- I started karate in my first year with no previous experience in martial arts. I had always wanted to learn to fight,
- and after seeing a demonstration of karate at the ARC I decided to join Nihon Karate Club at UCI. At first I was just trying
- it out to see if I would enjoy it, but now karate has become one of my passions in life. Every time I attend a training, I feel
- like I’m making a step towards becoming a better and stronger person. The community is very welcoming, and I have been learning a
- lot from Sensei Bruce Nguyen and all of the others who also pursue karate. I hope to continue training throughout college, and I am
- grateful to be part of the karate community.

- I first started karate when I was about 3 years old, and I’m currently a shodan at a Shotokan-based dojo.
-
- I joined the Nihon Karate Club in my first year at UCI because I wanted to get back into karate after my 4-year hiatus of doing color guard.
- I didn’t attend practice frequently at first, but I started to after I decided to enter a tournament. I was able to improve my rusty technique
- and learn a new style of karate. During this time, I started becoming more comfortable and created bonds with the other members in the club.
- I enjoy having this community of people with diverse backgrounds who come together to practice an art and learn to protect ourselves. I’m looking
- forward to sharing more of these experiences with everyone!
