This morning the focus in class was on preparation for the tournament which is going to happen next Saturday on September 20th. The three hours we trained today was extremely well spent. We worked on self defense, kata, sparring and the etiquette involved in all of it. We worked on what to do if you win and more importantly, what to do if you lose.
The kids were all amazing. They developed incredible self defense sets and they worked on them continually, without fooling around, for hours. They practiced their kata with great focus(they can almost get up in front of everyone without hardly a giggle now). We even have a new student (who has only been taking classes for one week) signed up for both kata and self defense. Very impressive!
When we returned home, Niki and Michelle from the Sharbot Lake Karate Club stopped by with more registrants for the tournament. They will have a lot of kids there. We are filling up the divisions nicely. So far the biggest division is the white/yellow belt division for kids under 9. So anyone in that one had better practice, practice, practice!!!
