The next kata session will be held in Mulligar dojo on the 30th of November between 1pm and 3pm. Due to the great response at the last session the fee will be €7. This is the last session of this year and a good opportunity to get some extra tuition on kata if you are attempting grading on the 6th and 7th of December. Once again it will be open to all grades and please set a reminder. Also I won’t be teaching new kata’s at this session, just refining the ones known.

Hope to see a good turn out again.

On Saturday the 12th of October Sensei Jon will be running a kata training session between 3pm and 4pm in Mullingar dojo.

This session is first and foremost to practice kata. This first session is a test to see who is interested in kata, who wants to compete at kata and who would like to advance their kata further. The success of this kata training will lead way to further training sessions depending on numbers. If we don't get students to turn up then we will be discontinuing the training and successive training sessions may take a long time to come around again.

Initial cost for this hour is €8. If Sensei Jon gets a comfortable amount of students, he will drop the cost to suit the numbers.

This is open to all grades initially. It will become more selective when regular participants or the majority decide what they would like to do. I.e competition, grading or practice kata.

For all of those who have expressed an interest in kata, This is for you.

Osu!
