Summer Camp

Oss!
 
We hope you are having a great summer.




 The next Saturday (August 03,2013) the dojo will be closed
for the Mountain States Greely Camp.
( Aug 01 Thursday - Aug 04 Sunday at The University of Northern Colorado, Greely )
 
There will be a tournament on Saturday starting around 12pm and
 the grading test on Sunday early in the morning, around 9am.
It is a long drive but if you wish to come and watch, we will be there!
 
 
When you test for your SHODAN (First Degree Black Belt),
your choice will be either Greely Summer Camp or Lone Tree March tournament.
Joining the camp from the day one will be a great way to sharpen
your techniques before the testing. 
There will be 3-4 classes a day and the teacher changes at each class. 
Karate has no border.  It is good to be exposed to different styles.   




Last week we practiced ENPI-UCHI technique. 
This is called Mae-Enpi, (front elbow strike).
There is one simple rule on this technique,
 keep your fist flat against your ear.  
( Do not bend your wrist)


Thank you Senpai Purple belt for being such a great example!
Keep up good work!
 
 
We humbly ask the parents to stay silent during the class and during Dojo-Kun time. 
 It is a transition moment for all of us-----
your children are converting from kids to martial artists as they meditate.  
As we cool off, we gradually come back to our normal life through meditation.
Please remain silent during the class and during the meditation time.
 
Thank you for all you do!
