Our students are capable because they challenge themselves both on and off the mats ๐
This year Calista is taking on The Push-Up Challenge to help raise money and awareness for mental health.
Sheโs stepping outside her comfort zone, setting herself a big goal and putting in the work every day - exactly the same mindset we try to develop at K1.
If youโd like to support Calista and this great cause, weโd love your help. If you have your own Push-up Challenge link put it in the comments as well. Lets share the love.

One quick note for everyone asking - Calistaโs nose is okay ๐
We did end up making a hospital trip just to be safe and now just need to keep an eye on it over the next few days. She was in great spirits afterwards and still fought like a champion.
Win, lose or draw, this is what itโs all about:
Pressure.
Experience.
Growth.
Proud of the whole team ๐ Videos coming....

Our kids are capable.
Not because we tell them they are -
because theyโve trained for it.
Pressure. Mistakes. Challenge.
Theyโve been there before.
At K1, confidence isnโt built through speeches or participation awards.
Itโs built through experience, structure, and learning how to stay calm under pressure.
Thatโs the difference.
Thatโs where real confidence comes from. ๐

Team KO are going to smash it at the Sydney City Open this Sunday.
We are taking the biggest team we've had for a while, so we are super excited to see the results.
Everyone has trained hard and given themselves the best opportunity for great results. We will film as much as possible and get some awesome highlights from the weekend.
