A big thank you to Sensei Ben Harvey for spending the morning with our younger elite athletes! 🥋

The kids had an awesome session and got to learn from one of Australia’s best. Your knowledge, experience and encouragement made a real impact and our athletes took away plenty they can work on as they continue to develop.

We really appreciate you giving up your time to support the next generation of competitors. benharveyyy_ sensei_alexdd
