In case you missed the Webinar hosted by Russell Stutley kyoshi live, here's the Youtube playback: 

 

DVD footage is available: The Heian Bunkai Workshop ROUGHCUT   $5 to those who were there.  The seminar took place on 18th January 2014.

 Kururunfa Kata with Martyn Harris sensei.  Kururunfa is a Naha-te advanced kata.  It is not part of the syllabus for Keikokai, but will provide an interesting contrast to the Shuri-te Karate we are used to.  Free video available here 

Latest grading results here

You can see changes to the timetable here by Town or link from there back to the main timetable page for all our classes.

There is a new page added to the website: you will now have the option to download the Video of your grading syllabus at the reduced cost of $12.50.  That's instead of the £15 that the physical DVD costs.  They make excellent reminders and assistants for your home study of your art.

If you are aware of any changes please let us know so that we can incorporate them.  Check back here often.
