Next Grading in February 2010

Hi,

The next grading will take place on 26th February and not on 19th as initially planned. This will give everybody time to revise katas and Kihons.

Please remember that there is no guarantee that you will grade successfully and I would encourage you to discuss with Sensei Charles to check if you (or your children) are ready for grading before presenting for grading. Knowledge of the appropriate Kata is a requirement.

to grade for the folllowing belts, here is the Kata required:

Orange – Heian Shodan

Blue – Heian Nidan

1st Green – Heian Sandan

2nd Green – Heian Yondan

1st Purple – Heian Godan

Second Purple – Tekki Shodan.

January 10th Workshop cancelled

Due to the bad weather and the fact that many would not be able to travel, we have decided to cancel the seminar initially planned for the 10th January in Killorglin Sports Complex. We will try to reschedule in a few weeks once the snow and frost has stopped. Apologies …
