Shotokan Karate Walvis Bay is saddened at the passing of a beloved karate mother, Ronell Lombard Pretorius. She has been part of our dojo family for decades.

She was strong and kind with a heart of gold. Although she didn't do karate herself, she embodied the Dojo Kun. Her sons Sensei Arno and Michail have been our students for many years. We wish her family and friends strength during this difficult time. To Ronell, until we meet again. You will be missed dearly.
