22.01.2022 Hi everyone (long post). Hope you are all safe and well. Its great that we finally have some news on when we may be back training at the dojo. MONDAY 22nd JUNE is the day that we can (hopefully) return. As we are an indoor sport, we dont come under the recent restriction lift. So, unfortunately, we are not coming back after this weekend. We will keep everyone posted as the day gets closer with the procedures we will need to follow for ours and your safe return. We will... be following strict hygiene rules (like we normally do anyway) but there may be a few new things we need to put in place. As we will be returning only a week before school holidays, no term classes (kinda kids and special needs) will start until the start of term 3, only those kinda kids currently training will attend their final session for Term 2 at the dojo. Also, to avoid confusion, we will be staying on our COVID-19 timetable for that week, then go into our usual school holiday timetable. I will attach the covid timetable again. School holiday timetable will be available soon. We will continue to operate online until the 22nd, then online training will cease and all classes should hopefully be back at the dojo. I will also post this information on the online groups. Looking forward to actually seeing your smiling faces soon. The countdown is on! Stay safe. See more

21.01.2022 HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE. Hope you are all happy, safe and well. Easter Monday marks the last day of school holidays. We will be moving to a new online timetable as of Tuesday 14th April. We have added some extra classes to the timetable to make online learning a little easier. Kinda kids are back on for this term with just the Saturday class on offer. Please let us know if you are joining our Kinda kids class this term. Special Needs students dont have a separate clas...s but are welcome to join in on our general classes. Have a try and see which class suits you best. Our fitness classes have changed days. These classes are open to anyone, both members and non members. Have a try and see if you like them. If you are stuck at home, these classes will be a fun break for you. They are suited to all fitness levels. I will repost this timetable in each of our online groups. If you are yet to join one of our online groups. Here are the links again: KIDS GROUP - 5-12yrs, Kinda kids, special needs https://www.facebook.com/groups/507162299977282/ ADULTS GROUP - 13+, fitness classes, special needs https://www.facebook.com/groups/510851019860265/ See more

17.01.2022 Who is excited to be back inside the dojo tomorrow?!! We certainly are. I have attached some information regarding our return to indoor training. Our current class sizes are fine with the recent announcements so we are set to go ahead. We will be running off the same timetable that we were using for outdoor training (see attached information). If you have any trouble reading the information, please let us know so that we can forward it to you. We are looking forward to se...eing you all back inside where you belong. I will re-post this to both of our online groups. See more

17.01.2022 IMPORTANT INFORMATION: We will not be running online classes on Monday 8th June due to it being a public holiday. Classes will still run as normal on Saturday. Also very soon we will be posting some important information regarding our return to classes inside the dojo. Things are actually going to be a bit different to how we previously stated. We should have all the information ready for you next week.

16.01.2022 Kids class on tonight at 5pm. This will be your last chance to train in the dojo before we go back online. Sensei Dave and Leanne will be there. Looking forward to seeing your faces once more.

16.01.2022 Here is the link for the online group for those that currently have children that train in our kids classes. https://www.facebook.com//50716/permalink/507162309977281/ The first online class will be Wednesday at 5pm. The link to the class will be posted in the group 15mins before class time so that we can have everyone ready to go.

15.01.2022 Can you believe its school holidays again at the end of the week?! Here is the school holiday timetable for everyone. I have also posted it in both online groups. Please read through it carefully. You will notice the main difference this time is that we will be shutting down for the second week of the holidays. The sempais cant run the classes for us this time around and I think we all deserve a break from our screens. Try to get out and about during that second week, its not just an excuse to be lazy. Hopefully after the holidays we will know a bit more about how we will be returning to onsite training. We may need to do some training outside to start with, so stay tuned for information about when and where classes will be run. Hope you are all well. Stay strong. OSU!

15.01.2022 Kiosk is ready. Come and get your lollies and glow products.

14.01.2022 Dont forget we are back training at the dojo tonight Remember we are on our Covid timetable for this week - 5pm for students up to orange/white and 6pm for advanced students. The only change to the timetable is the teens and adults classes - Teens at 6pm and Adults (18+) at 7.15pm (Tuesdays and Thursdays). Fridays are the same. There are no more online classes. Cant wait to see everyone.

14.01.2022 ATTENTION KINDA KIDS As most of you are aware, we are operating our karate classes online now due to our current situation. This is just a message to let you know that we will be running a Kinda Kids class for Term 2. ... We will be operating one session per week on Saturday mornings at 9:30-10:00am. If you are keen to enrol for term 2, please let us know. We will then send through the invoice for term fees and let you know what to do if you are not already part of our online group. If your child is old enough to join in with our general karate (5+) and you would rather do those classes, that is totally fine. Let us know if this is the case so that we can inform you of the timetable for Term 2. We really hope that everyone is coping with the way things are. Stay safe everyone.

13.01.2022 Here is the link to adults classes online group. We post all zoom links to this group. Make sure you are part of this group to train online. https://www.facebook.com/groups/510851019860265/

It all helps in keeping us moving forward. 2. Remember there are no more online classes. If you are unsure of class times, please let us know. 3. HOODIES/TSHIRTS etc - we are putting in an order at the end of next week. Let us know if you would like to order anything.

We hope that everyone is coping during this time. We are all here to support each other, so dont be afraid to shout out for any help, even if its just for a chat. Take care.

11.01.2022 Can you believe this is the last week of training for 2020! Feels like we only just got started. It's also time to focus our attention on our upcoming presentation day/evening. Please read the attached notices regarding what times to come along. If you have any questions regarding this day or are unsure as to which time slot is the right one, please let us know. I will re-post these notices in PDF form in the online groups for those that are still on there plus there are hard copies available at reception.

11.01.2022 WE ARE BACK TO ONLINE KARATE - HERE ARE A FEW REMINDERS 1. For those that are new to the online learning make sure you have asked to join our online groups and have created an account on Zoom. If you need the ID and Password text messaged to you, please let me know. 2. We usually go live 10 mins before class starts. When you join the zoom meeting you will automatically be on mute, this is to minimise all of the noise, please only unmute yourself if you have a question. 3. Y...ou will need to pin the image of the dojo as your main screen so that you can always see us as the main focus. If on a device (ipad/phone) just double tap the image. If on a laptop/pc you will need to scroll over the image and go to the three dots in the corner and select "pin image". 4. Have fun. We need to make the most out of our situation. Stay strong and focused on your training. We got this. I have attached another copy of the COVID timetable. Please note that the adults classes have been reduced to 1 hour classes. I will also be posting this message in both online groups. See more

09.01.2022 We are running both classes (kinda kids and general) today as a tribute to our ANZACs. Remember to work hard to show your respect.

09.01.2022 Presentation Day is today. Looking forward to seeing you all and finishing off our amazing and challenging year.

08.01.2022 We are now on our school holiday timetable. There are no Saturday classes until we start back for term 3. If things are going well, we will return to our normal timetable for term 3 .

08.01.2022 As much as Dan Andrews announcements are another slap in the face to us, the only way out of this is to keep moving forwards. We have already come so far. Stay strong. Dont let those negative thoughts inside your head, they will do you harm. You cant let it win. Adapt, overcome, survive; you can do it. This will all be a distant memory one day, one that made us stronger. Together we can keep each other going. If anyone is struggling for motivation and needs to reach out for a chat, we are here for you. Hold you heads high and plough on through, you owe it to yourself. Online training is still going ahead as normal. As soon as we can change things up, we will certainly let you know. Osu!

03.01.2022 2020, the year of trying new things and learning. Presentation Day, although very different, was still a huge success. All three sessions were fun and relaxed. Thank you once again to everyone that came along to enjoy the day. It is always great to see our karate family happy and having a great time.

I mean tough ) Congratulations to those kinda kids who earnt their new belts today. One whole year of kinda kids! Top effort. Well done to all the other kinda kids who earnt their end of term stripes, we will put those on your belts next time we see you.

We hope you all enjoyed your morning workout. We will post the timetable for next weeks classes soon. Stay strong, Stay Safe. Osu.

03.01.2022 How could you call 2020 a bad year with an ending like that!! Grading weekend was amazing as always; blood, plenty of sweat and many tears. We would not have it any other way. Top effort to all of the teens and adults who graded yesterday. It has been such a tough year but watching you all slog it out, you would not have known it; you were pushed to your limits and the grading was a strong as it always is. We are so proud of each and every one of you and you should be p...roud too. Congratulations to our two newest Sempai’s who graded to their brown belts - Sempai Dylan and Sempai Jasmin (Jazzi). Both of you stayed strong to the very end, especially through those gruelling 10 rounds of kumite, true warriors. I do not think there was a dry eye in the room, we were all so very proud. Be sure to address Dylan and Jazzi and Sempai from now on. Thank you to all of our assessors who gave up their weekend to assist with the gradings. Gradings would never run as smoothly without you. Wear your new belts with pride, set some new goals, and keep moving forward. OSU. See more
