Karaté Dojo Marseillais
Kids and grown-ups alike are welcome on the tatami to try karate with Karaté Dojo Marseillais! Initiation classes for all ages will be featured, as well as demos and all the explanation you need from expert karateka on the booth!
Presentation
Karaté Dojo Marseillais is a karate club created in July 2014 by Cédric PASQUAL, 2011 French champion and shotokan 3rd Dan, who used to run a high-level karate club in Marseille since 2001.
The club is made of two dôjô, the first for teens and adults, and the second for kids, with adapted classes for the youger ones (age 4-6) and the slightly older ones (7-13).
On top of many volunteers, the club has 10 Black Belt members, national and local champions, among which some are members of the Provence team, and another one is a former member of the Équipe de France.
Program
At Japan Expo Sud, Karaté Dojo Marseillais will show on their booth videos of the 2012 World Championship held in France. A karateka’s uniform will be exhibited to present to the public not only a kimono but also all that goes with a full equipment.
In groups, the club members will make demonstrations, with solo and team kata, demonstration fights with the explanation of the rules, and children’s demonstrations about basic techniques.
Initiation classes for kids and adults will be held on the Budô area, teaching the techniques for all ages.
