Congratulations to Dee Why karateka James Gudgion, confirmed at 4th kyu (purple belt) last Thursday. Like many of us at Dee Why dojo, James studied Shotokan Karate previously (in this case in the UK) and has now become confirmed in the SKIA family!!!
Hello - reaching out to former Dee Why Shotokan Karate Club students - we're always here if you would like to discuss resuming your training!! We know life can get in the way sometimes - maybe now is the time to revive the habit?!
After establishing Dee Why Shotokan Karate in 2013, Jon sensei (4th dan) is stepping back from running the club and passing operations on to two of his first students, Jim and Scott who both joined in 2013 as white belts.
