23.01.2022 Hi Everyone, Only 3 more sleeps until Shihan Anthonys Seminar. Ive been fortunate enough to train with and under Shihan many times over the years and I always look forward to the karate session that he teaches at our Managers Conferences.... Over the years there have been Instructors who have left inside me a burning desire to learn and improve after training in their class. Shihan is one of those amazing people. He will motivate every muscle in your body and leave you wanting more and more and more. I know Sunday is Fathers Day but the seminar is on in the evening when dad is probably tuckered out after his big day & will be probably having a nap on the lounge So get excited and get registered for one of the most amazing Zoom sessions you will have ever had. See you Sunday Regards Sensei David https://www.gkrkarate.com//online-seminar-with-shihan-ant/
