 Tony Forneris |
Bio: Tony Forneris Grand Champion Biography provided by Tony himself... "I’ve been training with Sensei Wancket for about 12 years. I joined her program through Park Nicollet Health Center and I have been studying with her ever since. I excelled through the ranks all the way to black belt and in the end it was well worth it. I've competed on her local competition team for about 9 years, been a top competitor locally for many years, winning many Grand Championships. Recently, I moved up the ranks in the national tournaments around the United States, where I compete in the 18 to 29 year old Black Belt Okinawan Form division. I continue to train with Sensei Wancket on a regular basis and I love every minute of it." Tony Forneris Video 2007 Diamond Nationals Tony's Form |

Instructor: Joyce Brekke -OWNER OF JK MARTIAL ARTS |
Bio: Joyce Brekke Joyce observed her daughter, Katie, achieve her black belt in October of 2004. At her daughter’s suggestion, Joyce eagerly started taking karate lessons. The first year she entered tournaments she won 1st place in every tournament she entered; 11 trophies. She has since added to that number! Teaching has been integral in Joyce’s life, as a swimming instructor, baton instructor, respiratory care instructor, in health care management and sales management. Her enthusiasm for the art of karate and her disciplined focus is transmitted to her students. They like her supportive manner and her understanding of how each student learns and progresses. Joyce expresses with humbleness the honor she feels as an instructor of this ancient art, and the value of being taught by a very talented and skilled Sensei Wancket-Yue. Joyce and her daughter Sensei Katie Pierren now own and run JK Martial Arts to continue Shorei-ryu studies for Sensei Wancket-Yue's former students.
