This week it's all been about combinations, with power, which flow from one move to the next, without 'gaps'. Combinations were drilled, then tested - for power, for accuracy, and for speed. Footwork is vital, so drills were built, modified, and adapted to suit individual needs and to adapt to their partners and environments. I'm really pleased with how well everyone did. Great work! 👏🥊 #Keiryu #keiryukarate #keiryupracticalkarate #Karate #martialarts #power #impact #BCKA #LeeMullan
It was one of 'those' sessions last night. Fortunately the only blood spilled was my own. 😐 #Keiryu #keiryukarate #keiryupracticalkarate #Karate #martialarts #katabasedsparring #kbs #sparring #roughplay #broken #closerange #LeeMullan #bcka @blitzsport

Congratulations George on passing an extremely tough and comprehensive Shodan grading today. Kihon, combinations, drills, bunkai, sparring, throws, chokes, strangles... I'm very proud to grade George to Dan grade. Congratulations to Orie, Kallum and Steve too.

We did some sparring last night, which was so much fun. The movement and resistance took its toll on soft skin, but on another positive, look at those battle-scars! #Keiryu #keiryukarate #keiryupracticalkarate #martialarts #Maldon #SilverEnd #sparring #kumite #mykarateisugly #realkarateisdirty #fleshwound #LeeMullan
It's extremely hot this week, so please ensure you bring a drink (or two) to classes. #selfprotection #hydrate #Keiryu #keiryukarate #keiryupracticalkarate

Last night we had the 3rd session from Jamie Clubb ( @clubbchimeramartialarts ). Jamie continued with his 'Rhythm and Flow' combinations from Dutch Kickboxing to add some variety and skill for stand-up fighting. Great work from everyone - Thanks for joining us. Thanks to Jamie too! #crosstraining #martialarts #JamieClubb #CCMA #LeeMullan #karate #keiryu #keiryukarate #keiryupracticalkarate
Keep going! Zoom lessons and confined spaces make for useful learning opportunities.
Online schedule for the week. As we're still on Zoom the sessions are 40 minutes. See you soon.
