The workshop was conducted by coach Ahmed Hamoud, the club’s karate instructor, who guided participants through an engaging and hands-on session.

This approach enabled participants to safely and confidently practice combat techniques in a structured setting.
The workshop highlighted not only the technical aspects but also the physical and educational benefits of this traditional sport.
