Due to the low number of registrations for the camp I have decided to postpone it until later in the year. The purpose of the camp is to get the bulk of students training together over an extended period of time however with many students unable to attend this would not be achieved. The black belts and I will generate a number of other opportunities for the club to train together over the next few months and look to run the camp in October - November.
I apologies to any students who canceled other plans to be available for the camp and will refund those that have already given me camp fees next week.
Kind regards

The 2012 training camp will be held at Woodman Point Recreation camp on 25, 26 and 27 May. Black belts will train from Friday night 25 and all other members from 1.30pm on Saturday through to 12 noon on Sunday 27 May. Please block out this weekend in your calendars and more information will be provided on Flyers in the next week. This is a great opportunity to get in some solid training and have great fun with the whole club.
For the camp's address and location, see here; Woodman Point Recreation Camp.
I look forward to seeing you all there.

The Thursday sparring technique class is open to all students and is especially beneficial for yellow belts and above. It does not involve full contact sparring but sparring gear should be worn so you get used to it.
Sparring gear includes: Mouth guard, groin guard (for males), head gear, shin pads and foot protectors. All of this is available at Giri Martial Arts on Albany highway Cannington except the foot protectors that are available through me.
See you there

My apologies. Many students have asked if we are training on Monday 5 March. The answer is no and generally we do not hold classes on public holidays so students can enjoy the break..See you all on Wednesday
