Super Sunday today!!

After warm ups and a technical stretching module we worked with Shindo skills, Kihon, Kumite drills and kata from Pinan Godan to Basai.

Good focus from all karate-ka today!

Today’s words of wisdom:

“What you are not changing, you are choosing.”

We had some great classes this week - Tuesday our room was unavailable, so we pivoted and Sensei Jennifer ran a zoom class where our focus was on a strong stretching module, full Geri curriculum, kihon and a couple of Kata.

Sunday was an all black-belt class so we doubled down on technical stretching, full Kihon modules and practicing accessory kata curriculum.

September is here and we are happy to welcome new students at any time.
