Harry’s Lesson

Hi there. The Buntingford Karate Club trains (as you know if you have read our tags) every Tuesday and Thursday evening at the Gym in Edwinstree School, Bowling Green Lane, Buntingford, Herts. On a Wednesday a Tae Kwon Do club uses it and we have a studentwho attends this club as well as ours, and that’s Harry.

Harry trains hard and diligently and mindful of the fact that my Brown Belts at some time have to take a lesson or two as they run up to Black Belt he asked me when he could take a lesson. So we arranged for 3rd September just gone.

Harry put together a really good lesson of basics, kata, and sparring. He also introduced an element that we use from time to time where one member has to get from one end of the Dojo to the other whilst avoiding being attacked by the other students – some of whom will attack and some of whom will not. All of this is done in the dark.

As this lesson gave me the chance to train in with the students instead of having to keep an eye on them I enjoyed this lesson, as I have when other students have done the same thing.

Harry’s only stumbling block was his quiet voice – MORE PROJECTION HARRY!!
