I would like to personally thank the over 30 people that attended the celebration of the 13th anniversary of CARISMA on Sat 16 June.

As usual it was great seeing a mix of people of all ages and levels of seniority within the club ranging from beginners from the latest beginners’ course all the way to instructors as well as several people that moved on and no longer train at CARISMA but still come back to Cambridge to join our parties.

Starting at 3PM the party went on till the early hours of Sunday morning.  Special thanks to Penka, Andrea, Samir and Theo that kindly helped with setup and catering.

Cambridge University Kickboxing Society won yesterday the 5th Kickboxing Varsity match vs. Oxford University Kickboxing Club for a final result of 5-4!

Here is the final fight card with the winners:

Club Fighter Club Fighter Winner
CU Cenan Djenan vs. OX Ben Todd Cenan
CU Daphne Tsalli vs. OX Leah Atherton Daphne

I was proud of the final result although the Oxford athletes performed well and in this occasion demonstrated a distinct improvement of their technique pushing our athletes into some seriously tough fights.

It was a pleasure finishing the day in a very friendly way with the whole Oxford team and good part of our fighters at a local bar for some well deserved beers.

More details, videos, pictures and so on will follow in the next few days.
