welcome to our last edition of Zanshin for 20�4. As we close 2014 and embark on a new journey in 2015, on behalf of the management of the TKA, I wish to sincerely thank everyone who contributed their time, talent and finances to ensure that the TKA had a successful year. We successfully hosted the 11th
IKD/CKC Caribbean Championships in August and apart from doing very well in this event, we also gained many medals in TTKU hosted or recognized tournaments. As is also customary, some of our members got the opportunity to represent Trinidad and Tobago at an international level.
2015 will be an important year for us as we intensify training for the 2nd IKD World tournament in July, at the Ryerson University, Toronto Canada. All members are encouraged to come out in their numbers to train for this prestigious event where TKA members will compete against some of the best in the world.
In 2015, let us not just recite the Dojo Kun but live it as we Seek Perfection of Character, are Faithful to our friends, family and loved ones, Endeavour to achieve our goals, Refrain from Violent Behaviour and Respect Others.
RegardsShihan Wesley Dexter Shim Chairman & Chief Instructor TKA(IKD)
in focus on target
seek perfection of character ~ be faithful ~ endeavour ~ respect others ~ refrain from violent behaviour

In Zanshin #20, the picture of our patron, Sir David Clarke, was inadvertently omitted from the Profile.
Sensie Clarke was appointed President of the International Karate Daigaku In June 2011. His extensive travel schedule allowed him to promote IKD karate to many countries around the world.

The TKA’s newest club the ‘Tobago Shotokan Spirit Warriors’ was founded on January 2, 2014 by Sensei Leo Grant Jr. and his wife Fiona Grant Jr. Since its inception the club has been very active. In April the club hosted its first event called ‘Fitness Blast,’ which was a mixture of physical challenges such as the person who could do the most pushups and a kata competition. Sensei Dean Avril of the UWI Shotokan Karate Club was present as a guest judge.
The club also held its first grading in April. Eighteen (18) students qualified to be graded. Senseis Dexter Shim and Earl Wilson conducted the examinations. All students were successful and the club received favourable comments on its performance to the delight of their Sensei.
On June 29th, 2014 the club participated in the TAK Demo Classic tournament. This was the club’s first tournament, and it sent up nine (9) competitors with excellent results. The second grading was held on the 26th July, 2014 and all sixteen (16) students. Were successful with two (2) brown belts moving up to 1st Kyu.
