The oldest established dojo in the IKK is Killester dojo which is located in St Brigids BNS KIllester. On Friday 21st June Shihan Kevin assisted by Sensei Shane Lalor, Sensei Jon Maher and Sensei Shane Mulhall performed a demonstration for about 150 boys from the school.
Shihan Kevin was introduced by the school principal and then proceeded to give a brief introduction to Kyokushin Karate. The three Sensei then performed a brief warmup followed by some Kihon and a Kata demonstration where they performed Pinan Sono Ni. This was followed by Sensei Shane Mulhall and Sensei Jon demonstrating Kumite. Next Sensei Shane Lalor and Sensei Jon did a tameshiwari demo - Sensei Shane breaking with Seiken and Sensei Jon with Shuto.
Shihan then answered some very far ranging questions from the boys - How long does it take to get a black belt? Where did Karate come from? Does it hurt doing breaks?
After the Q&A session the principal thanked Shihan and the Sensei for coming along.
