Report referee course held in Tromsø 28. April (Norway)

Report referee course held in Tromsø 28. April

Sunday after Martian Arts seminar was finished Shihan Budtz held a referee course of 3,5 hours, for the dojos referees. 8 referees took part in the course and some of the students also participated as fighters so we could practice different situations.

First part we learned about correct way of using the flags. We exercised in front of the mirror, which is a good way to practice.

Next step was to enter the fighting area for more practice, like how to stop and start a bout, give wazari and ippon. We also practiced how to enter the fighting area and change referee team.

We also practiced how to look for the winner where no points where given. Shihan said that it is very important that the referee pay close attention to the fight so they are able to point out right winner.

It is very important to have god referees to get good tournaments. So we think this course was good for us in our effort to improve our skills as referees.

Report from Martian Arts seminar held in Tromsø, Norway 26-28 of April

Report from Martian Arts seminar held in Tromsø, Norway 26-28 of April

Tromsø karate kyokushinkai held a seminar with Shihan Humberto Budtz as main instructor, assisting him was Sensei Daniel Budtz.

Tema for the first part of the seminar was self-defense in different variations, standing fighting and little bit also on the ground.

Last part was Kyokushinkai tournament kumite.

17 students from our dojo attended the seminar including several black belts.

We had 6 different trainings witch the first was only for black belts. It was an excited group waiting for Shihan teaching. For the first trainings we wear t shirt and shorts and practiced boxing technics with punches to the head. It was a new experience for us wearing boxing gloves and higher guards than we normally do. Shihan and Sensei also introduced new and dynamic training methods for strength and flexibility.

The Kyokushin part was a lot about moving and avoiding kick and then counter attack. He also explained important details about mawashi geri. In the end there were several rounds of kumite.

In the end students were happy after this new experience; we are looking forward to se Shihan and Sensei in our dojo again.

The inaugural open Kumite-Workshop for ALL knockdown fighters (U.K.)

On the afternoon of Saturday 27^th April 2013 students from 5 different dojos across the country travelled to Glasgow city centre train together in Sensei Prasanna Fernando’s SOKYOKUSHIN-Fernando Dojo. This was the inaugural event of a planned series of OPEN KUMITE WORKSHOPS aimed at developing good relationships between the various full-contact Karate dojos in Scotland.

Eighteen students including 9 black belts introduced themselves to one-another as they warmed-up in the dojo before the class started. Formal training began with 2-minute silence in recognition that previous day marked the 19^th anniversary of Sosai Oyama’s death. Sensei Prasanna then led the warm-up and kihon consisting of a 100 Tsuki and Mawashigeri.

After the warm-up students worked in pairs to practice fighting combinations instructed by Shihan Ian Rodger, 5th Dan (from Oban & Lochgilphead dojos). Shihan encouraged students to compare different types of the inside low kick and to pay attention to hitting the exact same spot with consecutive strikes.

The next part of the class was instructed by Sensei Stephen McCann (from the Lyceum dojo, Edinburgh). Under his instruction students worked a single 4-technique combination, breaking-it-down and building-it-up until it became fluid and effective. Sensei Stephen then emphasized the effeteness of “working a pause” before adding a 5^th technique to the combination.

For the last period of tuition Sensei Prasanna encouraged students to practice open-hand techniques that would useful in both tournament fighting and self-defense situations.

The final part of this knockdown workshop was of course dedicated to sparring. This was an opportunity to test the effectiveness of some of the techniques and combinations that had been practiced earlier. It was also a fantastic opportunity to practice fighting exponents of other styles outside of the tournament setting.

The members of the SOKYOKUSHIN-Fernando Dojo United Kingdom  would again like to thank all those who travelled to join us for a great training session.

OSU!

DKO fighting event (Denmark)

DKO fighting event

Saturday 20. of April DKO held the first fighting event in order to prepare those of our members who want to participate as tournament fighters in particular Belgium and the Scandinavian Open.

There were many good fights, especially among boys and men where the standard has increased lately. However the junior girls, a little unexpected, seemed less clear on the task and fought more randomly without much strategy. The younger girls however, had a god standard.

The judges gave an ok effort, but it was evident that it have been some time since last and for some there was some lack of routine. It may yet be obtained, since this year there is series of official courses held by Shihan Budtz.

The event was held in a good spirit and fulfilled its mission in preparation for the international assignments for both fighters and judges.

OSU!
