My Karate Journey

Discovering strength, discipline, and inner peace through martial arts. A journey that began in 2016 and continues to shape who I am today.

Explore My Journey

Beyond Code

Discipline, focus, and growth inside and outside the dojo.

In 2016, I traded ballet shoes for a white belt and stepped into the world of karate. What started as a trial session with a friend soon became a lifelong passion. Training with Kaisho Karate Bassersdorf in a tight-knit community helped shape not just my technique, but my mindset.

By 2025, I took on a new role teaching children karate. Watching them grow and develop under my guidance has become one of my most fulfilling experiences. I practice Shotokan Karate, drawn to its tradition and structure, and train at two different dojos, which has also introduced me to elements of Shorin-Ryu.

Karate is more than a hobby — it's a way of life.
