Padayon, Class of 2026! ๐ŸŒป

AAK-UPM proudly celebrates the achievements of Ate Andy, Ate Chynn, and Kuya Joram, exceptional members who have honed their grit, strength, and determination both within the dojo and beyond.

For our President Ate Andy, thank you for helping shape AAK-UPM to what it is today. You were always there to support and cheer for us ever since day one. Thank you for being there when us, the members went through challenges and adversity. You will always be the vibrant spark that made AAK-UPM what it is today.

For our Vice President Ate Chynn, thank you for always showing up. Youโ€™ve faced many challenges yourself, but you still took the time to be with us. Thank you for putting us first by being friendly, considerate and optimistic during every training session. You are always the person in AAK-UPM that reaches out to help us grow.

For Kuya Joram, we havenโ€™t met as much, but we thank you for your support and dedication to the club. Balancing your leadership roles while also being our member is a sign of your resilience.

We will continue to support you as you tread new paths and break through challenges with courage and perseverance. May your discipline and character inspire others wherever you go. โœจ๏ธ
