to Para-Karate. I want every city in our country to know what PARA-KARATE is. Special thanks to Francia with the city of San Luis for helping me make this happen. Thank you to the City of for the incredible award.❤️ This is only the beginning…

Our Heart & Soul… The Duncan Family ❤️

I couldn’t be prouder of these two remarkable siblings — our very first black belts. They may have started Para-Karate at different times and earned their black belts in different years, but one thing has always been the same… the sibling rivalry is REAL. Not the dark or ugly kind — but the kind that inspires, motivates, and pushes them to be their absolute best.

They are our dojo’s Sempais, and they lead with their hearts. At USA Open & the National Championship, they congratulated every competitor — win or lose. They both truly love helping others.

Sempai Jamie is the warm hug that makes the world feel safe. He’s always guiding our younger athletes through their katas with patience and kindness.
Sempai Sierra? She’s our fierce protector of spirits — the one who runs to the side of an athlete having a meltdown, ready to steady their heart. She hates physical touch, but will wrap her arms around anyone in tears.

My dojo wouldn’t be the same without them. They inspire every single one of our Para-Karate

And now… stay tuned. Our baby Duncan is testing for black belt this month — and just thinking about it brings tears to my eyes. 🥋❤️

🖤 Silence in the Chaos

I’m obsessed with the way Karate-Do shapes us… mind, body, and soul.

The moment I stepped into the tatami, everything else disappeared. The noise of the crowd? Gone. The chaos? Muted.
All I could hear… was my Shihan.
My father.
His voice cut through the silence like a guiding light. The world went quiet—except for him.

Let’s not forget my opponent—or sometimes opponents.
Yes, my Shihan would make us fight multiple people at once. And somehow, even with my eyes scanning the room, it was my ears that guided me. I could hear where every attacker was—through breath, through footsteps, through energy.

He wasn’t just teaching me how to fight.
He was teaching me how to listen.
How to feel.
How to trust my intuition.
How to stay grounded in the storm.

Karate-Do isn’t just what I do.
It’s who I am.

🕊️ On this quiet Sunday, my heart reflects on how deeply I miss my Shihan. The lessons he left behind… they echo in everything I do. His teachings weren’t just for the dojo—they were for life.

What’s the greatest lesson your Shihan or Sensei taught you? I’d love to hear your stories. Let’s honor them together. 🤍

Congratulations to Tory on earning her black belt!
If you know Tory, you know she’s full of life and completely free-spirited—there’s no convincing her to do something unless she wants to do it.

Nine years ago, Tory couldn’t even sit on the floor and stand back up on her own. Today, she does it with confidence—and so much more.

During her black belt exam, Tory was silent, focused, and determined. She didn’t make a single mistake and answered all of her theory questions correctly.

As a dojo family, we are incredibly proud of her. Even our current black belts showed up to support this amazing milestone.

Way to go, Sempai Tory—you inspire us all!
