Mitchum Family

    Many of you know Josh and Emily Mitchum who have 2 children (Charlie & Katie Faye) attending classes in our Ridgeland location.  Their 15 month old baby died suddenly last week.  We are heart broken for them and want to help in anyway we can.  

     One available way we can help is with a meal train… you can sign up to cook and deliver a meal to them or donate money for someone else to buy supplies and cook for them.  The Bible tells us to rejoice with those who rejoice and to weep with those who weep…and right now many of us are weeping with the Mitchum family.  

Every time they come to my mind, I lift a prayer for peace and comfort and the grace of God to help them through this terrible time.

Hyper Fight Club Sparring Class Saturday, 9/17 10:00 AM

Once students earn PURPLE BELT, sparring becomes a required part of their curriculum. We hold Hyper Fight Club classes approximately once a month on a Saturday morning. Purple Belt and up students are required to attend at least one HFC class per test cycle… so one every 12 weeks. If you are a new Purple Belt, talk to Mrs. Woods about ordering your sparing gear ASAP, so you don’t miss out on your next belt test!

Our students work hard … but they like to have FUN too. What could be more fun then doing karate WITH YOUR FRIEDS?!  We invite all students to bring a buddy to class the week of September 19-22. We will have a class full of karate challenges and our students will get to help teach their friends some real karate techniques!  We have set up a “Buddy Week” event in the app and we ask that all guests be registered prior to attending class so that we have a signed waiver on hand. (Students do NOT need to register - only register your guests.)  Please share this link with the parents of the buddy you plan to bring.  https://www.dunamiskarate.org/event/?event_id=388370/&from=h

Gopher Hill Festival Performance Saturday, October 8th 1:00 PM

We have performed for every Gopher Hill Festival since 2003, and this year we will be taking it up another level. The theme of the festival is “A Walk Down Memory Lane” and everything from our performance t-shirt (family tree tee) to the music we’ve chosen is matching that them. We look forward to WOWing the crowd as we do every year.  Remember we want ALL our students to participate, even our Krav Maga students. The uniform for this performance will be the “family tree” t-shirt, traditional (or club) karate pants, belt and SNEAKERS!  We will meet at Dunamis Karate around 11:30ish (after the parade) to practice, then we will walk from Dunamis Karate over to Main St. where we will perform in front of the stage!

CLOSED Oct. 6-7 Due to the Festival Activities, we will not hold any classes on Thurs/Friday. We encourage everyone to support the Gopher Hill Festival activities.
