Calling all ‘Young At Heart’ in Wetherby
Starting Wednesday 2nd September, I am running a 3 week course of introductory Shotokan Karate for ladies and gents over 60.
All the sessions (up to 3 a week) will take place at 2-00 in the afternoon at the Town Hall.
The cost is £40 for 8 sessions – so £5 a lesson!
This is an opportunity to try something different, to improve your fitness/mobility and to increase your circle of friends.
You don’t have to have done any karate before and you don’t have to be fit. Just have an open mind.
I’m not particularly comfortable on social media – I would much rather have a chat on the phone or meet for a coffee – I’m a bit old fashioned like that!
For more information give me a call or drop me a text on 07753 244 638.
Here’s what 3 of our members in their 60s and 70s think about the karate I offer:
“My fitness has improved so much since joining, a great club with some great people, I am 76 and don’t feel out of place, come on you oldies!”
Ken
“I started karate with Martin 3 years ago at the age of 62. I’d never considered doing it before – and I’m loving it! It gives me an hour away from ‘real life’ – a chance to recharge and reset after a hectic day”
Alison
“We are going through some challenging health issues in the family at the moment and I have found it very hard to deal with. Wetherby Karate Club has been a lifeline for me personally. It’s a place for some “me time” a place where I can be myself and shut off from everything outside the dojo. Mentally I feel better equipped to keep going and as a bonus, I’m actually losing weight”
You’ve nothing to lose by giving it a go and plenty to gain. Get in touch with Martin, you won’t regret it’
