Training You In The Art Of Karate And Street Self Defence Since 1983
Over the last couple of weeks we have been holding gradings for 4th kyu (purple with 1 white stripe) and 2nd kyu (Brown with 1 white stripe). These were for Libby, Finn and Steve. Libby was first up and she put in such a fantastic grading that she double graded to 3rd kyu, Brown belt. Libby was followed by Finn […]
Hi All. A big success story in the club on Thursday evening because Tara got her Black Belt. Tara has been with the Buntingford Karate Club for a few years and has been a pleasure to teach. She is one of those students who is always asking valid questions in her quest to fully understand her chosen martial art of […]
Hi All. Some more good news from the Buntingford Karate Club! Last night (5/9/24) Libby went for and passed her 5th Kyu grading and won her Purple belt. Libby, a little bit nervous (she had three of us on the judging panel and was grading on her own) performed an excellent set of quite complicated basics and then followed up […]
Hi All. A couple of months ago Finn took and gained his 4th Kyu grade (Purple with one white stripe) with the Buntingford Karate Club. I told him when he passed that he put in such an excellent performance and had applied himself so well to his karate that it would not be long before he took his brown belt […]
Hi All. We had another grading recently at the Buntingford Karate club. This one was for Finn. Finn has been very impressive with his ability to learn karate with particular regard to both Kata and Combat. He applies himself to remembering kata and has learned some of the more complicated black belt kata even before he graded for 4th kyu. […]
Beyond the disciplined dojo environment of our karate club, our members lead vibrant lives filled with diverse interests and pursuits.
Hi All. Last night (Thursday 18th Jan) Libby went for her Green Belt (6th Kyu) and Finn went for his Purple Belt (5th Kyu) at the Buntingford Karate Club. These two are probably the most laid-back members of our club. In a way this slightly held them back when they graded, because even though their demonstration of techniques were of […]
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. […]
