Sensei Jon Wicks, World Chief Instructor of WIKF, visited Canada again this year during the weekend of Nov 1 to 3. He was assisted by Sensei Ken Corrigan, the Canadian Chief Instructor of WIKF. The training sessions were held in Ontario again at our Brampton dojo.

As martial artists, we all know the importance of staying in top physical shape to excel in our training and competitions. But what about when we're not in the dojo or gym? How do you personally stay in peak physical condition outside of your karate training?
