ABOUT ME
Hi! I’m Colin from Winterthur, Switzerland. I’ve been training karate since I was five years old — which means I’ve already spent more than half my life on the tatami. I train at the Kimura Shukokai Dojos in Winterthur, Wetzikon, and Volketswil under Sensei Loges, and also at the regional training center in Sursee.
Today, I hold the 1st Kyu (final brown belt), have completed over 900 training sessions, and have earned medals at national and international tournaments across Europe.
What’s next?
I have recently moved up to the U14 category and my goal now is to establish myself in this new age group. My goals for the coming years are clear:
- defend my national title
- participate in international ranking tournaments, such as
- International Junior Open, Switzerland (Basel)
- Eurocup, Austria
- International Karate Grand Prix, Poland
- Lion Cup, Luxembourg
- pass the exam for my Black Belt (1st Dan)
Purpose. Passion. Progress.
