2026 Karate Camp is in the books!
What a fantastic week watching the students and teachers alike work together for one purpose and that is to be better then we were yesterday.

Thank you to Jersey Judo Karate Academy Hanshi Norris and Mrs. Norris for their dedication to the martial arts and love for the students.
It is truly an honor being part of such an incredible organization.

Congratulations to all who were promoted and competed this year, and a special shout out to our newest Shodans
Jo Carandang Abigail Cassar & Aden Nguyen.

We are profoundly proud of you and look forward to teaching class with you in the black belt line!

That’s a wrap on classes as we approach Karate Camp 2026!

What you may not know is that two of the ladies in this photo are going to attempt one of the most difficult but one of the most rewarding challenges they may face and that is going for their Black Belts.

Abby and Jo Carandang
It’s been amazing watching the 2 of you grow as martial artists and we truly look forward to hopefully sharing the line with you!

See you at camp!

Karate isn’t just what happens on the mat. It’s who you become off the mat.
At Rising Fist Martial Arts students learn:

-Respect even when it’s hard

-Focus even when it’s noisy

-Effort even when they’re tired

-Courage even when they’re unsure

These aren’t just martial arts skills.
They’re life skills and they grow stronger every time you bow in.

Keep training. Keep rising.
