Training and BBQ 5th August 2007

Well we had a great time!
Students from three local martial arts clubs, adults and children alike attended the training session on Sunday morning.  Three professors gave us the benefit of their experience. First up was Sensei Dave Booth, 3rd Dan, with weapons training, showing us the vigorous moves possible with the Jo staff. Next, Sensei Mike Ashton, 3rd Dan, being unpleasant with his kubutan - a stick a tenth the size but with just as much pain! To round us off Sensei Keith, national level karate, doing what karate is all about - open hand, without weapons.
Then the BBQ. Once again Keith Turner over-catered and we all waddled out! I particularly liked the minted-lamb burgers. Must get the recipe for that one.....
