Focus Martial Arts Awards Event Recognizes Outstanding Achievements in Brisbane
What an incredible journey it has been! On the memorable Awards Event day last 10th December, we gathered for a dazzling celebration at Focus Martial Arts, our beloved martial arts school in Brisbane. The event was nothing short of radiating talent, community spirit, and, above all, a deep appreciation for the dedication of our exceptional students.
The awards ceremony was a tribute to the hard work, commitment, and passion that each of our students brings to their martial arts journey. With personalised certificates and medals, the air was filled with a sense of accomplishment and camaraderie. It was a reflection of our commitment to providing a nurturing environment for families to thrive.
Embracing Excellence!
This event truly embodied the essence of martial arts as a journey of self-discovery, discipline, and continuous improvement. By recognising individual accomplishments, we also celebrated the collective spirit that makes our martial arts community in Brisbane truly exceptional.
A special highlight of the evening was the presentation of the Leadership Award.
Favourite Instructor 2023 - Nasir Hussain
Favourite Assistant Instructor 2023 - Wilson Percy
Favourite Leader 2023 - Joe D'sa
This coveted distinction, symbolising outstanding leadership and dedication, found its deserving recipient in Joe D’sa. His unwavering commitment to both skill and character sets a shining example for all our students.
Another thrilling moment was the announcement of the Favourite Instructor award, determined by the votes of our students. The honour went to the incredible Instructor Nasir, whose teaching style and ability to inspire have left a mark on our martial arts community.
And, in recognising the unsung heroes behind the scenes, we awarded the Favourite Assistant Instructor accolade to Wilson Percy. His tireless efforts in supporting both instructors and students alike have not gone unnoticed, and we extend our heartfelt appreciation for his invaluable contributions.
As we bid farewell to this truly spectacular event, we eagerly anticipate the adventures that the coming year holds for each and every one of us. Thank you for being a part of the Focus Martial Arts family. Until we meet again next year, keep the spirit alive and the kicks high!
