Awesome class again tonight guys! You all pushed really hard and once again, some massive improvements. Make sure you keep working on those hips and chamber arms to get it ingrained into your karate until its so natural you don't even need to think about it. It will come with time and a lot of effort. Brilliant effort from all of you, you all smashed it, especially pushing through the warm up and those brutal pyramid kicks. Just a reminder that there is no class on this Sunda...y 2nd, or next Tuesday 4th. Classes return to normal next Sunday 7th. Keep pushing hard and let me know what you want to work on over the coming weeks. Well done and I'll see you all on the 9th. Sensei Kait

A massive well done to everyone tonight. Although it was a smaller class and we did something a little out of the ordinary, you all adapted well and pushed really hard. On top of that, everyone then did an awesome job of applying the drills and partner work in to their katas. Well done to Corey for achieving student of the week! Massive leap tonight, really very impressed with the effort and concentration you put in and the improvement from start to end of class was out of th...is world! One very proud sensei! Hopefully you all enjoyed it tonight. Next week we will be working on a few different drills and again, applying that into kata and kumite. Well done all. Have a great week and looking forward to smashing it next week! Sensei Kait :)

Make sure you guys have a goal set for the year and maybe a bonus one or two to hit throughout the year, I'll be asking what they are so classes can be planned specifically for you guys and your goals! It'll be a good one, make sure you don't miss it.
