Many of my students will be aware of the large number of children who turned up for this Wednesday’s (10th November) Junior Fighting Fit class.

As we have lot of members, but a small dojo, I have to carefully manage classes, and I have to address the issue of the Wednesday Junior Fighting Fit class, which this week was too busy!

So; from Wednesday 17th November, there will be changes made to the timetable, which hopefully will not inconvenience anyone, but will benefit all children. see TIMETABLE AT BOTTOM OF PAGE

Wednesdays will be Fighting Fit evenings, with Junior Novices at 5pm, Junior Advanced at 6pm and Adults at 7pm.

For those not familiar with these classes, they’re classes which focus on agility, flexibility, general fitness and of course Sparring. Therefore all who attend should have a gum shield and a pair of Karate sparring mitts. (As we can’t share mitts these days) We have a limited number of mitts and Gumshields for sale.

Junior novice means Beginner-Purple Belt 4th Kyu, Advanced means Black & Brown Belts.

Sparring is an important aspect of Karate and I would encourage ALL CHILDREN from six, to have a go at these classes!

ALSO PLEASE NOTE: Club night will now be an evening of Basics, Kata and Fighting Fit!

I again would encourage ALL members to attend Fridays Club Night, a class for everyone! And bring your Gumshield and mitts to class!

All Junior Black and Brown Belts should take their mitts and Gumshield to all classes (except Kata Classes)
