on your
7th World Title!!
The day after Christmas Head Instructor Justus Lawrence took off for the 20th Annual Super Grands International Karate Tournament in Sacramento, California.
Justus was thrilled to compete and watch the top Forms, Weapons and Sparring competitors from the 2010 NBL and NASKA karate tournament leagues!
(this is his final fight)
After numerous fights, Justus went into the Middle Weight Sparring finals undefeated and fought his toughest competitor of the season Josh May on the big stage. It was a tough fight which made winning all the better!Super Grands is a tournament held once a year in different parts of the US. It is the crowning event of the NBL and NASKA Karate Tournaments and is an invitation only event. Competitors come from Europe, Mexico, Canada and America and are the top winners from various Regional and National Tournaments.
He was the oldest competitor to win a title in the 18 - 34 division this year. Justus earned his first title when he was 20 years old and has won his other Sparring titles on and off through the years (family life and a pretty cool Karate studio has made attendance sporadic).
If you would like to see some of his fights or pictures of his prizes, visit our Facebook page (Team Justus – Bobby Lawrence Karate LINDON).
Thank you to all the students who helped him train and were anxiously cheering him on! Justus's first love has and always will be teaching, so knowing he's got some awesome students back home, makes it that much sweeter!
Congratulations Justus!
