HANFORD - Ibadete Leka came out in her indigo karate “dogi” outfit with a black belt and - with apparent flexibility and deftness - began showing the martial art forms as a warm-up.
Leka chops the air with her elbows, jumps, ducks and moves with rhythm and speed as she snaps out her feet in high kicks and then spinning back kicks.
“OK, who wants to fight me now?,” Leka quips and brings some cheer to a tiny crowd of students as she wipes the sweat off her forehead. In mid-May, this was a glimpse caught at one of her workshops at the local YMCA.
This is Iba - the karate girl form the Hanford magazine that was advertised on 2005,

Well, here we teach and train Hand 2Hand combat wich is mixed of martial arts and kickbxing, pretty challenging.
