Tashiya Halahackone- President


Hi Guys! My name is Tashiya Halahackone and I will be your incoming president for this new 2021-2022 school year. I am extremely excited to be serving you guys this year and I'm looking forward to the exciting things we have planned. I am currently going into my third year at Western and studying to complete my Honors specialization in International Relations with a minor in economics. I have trained under the style of Shotokan Karate for about 8-9 years now and have had my first degree black for 5 years and have completed my coaches certification with the National Coaching association of Canada. I continue to teach at my local dojo when I travel back home and enjoy coaching young or old athletes whenever I am free 🙂 Once again I am very excited for this year to start, even though it might look very different this year! I can't wait to meet you all and please email me if you have any questions!!
