Training Tournaments, hosted by Spivey Karate, are for all levels of competition from first timers to seasoned competitors.  Although there is a degree of competition, these events are provided as a safe and friendly environment to further development a "Warrior Spirit" that hones techniques, tests courage and builds self-esteem as students make their way through their martial arts training and onto future regional & state level events. Unlike Open Tournaments, winning first place is secondary to learning & improving. Participation by schools or students outside of Spivey Karate requires an invitation or approval by Soke Grandmaster Spivey.
