This weekend was an active one with on Saturday the JKS course in Dublin, with the usual wealth of experienced karateka all teaching throughout the day. Steve Carless was the visiting sensei from the UK, who for much of the first hour explored the 6 levels of Oi suki. I think we were all challenged by how our basic punch can still be such a difficult concept. Sunday was the monthly JKS squad training session, held for the first time in Moate. This was a difficult and rewarding day. Where we got to explore kata and kumite in detail.
