Tuam Karate is Busy

Faolchu Karate in Tuam is really buzzing this week. I'm running to & fro but loving it. Today was Faolchu squad training, where most of our squad students got fitted for their new style hoodies and Tuam Faolchu backpack . If you would like to buy one make sure you have ordered & paid by 30th November.
Also Wednesday will be the 1 st of our 5 Christmas Hamper draws, good luck to everyone :-)
Last but not least Saturday will be our largest ever grading!!

Hoodies Time

At last the time is here, we have made the commitment put in the early Sundays squad training and now the hoodies and backpacks are ready to order.

The template for the back patch is done and all will be embroidered, collected this week and ready to be ordered on Sunday.
If you have not qualified to receive the free hoodie and back pack, they are available to purchase for a once off run.
If you are unsure of your attendance just text Marie to check.

THE HAMPERS

Dermot Sensei visits Tuam

Tuam Karate where visited by Dermot O Keeffe Sensei on Sunday where he instructed 3 classes.
Our Little Wolves where in first where they brought their usually high spiritedness and eagerness on Sunday morning for Sensei to direct.
Followed by our 2nd session of kumite drills and exercises ( the legs know all about it ). Great drills and hard training.
Finally we worked on Gojoshiho dai and Sochin, as with all kata, nice to watch, very difficult in practice.
No doubt, I've got a long way to go yet and that can be a good thing too.
A goal isn't necessarily something to be achieved, it simply serves as something to aim at and we can only improve in it's pursuit.
