I started karate when I was 5 years old....I have made the Junior US Team twice in individual Kata and 4x in Team Kata. ...The feeling of being on the mat and other athletes pushing each other to train and work harder. As well The outcome is in your favor and all the hard work is payed off...My biggest win was winning the Karate 2 Youth League in 16-17 Male Kata....I get my inspiration from my Sensei Chad Eagan and Senpai Jessica Kwong. ..."Train insane or remain the same"
