Last week five of us went to Leysin in Switzerland for a Special Training. We thoroughly enjoyed the Swiss spirit, great company and beautiful surroundings. To top it off, we didn't leave empty handed: Tiemen got his Shodan and Edward left as a Nidan! Congratulations to both. Many thanks to SSK - Suisse Shotokan Karaté for organizing the special Training, and to Donato LaRocca and Carmen Sutter for leading the practices!

Existentiële moed is de moed om volledig te zijn wie je bent. Zichtbaar zonder garanties of bescherming, terwijl de wereld kijkt en oordeelt. In volle glorie...

This weekend, three of us joined the kumite seminar in Basel, led by Donato La Rocca of SSK - Suisse Shotokan Karaté . The program was very interesting, and we gained a ton of experience in sparring with different opponents, trying out things we had just learned. Both during and between practices, we enjoyed spending time with our friends, both from Switzerland and from Shotokan Karate Haan e.V. and Karate-Dô Dôjo Berlin e.V. . Many thanks to Donato for leading the practices and to everyone from SSK for your hospitality!
