12.01.2022 Hi everybody, here is an interesting video on stretching. Very good given that we have not been able to train as a club. The club is working on guidelines relating to COVID-19. We are currently working out training structures etc to ensure the health and well being of our students and parents. We hope to open soon, this is however dependent on government guidelines. We will keep you all informed.... In the meantime, stay safe and keep training. Scott

07.01.2022 Hello everyone, As you are all aware, there is now a closing of the NSW / VIC borders. The club again has had to take some drastic changes which will dramatically affect our recommencement of training.... EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY: No training on Mondays at Wahgunyah at all as all students are from NSW & are not allowed to cross the border for training. Children who would normally train on Wednesday at Chiltern Valley & who reside in Vic will train Wednesdays from 500-530pm at the Wahgunyah Dojo. Adults who train on Wednesday & who reside in Vic ONLY will train at the Wahgunyah Dojo from 530-630pm. Weapons training will occur at the Chiltern Valley Dojo as organised by Sensei Dave - Again ONLY for VICTORIAN residents. Sadly again training will only commence again at this stage for VIC residents as it is beyond the club’s control. It does not stop students from training at home.

07.01.2022 To keep in mind whilst practising all the Kata’s that you have learnt.

07.01.2022 Hello everyone! We hope your holidays are going well. Just a reminder that due to the Australia Day holiday on the 28th January, training will resume at Wahgunyah dojo on the 4th February and at Chiltern Valley dojo on the 6th February. We look forward to seeing you all then.
