Posts Tagged ‘Friday Night’

We will not hold Class in our dojo Friday nights in January.  Instead we will visit the Family Karate Center each Friday to prepare for the Inviationtional tournament coming up on January 23rd.

You will be able to practice katas (empty hand and weapons) with judges scoring your kata.  Sparring will be available with referees call points and time keeps working the clocks.

Our referees will be practicing too so that they are sharp for the tournament.

Don’t miss out on this opportunity to be evaluated and receive advised from season judges adn referees that can help your performance.

Class will begin at 6:00 with judges working katas.  Sparring will begin at 7:00 with plenty of referees.

On Friday December 18th I will hold a special (after test) class at 6:30 PM at Ward’s Family Karate in Colorado Springs.  I have been learning Eagle Claw Kung Fu recently.  So I thought it would be fun to teach you some of what I have been learning.  I watched some videos on Eagle Claw Kung Fu and was plesently surprised to find out that many of the self-defenses and one steps that I teach you are from Kung Fu. Whether they are Eagle Claw specifically I do not know but beleive they are probably more general to Kung Fu.

We will work on part of an Eagle Claw Kata I am learning.  We will also discuss some of the techniques that you learn in our class and show you why they work so well if you let them flow.

This will be fun!  It’s always interesting to see Karate men try to do Kung Fu.  Kung Fu is soft and flowing.  Karate is hard and linear.  So lighten up and do some Kung Fu with us this Friday night.

Well as you probably heard I am down with a bad cold.  This post is to let you know that Ward’s Family Karate will be closed this Friday Nov. 20th.  This would be our normal night for all ranks class and sparring.  I did not want to push myself too hard and I just don’t know what shape I will being by Friday night.  If you would like to spar on Friday you may attend at the Family Karate Center, our Association head quarters.  Sparring drills are done at 6:00 and free sparring starts at 7:00.  Have a good time and be careful if you attend.  Remember control is the most important thing went you are sparring in karate.

I understand that you had a really great class last night a Ward’s Family Karate in Colorado Springs.  J.B. and Mrs. Ward did a great job covering for me and letting me stay home and rest.  It’s always fun to work with a different instructor on the same material.  Every instructor has a different view of how to do things.  In the end you end up learning more.  We will see how tonight goes, there is a good chance that J.B. will be teaching our all ranks class tonight.

thanks for understanding.
