Karate Life Studios in St.Louis hosted their 2nd annual tournament on February 5th, 2005. We took a team of ten competitors with us and did really well medal wise with a total of 22 medals being won. The tournament was quite long and some competitors not starting until nearly 6 p.m. Having said that, it was still a good tournament with very little in the way of attitude from the competitors.
