NEW SUNDAYS AT TENSHIN-KAI

 

Farmer's Market booth

Farmer's Market Booth

This past Sunday was the first Sunday of August, which means there were several new things going on at the dojo.  This was the first week of the Tenshin-kai booth at the Westchester Farmer’s Market. We had flyers, posters and hand-outs for the kids, and showed videos of karate and tai chi training.  Special thanks to Shihandai, Saidoin, Shidoin, Manager Joe, Yuuki and everyone who helped out.  Look for us at 87th Street every Sunday.

This week was also the first week of the Sunday adult karate class starting at 11:10am, and the adults being joined by Take and Ume students at 11:50am for special training with Kancho.  This was a unique opportunity for the younger students to see how the adults train, and learn some new techniques not covered in kids’ karate.  These sessions will be on-going, so please consider coming to the dojo for this special training.

Osu!

 

SPECIAL SUNDAY TRAINING FOR KIDS – Starts Aug. 2016

Starting in August, Sundays at 11:50a there will be a special 20 minute time frame where Take and Ume students can work with the Tenshin-kai instructors at the end of the Adult karate class.  This will not be a “class,” per se, but a treat from Kancho to his younger students.  Please see Kancho or Top Members for details.  See you there!  OSU!

Special Sunday Training – Sundays 11:50a – 12:10p

SCHEDULE CHANGE FOR JUNIOR/ADULT KARATE – Aug. 1st

Osu!  As of August 1st, there will be slight changes in the Junior/Adult karate schedule:

On most Sundays, Juniors/Adults Karate will be followed by a special 20 minute time frame where Take and Ume students can work with the Tenshin-kai instructors in small groups.  This will not be a “class,” per se, but a treat from Kancho to his younger students.  Please see Kancho or Top Members for details.  OSU!
