Sensei Bell has announced that both he and Jessica will be unavailable to take the mid-week training on Wednesday, 9th February and so that class will not be taking place. Students are also reminded that the Saturday class on the 5th was cancelled due to the North Vs South championships.

NORTH VS SOUTH OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP
NIKW have announced the 20th Annual North Vs South Open Karate championship taking place next month in Belfast. Although this event will be conducted under WKF rules, Sensei Bell urges all applicable club members to take part or come along to show support for our competitors. This is a great opportunity to compete against UK and Irish clubs, and also different styles such as Wado-Kai and Shotokan.
Venue: Royal Belfast Institute, Belfast
Date: Saturday, 05-FEB-2011
Time: 09:00 to 18:00
This event is open to kids, cadets, juniors and seniors. All entries must be made through Sensei Bell ASAP as the closing date for entries is 15th January. Regular club training is not expected to take place that Saturday.
NEW YEAR, NEW PRICING!
Hopefully you all had a pleasant holiday break, and are enjoying a prosperous new year so far. Unfortunately, the new calendar year also brings in new pricing for Saturday classes at the Robinson Centre. This pricing is set independently of Kiryoku, and there’s no planned increase for the Sunday or Wednesday night training sessions.
Also due to a rise in federation membership and karateka insurance, the yearly WIKF subscription has increased as well. Sensei Bell recently gave out information detailing the increase which came into effect from January 1st.
