I started Karate when I was five years old. I am now eleven and almost a brown belt. My
favorite part of karate is Katas. Katas help me to make sure that my punches, kicks,
stances, and blocks are perfected. By doing this, karate teaches me focus and
self-discipline.

Four years ago, I took my very first step of entering the world of Martial Arts - walking
through the door. Ever since then, I have grown both inside and outside of the Dojo. We
are always reminded by our Senseis that it has to come from the heart and that we have
to have good "kokoro" - heart/spirit. Every time I enter the Dojo, my stomach rumbles
with an unbearable hunger for a new technique to eat off of. I know I am speaking not
only for myself, but for my entire Dojo family when I say we have a passion to learn and
study the arts.

I love karate because I get to learn a lot and the senseis are a lot of fun. My favorite days
are Wednesday and Thursdays because I work hard. My favorite memory is when I got
my first yellow tip.

Karate is fun. It keeps me healthy and it works out my muscles. It is awesome! My abs
are getting bigger from doing exercises! I like sparring because it teaches me how to
defend myself on the street. Karate makes me feel strong. My favorite memory is when I
got my first tip.

I love karate! It is fun to do karate because it helps me learn how to defend myself. I like
Thursday classes the best because we get to learn about what would happen on the street.
I used to be shy but now I am more confident. My favorite memory is my first
promotion.

Not long ago, my friend Felicia asked me if I would like to go to karate with her. I said
"sure," I thought it would be a fun experience. When I first walked through the doors, I
was nervous and I didn't know what to expect. But I knew one thing, I had a heart made
for Martial Arts. It was so much fun! It teaches children discipline and self-defense.

Hi my name is Samantha. My favorite part of Karate is that with all the punches and
kicks you learn you can protect yourself in a fight. My other favorite part about Karate is
that one day you can become a Sensei and teach all the punches and kicks to younger
ranks and higher ranks. I love Karate. I also think that the Senseis there are the best too.
Thats why they inspire me to become a Sensei. Since I started taking Karate, my grades
are better and I feel better about myself. I want to continue training and be just like my
Senseis one day.
