Congratulations and THANK YOU ALL!
Today marks a truly special milestone β the 3rd birthday of HAITO KARATE! πππ
What a journey itβs been. Looking back reminds us just how far weβve come together β from a small group of passionate karateka to a thriving community full of energy, determination, and heart.
β¨ Year One β Planting the Seeds
Two years ago, we celebrated not one, but two birthdays β one at our Bretton location and another at Hampton.
At that time, we were still shaping our identity, creating a shared spirit across two venues, and building the foundations of what HAITO KARATE would become.
Those early days were full of energy, learning, and excitement β the spark that started it all.
β¨ Year Two β Finding Our Home
Our second birthday was even more meaningful. It was the first time we celebrated inside our very own full-time Dojo β a place that became more than just mats and walls.
That moment marked a turning point.
From then on, karate was no longer just a class you attend β it became a home, a community, and a family.
β¨ Year Three β Growing Stronger Together
And now, here we are β three years strong, surrounded by students, parents, and friends who have helped shape HAITO KARATE into what it is today.
This celebration isnβt just about candles or confetti β itβs about the spirit, resilience, and dedication of everyone who steps onto the mat.
Over these 3 years, weβve:
π₯ Trained hard and earned new belts
πͺ Built strength and confidence
β€οΈ Formed friendships and community that go beyond training
Each student β from the youngest beginner to the most experienced black belt β brings something unique. Together, you embody what it truly means to be part of HAITO KARATE.
π Thank You
To all parents, families, and supporters β thank you for believing in us from the start.
Your encouragement, patience, and positivity keep our dojo strong and growing.
And to our students β you are the heartbeat of this dojo. Every class, every bow, every effort matters. You make HAITO KARATE what it is today.
π₯ The Future Is Bright
Hereβs to another year of growth, discipline, fun, and new achievements.
The journey is far from over β in fact, it feels like weβre only just getting started.
Happy 3rd Birthday, HAITO KARATE! ππ
Letβs make the next year our best one yet.
Osu!
