A change in plans...we were in the hall tonight after the booking for the hall was cancelled. Thanks to Steven for making the trek to the classroom and putting a note on the door.

It was a cold night and taking the ugg boots and jacket off was a bit difficult. I must stress the importance of bringing warm clothes and shoes to put on after training. Once you have been sweating and then stop exercising you cool down very quickly. It's important to rug up after training.

It was a basics and kumite night tonight with a bit of tournament kata practise thrown in for good measure. The circuit warmup seemed to work well with everyone puffing at the end of 8 one mintue exercises aimed to ge the blood flowing. James arrived a bit late so while everyone else did some basics he was doing solo laps of the hall :)










Remember next week we draw the State of Origin raffle. All raffle tickets, sold or unsold and any money must be handed in next Wednesday night. Its going to be an awesome prize...maybe even 2 awesome prizes. An extra prize will be drawn on the night as well so make sure you are there.

Our next grading date is the 9th of July so be at class every week and always put in 100%.

The GKR tournament is getting closer and closer. We have started practising in class and will be doing more over the next month. At the moment we have only had 2 entries received. All entries must be in by the 16th of July so get them filled in and returned to me ASAP. We have a long way to go if we are to beat our record of 20 entries.

Remember...there is a comment section at the end of each entry. Please add something if you feel like it. I look forward to hearing from you.

Have a great week
Sensei Rochelle
