The Rise of MMA

by Stephen O'Brien | posted in: Fighting | 0

The Excellence Award 2020 goes to this young lady. The Excellence Award 2020 goes to this young lady. Eva has shown incredible dedication and determination to win this year's trophy. Considering her ability, it's hard to believe that she has been training with us for less than two years. Eva joins an elite club of previous winners; almost all are now black belts. Well done Eva!
“The heart of a man is like a piece of unworked “The heart of a man is like a piece of unworked iron. It must be hammered by adversity and forged by suffering and the challenges flung by the thoughtless gods, nigh unto the point of breaking. It must be purged and hardened in the fires of conflict. It must be purified and shaped on the anvil of despair and loss. Only when your heart has become as steel will you be worthy to wield a keen-edged sword in battle and win against your enemies, as did the gods when they conquered the giants. When you have mastered the mysteries of steel, my son, your sword will be your very soul.” - Conan’s Father in the book “Conan the Barbarian”
So the dreaded second lock down is here. I'm a fir So the dreaded second lock down is here. I'm a firm believer that the only way to survive and thrive in any circumstance is to adapt and build a bullet proof mindset. In these uncertain times, it's important to stay focused on what's important and have goals to aim for. I can help you set and achieve these goals. Let's turn a negative situation into a positive one. I'll be in touch.....

We've had two general enquiries so far this mornin We've had two general enquiries so far this morning. One asking about karate suits and the other about the minimum age for starting karate. I thought it would be a good idea to compile a FAQ's page on our website blog so here it is: https://loughtonkarateclub.co.uk/uncategorised/faqs/ If you can think of any Q & A's to add (sensible ones please), just let me know.

How will the introduction of the government's new How will the introduction of the government's new 3 tier lock down levels affect our karate classes? Well, you'll see from the first image how each tier of lock down will affect our lives. The second image shows in the bottom left hand corner that even if we go into the 'very high' level of lock down, karate classes will still be able to go ahead. The biggest concern the club has had so far this year is the availability of venues. During the summer lock down, all of our venues were closed, so we trained outdoors. These new restrictions will thankfully allow most of our venues to stay open even if we enter the 'very high' tier.
Bad news for many but we’re still open. Bad news for many but we’re still open.
