May 12th saw us have our Spring seminar and grading under JKS Ireland technical director Dermot Sensei 6th Dan. Our biggest & busiest grading to date and a huge well done to all who trained and graded on the day.
We wont always be successful in karate as is the same with life. If we don’t pass on the day we must take the lessons learned and ask ourselves why not & be better prepared to come again the next time.
We are not beaten until we quit and the day we quit is the day we cant fix it anymore. The choice is our own. It takes a lot of bravery to train in karate this way, the correct way & take the lows with the highs; so you can all take great confidence in knowing you’re doing things a harder way than a lot of other areas of society these days would encourage.
I’m very proud of all the students who give everything they have in their training. You’ll start to reap the benefits of your hard work in no time at all.
Keep up the great work.
Next for us is the Shannon Shojinkai grading on June 9th.
Work work work!
Osu!
