Gaston Fortin Cup Karate Competition
Competitions offer athletes the opportunity to surpass themselves by presenting a meticulously worked kata and kumite. It is a moment that allows participants (children to adults) to work on their concentration and stress and emotion management. A day of competition is not only a day of discipline and learning, but also a day to have fun and meet other equally passionate athletes!
