Our Spring Semester at Grace Martial Arts will be a little shorter than in past years because of the two Monday nights we lost to Tampa City elections and family vacation plans after Memorial Day. We will have 7 training weeks and 2 testing weeks.
Here are the primary focuses of each class for the Spring Semester:
Spiritual — Bible Verses & Character Qualities for your next belt level
Kihon — escapes, blocks, strikes, kicks, traps, and throws appropriate for each belt level
Kata — 6pm class: Pinan Nidan (this is the second Kata on the Pinan DVD) 7pm class: 2nd half of Praying Mantis Form (not available on DVD yet)
Kumite — 6pm class: Bunkai from Pinan Nidan 7 pm class: Bunkai from Praying Mantis Form
Kime — Focus in all things Spiritual and Physical
