Keener Award
by Sensei Fran Turner

A number of students commented about Dariuscz Macalka's focussed training in the weeks leading up to the last round of tests. They said that his intensity was an inspiration to them. Congratulations, Dariuscz, for a good test and for sparking the practice of your fellow students.

Editor's note: although a recent injury has pevented Dariuscz from attending classes for the last few weeks, he regularly comes to watch. While he is not practicing, Dariuscz somehow manages to make himself part of the class—smiling, making occasional comments, egging people on. This kind of enthusiasm is more than inspiring: with Darius watching, those of us on the mat can hardly allow ourselves to slack off. Hope to see you back in training soon, Dariuscz!
