Some of our Scarlet Dragons have made some trips to some far off places to show off their stuff. Jacob D traveled to the great white north to compete as Kitchener Kicks lone representative! The long drive was not fruitless as Jacob came home with a Second in Weapons and a 3rd in forms.
Our other adventurer Cameron C. will be heading to Gatineau QC to compete in a WKC event for a warm up to the provincial qualifier in April. Good Luck Cameron, and keep your hands up.

March 'Break' Camp
Kitchener Kicks held another successful March 'Break' Camp again this year, treating the kids to a week of hard work and fun.
Campers had a full week of activities including guest speakers, board breaking, a mini tournament with some amazing trophies, and more. The week finished with everyone hitting the lanes at the local bowling alley.

Novice Grading, March 2 2013
One of the largest gradings saw the handing out of many new belts as young novices took some of the first steps on their life-long Martial Arts Journey. They did push ups, punches, kicks, forms and sparring for over a 3 hour period. Three of the students made the leap from the kids class into the world of the adult classes. Although these disciples knew their stuff, the pressure of the grading was evident in the the final hour, as they began to look fatigued, they persevered though and made it through. Congratulations to the 33 boys and girls who were presented with their new belts (and 3 sashes).
With some of them in their first grading they can now be prepared for their next one, and although it may be tougher and longer, the ground work is there for the development of some of the next great martial artists.

Kicking it in Steel Town
The Scarlet Dragons headed down Hwy 6 to compete in Hamilton on February 9th. Going in after a great tournament in Toronto determined to bring home more awards, the Dragons did not disappoint! 12 firsts, 2 seconds, 8 thirds, and 27 fourths and fifths.
Lots of practice and hard work will only lead to more and more. As the tournament trail gets into full swing we can look forward to a great season!!
