Summer Time Class Change

Karate in Tuam classes are changed during the summer months, to help suit students better during the holidays from school. All Little Wolves training is on Tuesday from 6 to 7 in the Indigo Holistic Healing Center. Fridays 8+ children's karate class is now on from 6 to 7:15 in the Indigo Holistic Healing Center. Wednesdays children's karate classes is now in Tuam's Total Fitness Solutions which will be it's new home.
Like last year we will not be running regular classes during August but there is still plenty going on with Nunchaku training and Saturday squad training sessions.

Faolchú Competition

Our annual Faolchú inhouse competition is planned for the 30th of July. This is an event suitable for every one of our students. Details of catagories will be sent out closer to the time.

The purpose of our inhouse competition is to positively encourage all students and give them an opportunity to demonstate their skills and knowledge for family and friends in a safe environment. It also gives the additional advantage to club members that they can learn the rules of competition and get the experiance without having to travel. There will be trophies for 1st, 2nd and joint 3rd with a competitors medal for all.

As a bonus this year the JKS our governing organisation have asked to to select our champions in various events to go forward to compete at the Irish club championships (at no cost to selected members).

Further details will be posted on the notice board as they are finalised.

JKS Club Championships

The JKS Ireland have confirmed their first Club Championships. Each JKS Ireland Club will hold their own in house competition to select their Club Champions in various catagories.
These Champions will then go forward to represent their club at the JKS National Club Championship on the 11th of September 2011, which will be held in Moate, Co. Meath.
Our own Faolchú Championships in Tuam will as usual be held in July. Last year proved to be a great experiance for all and wonderful day out. This year will see even greater challenges and rewards as students have gained new skills and experiance throughout the year and will be keen to show their fighting spirit.
