Eric Pratt

Eric has been a student at Huard’s Ju-jitsu Karate School in Winslow, Maine since the young age of 8.

He is in the 7^th grade at Benton Elementary School in Benton, Maine.  Eric does very well in school and we are all very proud of him.

He just recently tested for his third degree brown belt in Japanese Karate and Ju-jitsu on Friday December 13, 2002.  Eric is now on the path to becoming a black belt at Huard’s Ju-jitsu Karate Dojo in Winslow, Maine.

He trains two days a week and also assists his instructor Sensei Mark Huard sometimes teaching the Little Tigers and Dragons.

Eric is young man that knows exactly what he wants out of life and goes after it.  He is a very polite and well-mannered young man. We can really give a lot of credit to his parents for that.  They are some of the nicest people that I have ever met in my 24 years in the martial arts.

Eric is also a member of the HSK (Huard’s Sport Karate Team)

With only four years of training behind him, Eric has already accomplished more than a lot of adults in the martial arts.  Eric competes regionally in tournaments and does quite well.  He will compete in at least 10 tournaments each year or more.  He has won numerous trophies and awards from competitions throughout the state.

Eric recently started training with the Bo Staff with Sensei Luke Boucher.  Sensei Luke a 1^st degree black belt as been a part of the Huard’s school since the age of 6.  He is now going on 18 and will be graduating from high school this year. He is one of Northern New England’s top weapons, forms and fighting competitors.  He is also one of the greatest students (family members) in our organization.  Eric trains with Sensei Luke on a regular basis on competition forms and weapons.

Eric,
Best of luck with your continued success in the martial arts and in life! We are all very proud of you.

Eric just recently competed at the Grey Warrior Martial Arts Championship in Newport Maine and placed 1^st in his competition weapons division.  He has come along way with it.

Eric realizes that his martial arts training have helped him in other sports and in school.  It’s given him lots of confidence and self esteem.

Eric, we are all very proud of your accomplishments.  Keep up the great work in the martial arts.  You are a great kid with a wonderful family.
