There are only a few classes left in our karate season 😦
We will have regular classes on May 12 and 19 with our wind-up on May 26.
There is always a chance that we may hold a workout in the summer so be sure to subscribe to this blog or check it occasionally for updates. We do post things during the summer as well. So be sure to keep checking.
See you at the dojo!
Congratulations to everyone who participated in the grading tonight! Everyone worked really hard and many new stripes and belts were awarded as a result. Way to go, everyone!!
We now have regular classes until the end of May.
For those of you who are interested, the MELFORT mini-tournament is being held this weekend in Melfort, SK.The information can be found here: 2015MelfortKarateTournamentPoster.
The grading is this Tuesday, April 28!
It will begin at 6:00 p.m. sharp for ALL STUDENTS. Arrive a few minutes early to do any warm up that you require. There will not be an official warm up.
We are trying a different structure to the grading in order to get everyone finished at a reasonable time. Please be patient as we work out any kinks that may arise in our attempts.
As always, you will be graded on basics such as dachi, tsuki, geri, and uke. Combinations, two-step (not the dance!), kata, and kumite will also be graded. Don’t know what some of those terms mean? Hmm… How well do you know your Japanese numbers?! And how about that belt knot? You know Sensei Kevin will be looking at that!
Good Luck! See you at the dojo!
There will be regular class this week for everyone to polish up for the grading next week.
The grading will be held on Tuesday, April 28. EVERYONE should be at the dojo ready to start at 6:00 pm sharp.
