Though many are on Summer Break, for some of us, Summer means JKA training has started, and we’re pushing hard!🔥🥋

At JKA GWU, we train with discipline, focus, and spirit. Every class is a chance to get stronger, sharper, and better than yesterday.

Summer heat won’t stop us. We’re just getting started.

As part of GWU Sexual Assault Awareness Month, our club partnered with members of Students Against Sexual Assault to provide self-defense, awareness, and simple ways to protect yourself. It was a great experience to build confidence and share practical skills and learning from each other.
