23.01.2022 Ravenhall Prime Dojo is really taking shape...

21.01.2022 Hiya Cairnlea Karate-ka, Hope everyone’s doing well and staying safe. I see a few of you in the Zoom Online Dojo, but not all of you, so thought I’d check in to say hi for those I don’t see. Hopefully we will be in a position to resume dojo training soon, which brings me to my other reason for this post - the Region 6 Prime Dojo!... Yes, we are getting a full time training venue! The Region 6 Prime Dojo will be in Ravenhall, just 7 km from the Cairnlea Dojo, about a 10-12 minute drive. The training area is bigger than our current training area, and the floor will be decked out with mats! When I know more (and can say more), I’ll let you know. Otherwise, keep your training up, and for those who aren’t training on Zoom, keep your fitness levels up so when you do come back it’ll not too big of a shock to your body! Stay say, and see you all soon. - Dan Sensei ()

20.01.2022 One of my favourite to watch perform Kata and Kihon. Miki Rebecca Nakamachi also teaches correct posture and movement in karate. Amazing to watch.

19.01.2022 Good afternoon Cairnlea Karate-ka, A quick belated congratulations to a few Cairnlea students who achieved their 4th Kyu Red Belt yesterday - Frank, Klara, Daniel, Joe, & Jim, and also a congrats to Ethan on achieving his 6th Kyu Green Belt. The sun is out and about today and the weather improving, so let’s keep following the rules in the hope we can resume a new normal life soon including being back in the dojo.... Until then, we’re continuing to run Online Dojo classes every day, often two classes. Miss you all! Hang in there - Dan Sensei

19.01.2022 Exciting News!!! GKR Karate are excited to announce the opening of the new full time dojo at Ravenhall. The Cairnlea dojo will cease to exist and will be amalgamated into the new dojo: Although we let go of this dojo with a heavy heart and some very fond memories, we will be now offering our members a specialised facility for Karate, which will give our karatekas a much better experience.... The new dojo, Ravenhall Prime, located at 4/11, Rockfield way, Ravenhall will open on Monday 9/11/2 http://maps.google.com/maps?daddr=-37.779366,144.749552 Attached is the current timetable for the dojo. Also here below is the link to book your class. It is pertinent to book your selves in early as due to COVID safe regulations only 20 students per class will be allowed. https://www.signupgenius.com/go/GKRRavenhall Members also encouraged to join the Ravenhall Prime dojo page at: https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/ All other locations not mentioned above, we are in touch with the school administrations on our return dates, which are subject to the Education Department giving them the clearance to have 3rd parties on site. We should have news soon, watch this space. Any queries please contact our Regional Manager, Sensei Steve Shaw on 0433 314 799 Ryan de Sá GKR Karate, Region 6

16.01.2022 So close to dojo training again... Can’t wait for Monday!

15.01.2022 Good evening Cairnlea Karate-ka, As one door closes, another door opens. Now replace the word ‘door’ with the word ‘dojo’. This is my last post on the Cairnlea Page. Be sure to ‘Like’ our new Dojo page - https://www.facebook.com/GKRKarateRavenhallPrimeR6AUS... I can’t wait to be back in the dojo tomorrow night and I’m really excited about our future at Ravenhall! Booking in will be essential for the next two weeks to comply with the Governments Covid-safe directions, but after 22 November, we can open up to class sizes larger than 20! Anyway, signing off for the last time. See you all at Ravenhall soon! - Dan Sensei ()

14.01.2022 Good afternoon Cairnlea karate-ka, If you follow GKR’s Facebook page, you should have seen this already. For those that don’t, here it is. It should be noted that if you can’t partake in or watch the seminar on Sunday, if you purchase it, it is added to your GKR library in your subscription.

10.01.2022 If you’re wanting to know where the new Region 6 Prime Dojo is, it’s at 4/11 Rockfield Way, Ravenhall. As you can see, it’s not that far from Cairnlea Park Primary School. Floor mats are going in tomorrow! Can’t wait to show off some pics...

10.01.2022 Hiya Cairnlea Karate-ka, Looks like it’ll be a little longer until we’re all training together again in the Cairnlea Dojo, but we still have some awesome content on GKR’s Online Dojo, as well as Zoom Classes almost daily. Hang in there. We’ll get through this. And I hope to see you either in a Zoom class, and/or back in the Dojo before too long.... - Dan Sensei

09.01.2022 Good evening Cairnlea Karate-ka, The days of this Facebook page are numbered now. Be sure to like the new GKR Karate Ravenhall Prime Facebook Page. There are links to sign up for classes there, and classes are capped at 20 students until restrictions ease.... Can’t wait to see you all again! - Dan Sensei ()

09.01.2022 Hi to all Victorian Students. We hope you're all doing OK. Not long to go now! Classes will re-start very soon so watch this space for details. Stay Well GKR Karate

08.01.2022 Good afternoon Cairnlea Karate-ka, Well, it’ll be an end of an era soon. Cairnlea Dojo will be no more. But with one door closed, another huge door opens with our Region 6 Prime Dojo in Ravenhall. It’s situated about 7 km from Cairnlea, so really no issue with distance.... Stay tuned for class times, but all going to plan, the Dojo should be open next Monday! Can’t wait! Otherwise (and again all going to plan), this afternoon will be my last Online Dojo class for a Monday. If you’re doing nothing, join in. If you’re doing something else, skip that and join in! Hope to see a few Cairnlea faces this afternoon that I’ve missed. - Dan Sensei
