We've had a quiet few weeks owing to School Holidays etc but the students are drifting back in now as they prepare to go back to school. For those of you that remain in the area during School Holidays, please remember that we don't close - we carry on training.
We have limited places available for each class - 15 students. Once we've filled those places, the club will hold a waiting list system. We currently have 4 Tigers (5-7 year olds), 6 Youngsters (8-16) and 4 Adults.
If you'd like to try our style of Karate just pop in to the dojo and you can have a week's free lessons. Please ensure that you turn up 10 minutes before a lesson begins. Full training times and other information can be found on our website: http://meiyo.org.uk.
Adult beginners are encouraged to start with the Youngsters until they learn their basic stances and techniques and then progress to the adult classes.
Meiyo Karate Club dontated £300 to the Disabled Artist Network (DAN) this month, to help the group get off the ground. The groups exhibitions take place in the same store, outside the Community Room. The last pieces of art go up tonight and the exhibition will be opened officially by the Lord Mayor of Nottingham on Wednesday 13th September 2017 at 10am. DAN is a Not-for-Profit group that promotes Creativity as a coping mechanism for Disability. It also works to help destigmatise mental health issues.
Sensei Yamazaki will be gracing us with his presence on Sunday 1st October 2017. Please be aware that all members of the dojo are expected to attend as this is one of our 4 compulsory training events a year at the Zanshin Dojo in Sneinton. Full details are on the club's Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/pg/meiyokc so please click on the 'Event' and confirm your attendance. Please make sure that you bring your licenses on the day as Sensei Yamazaki will sign them for you.
I hope to see you at the dojo soon.
Regards,
Villayat 'Wolf' Sunkmanitu
Club Instructor
