Role Models

My Name is Thanduxolo Royi I am a 18 year old boy doing Grade11 at Nombulelo High School.I am a positive boy that loves working hard and communicating with people I always try to do my best at everything I do I push hard going forward.I am a boy that loves Sport too much I always put myself in any kind of Sport.I would like to be a Sport journalist one day
I play rugby at School and My local Sport is karate.I started karate at the age of 11 years old My parents wanted to be involved with soccer but I refused, this whole thing of like karate started I used to watch a lot of Martial Art movies with my sister Jackie Chan movies and John Claud Van Dam movies Every time after watching the movie I would do every single move that I saw alone.Until one day I went to the shop and saw a pamphlet on the door of the shop that was wrote: Joza Karate Club Karate lessons starting at 5:00-:6:30 I got exited I knew my dream was coming true I always dreamt of doing karate one day so that's how I started it. I am a trained by Sensei Mzwandile Matebese one of the best sensei i ever met in my life.

In karate we grade like you change your belt to another belt.So I am a 1st kyu brown belt now I will be grading for my black belt in August.Besides the Gradings I I have been in lots of karate Tournaments since the year I started it.I was dreaming one day to be selected to represent Eastern Cape karate in other Provinces that dream came trough.Last Year I was selected to go to Nationals in Cape Town I was very happy about it.I won a gold in kumite (fighting) I was the champ of the eastern Cape Male.I was even aiming higher than that this I got a chance to be selected to go to United World Karate South Africa Nationals which took place in Fish River Sun earlier this Year in March the 17-19.From those nationals they were not only Nationals but S.A trials for a team to go to the Worlds championships next year.There I won a silver medal for kata(FORMS)and Gold for kumite(fighting)I am a S.A champ.

Most young karatekas(people doing karate)I always want to be like me the way I do my fighting in karate they see as their Role Model not just in karate but outside too many young kids doing different sports always want to be at the level I am now with their sport.My Role Models I look up to is my sensei(Instructor) I love the way he trains us and how he helps us on karate things.My second Role model is Rafeal Aghayev a well known World Champ in karate kumite I love the way he fights and how he trains all the movements he does are Great.One Day I want to see myself in World championships and be a World champ#Osu karate Spirit#For the Love of#Joza Karate Club
