Examination review...............
Below is very short video clip featuring photos and short video of the recent club grading at Blackpool and Wyre Karate Ryu.
The evening itself was a hot environment due to the weather but equally as it was an IJKA Grading undertaken by Shihan Kato, which is always a difficult and nervous time for club Karateka.
Senior grades were taken through the Bunkai of Kata Heian Nidan whilst the junior Kyu grades were put through their paces of examination.
Later 3rd Kyu grades and upwards went through the Bunkai of Bassai Dai with the great master himself Shihan Kato 9th Dan IJKA, to give a clear understanding of this tough Kata, which means "To Penetrate a Fortress".
The presentation took place shortly afterwards and was celebrated by a lovely Thai meal in the market town of Poulton Le Fylde.
