SHO GO RYU KARATE
is the club i started in June 2003
after studying Karate for over 20 years i decided that it was time to follow a different path and opened up the new club.
are classes are aimed at familys and cover a wide age group
our youngest students are 5 years old and our oldest...well im not they'd like thier age posted in the net. lets just say ive been called "sonny" as well as sensei.
Memebers of our club can train at any of our classes. i would recoment training twice a week that way you will progress at a steady rate and get the full benefits of practicing the Martial arts.
at the begining of the class we do a warm up and some stretching before practicing our basics then move onto partner training wereby we practice all our moves and combinations on alive partner.
classes run for an hour for the kids and an hour and half for the adults.
Special seminars vary from 2 hours to a whole weekend.
we bring in guest Instructors to help with our development and share Knowlage.
The training is similar to our JEET KUNE DO classes but actual techniques are more "japanese" in flavour.
the main focus of the lesson is Kata and Bunkai
learning how to unlock the secrets of the kata and apply the moves on the street as well as in the dojo
Gradings are held ever other month and a new student would expect to grade every 3 - 4 months. the first full grade is a yellow belt and certificate is awarded when you pass your grade
your BlackBelt will take about 4-5 years of hard training and dedication.
