🥋 Huge Congratulations to Jesse & Pierre! 🥋

Both of our warriors stepped up yesterday at the Young Lions Challenge, and they absolutely delivered.

💥 Pierre competed in light contact continuous and full contact —
• 🥉 3rd place in light contact
• 🥇 1st place in full contact
An awesome effort across two divisions!

💥 Jesse competed in full contact and smashed it —
• 🥇 1st place
Strong, composed, and powerful performance.

Top effort from both of you — we are super proud of how you represented the dojo.

We also had a few fighters who weren’t matched, unwell or had to pull out on the day, but there are plenty of opportunities coming up, including next week’s Chikara One Match Challenge, The Musashi Cup August 29/30, IKON Tournament 13th September and Kenshin Tournament 4th October. The competition season is in full swing and we love seeing everyone keen to get involved.

Rest up, recover well, and let’s keep the momentum rolling. 👊🔥
