SQUAD TRAINING & TOURNAMENT NEWS
The emphasis within Devon Wado-Ryu Karate-Do Kai is and always as been to adhere to the deeper meanings of Japanese Budo and to ultimately study and benefit from a lifetime of dedicated study and practice in an honourable, loyal and sincere way. We do not consider ourselves to be a "competition" dojo, in saying that our group do compete at all levels of competition keeping this aspect separate from our normal training and classes. We believe and know from experience it can bring many benefits for younger people in particular, if done in the correct manner. Over the past four decades or more, members of our group have had an incredible amount of success both as competitors and as officials at all levels of tournaments both within Wado-Ryu Karate-Do and within the World Karate Federation including at International level in both Europe and Japan.
