Hello again, and I hope we have seen the last of all the bad weather we had last month.
Well gradings have started and are not going too badly at the moment; there have been a few disappointed students but overall it's been good.
Cobras would like to welcome its new students and wish them well in their time with us; some of the younger students have got to come to terms with the discipline of Martial arts, but that will come with time.
At the next grading the gi that is worn by black belts is changing, that does not mean that present black belts have to buy a new gi but when they grow out of their gi then they will change.
If any Parent or Student would like to drop me a line about why they bring their child to karate or why they like Karate please go to feedback and do so.
I know some Students struggle with the Kata so i am sorting out some DVDs that will be on sale shortly, see me or call to place an order. Cost £7.50ea. Each DVD will have 2 Katas on, the first Kata 3 and Pinnan Nidan.
Badge question: What was the name of the actor who played the Karate Kid in the films of the same name? Answers by email.
