What's happening?

Hello!

Still here, haven't gone away... I've been enjoying some summer training (keeps me out of the rain!!!) Classes are continuing during the holidays and we're doing OK with numbers. We have one or two very dedicated students and they are the ones who make it all worthwhile. (You know who you are, I won't mention names, and one of you will probably blush if I did ;) )

I've been playing with some sticks with a couple of the lads, and we're having great fun with that. We're using escrima sticks because they are convenient and using them with kata "bunkai" has been very interesting (I'll post some info soon). Plus the circular flowing movements of the stick work are very beneficial for our karate.

Also coming up will be some more information on conditioning.... sit-ups, core training and some traditional methods for conditioning which you might find useful.
