]]> We were delighted to welcome Sensei John Deans (5th Dan JKA Instructor and Scottish squad manager and coach) to our dojo to put us through our paces. We were treated to a high energy course that left our brains buzzing and muscles aching.

Sensei John bought his experience, West Coast wit and eye for detail, to teach 3 hours focusing on Kata and Kumite. Working through the key elements of Attitude, Technique, Speed and Strength, and connecting the precision of Kata with the energy and power of free sparring.

Did we learn a lot? OSS Sensei!
