Best of luck to our BC athletes as they head to Montréal for the North American Cup this Saturday, June 20th, 2026 held in conjunction with the Montréal Open.

We are proud to cheer on Julia Maclean, Kiandokht Ghodsi, Claudia Laos-Loo, Fernando Aguilera, and Haruki Mori as they represent Canada on the North American stage. Their hard work, dedication, and commitment have earned them this opportunity to compete against some of the continent’s best athletes.

This competition is especially important as it serves as a key qualifier on the road to the 2027 Pan American Games, making every performance and result count toward future international opportunities. The gold medallist from each category will earn their spot in Lima, Peru in Summer 2027.

We wish all of our athletes the very best as they take on this challenge. Compete with confidence, enjoy the experience, and know that the entire BC community is behind you. Good luck, Team BC athletes!

It is with deep sadness that Karate BC announces the passing of Paul Sexton, a long-time member of our organization and a valued member of our tournament referee community.

Paul’s dedication to karate and his generous spirit left a lasting impression on all who knew him. He gave his time and energy so freely, and his kindness, quiet strength, and commitment to our community will not be forgotten.

On behalf of Karate BC, we extend our heartfelt condolences to Paul’s family, friends, and all those who had the privilege of knowing him. He was a friend to many and will be greatly missed and fondly remembered.

Words in memory of Paul, from some of his students:

“A few strengths come to mind…Humble and patient, always taking the time to help students to learn at their own pace and what they were capable of. It didn’t matter if they were a first-time white belt or an experienced black belt. Generous. He not only taught karate but shared his vast knowledge of the history of it and the meanings behind the techniques and the katas.”

“His passion for learning and improving himself is inspiring, it makes others want to improve themselves.”

“I’m grateful that my children have known him and have such a great role model and mentor.”

“Paul is in the true sense of the word, a Sensei.”

“His self discipline and consistency is also another strength and how he conveyed that. Especially to kids that are learning a martial art like karate.”

Paul was a great inspiration to many people in life in so many ways. He was always in a good mood and just wanted to spread happiness. We did know that he was sick, but he still found the strength to come to his last seminar in Qualicum for his Yondan test and passed with flying colours. He wanted to go out his own way. Nobody can argue with that. He did it his way. You will truly be missed my friend, rest in peace.” – Holly Molgaard-Tuttle
“Giving them the confidence to walk away from situations but defend themselves as a last resort.”

Karate BC, Working & Training on Unceded Territories

We are grateful to work and train on the unceded, ancestral, and traditional lands of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), səl̓ílwətaʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh), and skwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) Nations. These Nations have cared for this region since time immemorial, and we honour their enduring connection to these lands.

At Karate BC, we strive to honour this rich heritage through:

  • Respectful practices – acknowledging and embracing Indigenous cultures and teachings.
  • Inclusive community – welcoming participants of all backgrounds to learn, grow, and train together.
  • Shared stewardship – working to preserve and protect the land that gives us the privilege to practice.

We thank the Musqueam, Tsleil-Waututh, and Squamish Nations for their ongoing welcome and stewardship. We are committed to deepening our understanding, respect, and gratitude every day.
