What’s everyone’s thoughts?! 😂

And you think it’s bad when you have to run the pad gauntlet! 🥋 🇯🇵 👊

Exactly.

If you don’t practice you won’t improve

As we said 5 mins a day. That is at least 1 kata (maybe 2 )

When you are laying in bed before you sleep or stood waiting in a queue or sat in a car being driven somewhere go through a kata in your head.

If you want extra bonus points ask your parents or guardians if they want a cup of tea and while the kettle boils do some karate.

Stances, punches, kicks (be careful) or kata anything karate related.

These little minutes will add up over the week and your brain will remember more.

Ours!!

No other words needed! 🥋 🇯🇵 👊

As a kid, I did NOT enjoy Karate. It was suuuuper boring. 😅 Pokemon and skateboarding were MUCH more fun! 🛹

But I didn’t quit... Year after year, I kept practicing (because my parents encouraged me).

Today I’m SO THANKFUL for this! 🙏

Because Karate taught me self-discipline, grit and patience. 💪 These lessons are INVALUABLE

- Life isn’t always FUN.
- Sometimes it SUCKS.
- But that’s NOT a reason to QUIT.

This is what Karate taught me... And it made me who I am today 🥋

A few photos from one of our recent gradings.

Our students undertake a traditional Shukokai grading syllabus which includes the following items (grade level dependant). Each section is observed and marked by the Sensei (teacher).

Line work techniques - (demonstration of combinations of kicks and punches from both static and moving stances)).

Pad work techniques - (demonstration of full power contact combinations of kicks and punches on pads).

Kata - (demonstration of the specific grade level kata).

Self defence - (demonstration of self defence against a variety of attacks- grade level dependant).

Hokei kumite - (demonstration of specific sparring combinations).

Kumite - (2 rounds of full contact sparring)

In order to go forward for grading the student must have attended a specific amount of training sessions and consistently achieve the required standards during pre assessments.

Grading is not an exam as such it is the traditional way of assessment to ensure that a student fully understands and can apply the knowledge learned to allow them to move on to the next level of their journey.

Gradings our tough both physically and mentally and each student who takes part is put through a rigorous process.

As you can see from our recent passes it is all worth it.

Well done.
