British Kyokushinkai Karate (BKK) Camp 2012

Thursday, August 30, 2012

Once again Senpai Jenny attended the annual BKK camp held in the United Kingdom. This year 3 students (Matthew Basile, Bianca Basile & Miko Mitchell pictured below) and 1 parent also made the trip with her. An experience of a lifetime training with 160 other karateka, mainly from UK but some from Holland, Belgium, Israel and to have the opportunity to train with Hanshi Steve Arneil and his top instructors. The trip wasn’t all hard work as there was some time for sightseeing in London prior to the camp and the city was abuzz due to the Olympics.

Some senior students have already expressed interest in travelling to the camp in 2013, if you want to go please let Senpai Jenny know. The camp is held every year in August and is open to students of all levels who are 8 years or older.

Be sure to check out the photo’s in the web gallery.

Drummoyne Public School Fete – Karate Demonstration

Thursday, August 30, 2012

We had a great day on Sunday 26th August with around 30 students from KKC Karate Five Dock attended to do the Karate demonstration, I think it was our best demonstration yet, the weather was really good not too hot and the audience seemed to appreciate the work all of the students put into the day.

Thank you so much to all who gave their time and attended it was great fun and good experience. Plus a big thank you to Sensei Shah who was our MC on the day. Be sure to check out the photos in the web gallery.

But I think some will agree that the snow cones after were also a real treat!!
