25.01.2022 Christmas Training and Jan timetable !

23.01.2022 In case you missed it - Yes we are Open!

23.01.2022 Reopening details have been sent to everyone on the subscription list. If you aren't on this list , and would like to receive all updates that we send out via email......please send me a message here on facebook, i'll send you the link to the mailout, and please select to subscribe. Osu.

21.01.2022 Merry Christmas All. Hope to see as many of you as possible for last classes tonight...or perhaps after for a casual get together at 8.30pm. Here are your Jan dates and times etc. Osu. Ho Ho HO..........

20.01.2022 Coming Soon. Bear Cubs T.Shirts. It will be first in best dressed for colours and sizes. We have limited stock coming in. If they are a hit (which we already think they will) we will do another run. Giving kids the gift of movement @bear_training

19.01.2022 As this year has been well...let's just say 2020.....and the end has been chaotic return to semi normal.....I think everyone is a bit overwhelmed with just - life. So....we don't want to add to list of things to do for everyone which is why we aren't having an official xmas party this year. I think - Wednesday Evening on 23rd....classes finish at 8.30pm. If you would like to bring along your own drinks, and some snacks to share....we can kick back after class (pun intended) and just chat and wish each other a good break before returning Jan 4th. We will organise something special in terms of a party to celebrate 2021 early in the NY. So....I repeat..........Wed 23rd, 8.30 pm. Come for casual get together after classes.

18.01.2022 We have talked before about knowing your why. Each time you turn up to class - or pick up a weight in the gym - you should remind yourself why you do it. This way - it becomes easier to push through the hard stuff. I think this video explains it perfectly !

15.01.2022 Quick update on some new practices we’ve been adding to our classes; Breathing (the conscious kind)

14.01.2022 If you’ve heard of WIM Hof then you already know about the benefits of ice bathing. Tomorrow night Friday 20th November you have the chance to try it for yourself. One of our members Rick has studied under WIM Hof and has offered to guide willing participants through a session. Admission price is two bags of ice ! 7pm - bring your bathers and a towel and a heap of courage !!!! Pls message to let us know if you are coming.

14.01.2022 I call this workout ‘pushing shit uphill’. And literally that’s it. Grab a sandbag and push it up a hill. It’s simple , but not easy. It’s a challenge but not impossible. Physically strong helps you be mentally strong. Our bodies and minds are interconnected and what happens to one directly impacts the other. Therefore fitness and health should not just be considered in terms of something your body develops - but a combination of your state of mind and how you and your body cope and adapt to stressors and change and the demands of life. #bodyandmind #physicsltraining #sandbagworkout

13.01.2022 Saw this ...... it bought up so many emotions and feelings within me ! too good not to share

12.01.2022 It’s that time of year ..... when we should be getting ready to celebrate a hard year of training with our awards night. My house should be covered with awards in the making ....... and the excitement for the end of year gradings and comps should be building. That’s not this year however. We do have some light at the end of a long tunnel ..... with talk of gyms opening on Nov 9th with strict restrictions. I’m still waiting for them to be finalised - will advise our plan ASAP ! Osu

12.01.2022 In case you missed it - Yes we are Open! All classes are indoors and therefore non-contact for 2 weeks (until November 23rd) when COVID rules lift further. Use this opportunity to ease back into your Martial Arts fitness so you are ready when Striking and Grappling classes go full contact!

12.01.2022 Adults - limit of x10. Pls book to secure your spot. Message or text Kiley on 0410 603 464 ! Bring a drink bottle - and an open mind

10.01.2022 So we got the news we were hoping for. We can go back to almost normal numbers. We will be sticking with the new timetable for now whilst we are still capped in class size. I know it doesn't affect all sessions, but it does sometimes affect the junior Karate. It's also running quite well so let's see the year out without any more confusing timetable changes. TOP POINTS : * No need to book for sessions. Limits for groups are x20 per space. * We can go back to contact wor...k. WOO HOO - Yes. Real Martial Arts is back. * Masks still need to be worn by adults inside the dojo until you enter the mat for class. You don't have to wear one in the carpark however, and no longer required to wear one on the mats. If you prefer to wear one during partner work - that is your personal choice that we will respect. * Parents can now stay and watch, but will need to wear a mask inside and keep to group sizes numbers. It's been really quiet in the dojo with no spectators during sessions, and to be honest, I've noticed a distinct difference in the kids concentration. It would be great if we could keep this up by any spectators keeping the chatting to a minimum during sessions. It's great to have the community back together, but the main thing is that students get the best opportunity to learn. If you want to watch- watch. If you really wanna catch up with everyone (who doesn't right) then please stay outside to chat. Love from us all xx *All our hygiene procedures etc stay in place. * Do I really need to remind anyone to stay at home if unwell ? That's a big culture shift that I think was overdue. It's not cool to "soldier on with Codral" okay. It's way cooler to rest and recover and heal through nutrition and a healthy respectful mindset towards yourself and others. Fist bump. Osu. See more
