Training You In The Art Of Karate And Street Self Defence Since 1983
A Merry Christmas to you all. So, the last training dates this year at the Buntingford Karate Club were Tuesday 19th and Thursday 21st and, as you can see from the photos below of both the Tuesday and Thursday classes, we were in high spirits! Our training starts back after New Year’s Day on Thursday 4th January. Sue and I […]
Hi All. Last week Faye took her grading at the Buntingford Karate Club for her 3rd Kyu (Brown) belt. Faye came to us from a club over at Stevenage and has really fitted in well with our club here in Buntingford. In particular, she has amazed us all with her kicking ability – we have a number of members over […]
Hi All. Sorry I have not blogged for a while but I’ve had some problem logging on (techy stuff). Anyway, at a recent grading Harry took a grading all on his own and turned in a very good performance of his chosen martial art. Harry is only a young lad but he tries with an effort beyond his young age. […]
Hi All. Dave has been with the Buntingford Karate Club for many years and, unfortunately, he has recently had to have a triple hernia operation (not nice!). However, although he cannot train at the present time he did express a wish to take the club for a lesson. Knowing of his long experience at karate I was happy to allow […]
Hi All. The Buntingford Karate Club held another grading on Tuesday night, this time for Alastair. Alastair came to us as a 2nd kyu brown belt from another club. He left his old club because the instructor told him not to ask questions “just do what I tell you”. Alastair’s father, quite rightly, was appalled by this (as was I […]
Hi All. Last night at the Buntingford Karate Club Libby took a grading to confirm her belt colour and Finn went for his next belt, 6th kyu (green). Libby came to us from another club where she had already just graded to red belt. However, their red belt was the equivalent of our orange. So, if Libby passed her belt […]
Hi All Over the last few days three of the ladies in the Buntingford Karate Club have taken and passed their various gradings for higher belt colours. Dae-Zee Mae went for 4th kyu (purple + 1 white stripe) and double graded to 3rd kyu brown belt. Faye graded to 4th kyu, and Tara graded to 1st kyu (brown + 2 […]
Hi All, At a recent grading at the Buntingford Karate Club brothers Ronnie and Harry achieved their first colour belt. Both brothers joined the club at the same time and have been putting in a lot of effort. This has paid off by them getting their first grading success. The grading went very well with both boys showing a lot […]
Tara has improved considerably in both her power and technical ability since her last grading. The grading panel could find little to fault in her performance and she is turning into quite the technician. Well done Tara.
