The annual mid Xmas and New Year session was held on Wednesday 30th December. Despite the rain, illness and of course the family commitments, ten of the members gathered for the final session of the year.

The session concentrated on reverse arm blocking techniques. As the class got to grips with the idea we moved onto putting it into practice. Not so straightforward when being attacked. To the members credit it all clicked into place - most of the time!

The practice illustrated how much regular Karate practice pre conditions the muscles to act in a "reaction" manner.
