Description
Dear fellow Martial Artists,
As many of you already know we recently lost Sensei Sukwinder Manhas. He was such a positive role model for the martial arts community that it seemed appropriate to honour him in some meaningful way. With that in mind we will be running the Coastal Martial Arts Open Tournament “Celebrating a Legacy” on Saturday June 6th here in Port Alberni.
What better way to show our appreciation for an amazing martial artist, instructor, community leader and friend than by doing the thing that he loved most.
Please join the family, friends, and students of Coastal Martial Arts to celebrate a life of honour and heart. Together, we will support local martial arts competition and the community he inspired.
Sincerely,
Christine Tardif, Tournament Director
