SCKF Kendo Shinsa

Our dojo attended the SCKF shinsa last weekend. I passed the exam and now 1-kyu rank. Just 1 rank away from getting my blackbelt.
Updated: My friend got a video of one of my matches. I'm in the blue uniform. This is my first of 2 matches

Pirate Days

Recently did pirate days in Catalina. Been pretty lazy since the trip as I've been catching up on my work both my work work and my homework. I'll post some pics later.

What I like about Catalina's pirate days is it's a total immersion. You pretty much have a whole pirate day, not just a couple hours in a park with people dressed like pirates and go home like you would at a Renaissance fair.

Update: Posted pics


For the last 3 years we've been running the Hoosegow tug of war games since the kids activities have been scaled down.



At night it's time for the grown up pirates to party.
