We received this message form Sensei Scott Middleton, and he asked us to share it with everyone!

Its been a busy year for myself, and WTKO Canada. With many vibrant events, examinations, and interactions with members it feels like the pulse of the group is really in sync. In 2024 the Karate community can continue to expect this energy.

JANUARY TO MARCH (See adverts below):

• At the end of January I will be in Winnipeg, Lac du Bonnet, and back to Winnipeg. It is a very popular weekend, and for myself it's the first "event" I accept on a calendar year as its important for me to be surrounded by my close members, and colleagues to ensure the year starts off correctly. We have many members from across Manitoba, but lets all come together!

• In February I will be back to Russell. Always a great time. Many of my personal students at Traditional Karate of Brandon travel for this event. Its been a tradition of ours to all travel together, and make an adventure out of it. I encourage the same from everyone.

• This has not been confirmed yet, but perhaps on February 29th I may offer a "WTKO Canada Free Members Event" as I will be in Winnipeg anyways. I offered three of these events in 2023, and of course they are very popular! Its important to give back to our members. I just have to find a Dojo somewhere in Winnipeg that would like to host the event??

• In March I will be teaching at our annual WTKO Winter Camp / Online event.

• Later in March we will have our WTKO Canada Invitational Spring Seminar --- Dates, guest, and details TBA.

APRIL TO JUNE:

• In April or May I will return once again to Tillsonburg and Toronto.
• In April I will be teaching in Scotland, Ireland, and England.

JULY TO SEPTEMBER:

• Travel to Portugal for WTKO Summer Camp!
• August we will be having our WTKO Canada Invitational Summer Seminar!
• Perhaps a return visit in September to Ontario.

OCTOBER TO DECEMBER:

• Travelling to Stavanger, Norway in October.
• In November we will once again have our annual WTKO Canada Invitational Fall Seminar. Our guest will be a good friend, and an instructor from Norway!
