Karate 58

The last class of the summer season in Devon consisted of 100% black belts and…us. New belts and certificates were given out to the black belts who ranked higher in Toronto in both karate and kobudo.
We went through an extensive warm-up then practiced the x pattern using various blocks and punches, followed by a break, then the awards were given out and we continued on with kata and sparring.
Now we have only Elmwood on Thursdays plus of course, whatever we do on our own at home. Classes will begin for the winter season towards the end of September back at the school gym in Devon.
We will miss the beginning as we might be in the USA for a few weeks.
Oh yah, there is one other thing I have to add. I really suck at sparring. I lean way over and expose myself to attack and I make huge googly eyes and telegraph my every move. I know I suck, but I think if I fix just a couple things I can make a huge improvement.
