NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS
Posted 1st Oct 2009
Contrary to various reports we have not reached our “sell by date” nor gone to the big dojo in the sky ! Other business priorities and a very full teaching schedule over the past 5 months has meant we neglected to update this site but we promise over the coming couple of weeks to once again get up to speed and bring you all the information we can.
From Walsall to Warsaw and Maidstone to Milan, over the past 5 months we have had courses in Poland, Hungary, Austria, Italy, Germany and new venues all over UK, so we have no complaints other than wishing we had more time in the day. More good news is that we have found Brian Hammond, Mike Manninng and Jimmy Neal all names from the ‘50’s, the first generation of karate in the UK and they are all very positive in helping in any way they can to pass on a true legacy of the beginning of karate in UK. . Both Brian & Mike have joined us on our trips to Europe and their input is greatly appreciated. We already have a very interesting project in the pipeline to publish new material we have found about the early years of UK karate. We are also very pleased that sensei Gavin Slater has agreed to teach on our courses.
Gavin spent 10 years in Japan studying Daito-ryu and his approach and philosophy is very much appreciated by the students. This weekend (4th Oct) there is a course in Hull organised by our friends Jack & Adam Hosie and taught by sensei Wingrove, Ruddock & Slater. We will update the courses calendar over the next 10 days to give you all a choice of courses and venues over the next 6 months. Once again THANK YOU for all your e-mails & calls of support and we promise to keep you informed in future.
