Come see us June 20th on the Pulaski Square. Starting at 12:00 noon students will demonstrate Wado karate and self-defense techniques that has made our style one of the major martial art organizations in the world.
Techniques will include blocks, punches, and kicks. No move in karate is wasted. Each move is devised to be extremely effective without unnecessary motion. For example, the technique in making a simple middle block, (called Soto Uke), not only block once, which is visibly evident, but not so evident is another block and a striking technique.
We will demonstrate sparring for self-defense and for sport competition. Katas, prearranged fighting techniques, that increase in difficulty as the student progresses. Katas teach balance, coordination, and defensive techniques that the student can continue learning at home.
Also, we will show skits or scenarios in "what-if" situations. In other words, what if a stranger grabs your arm… or what if someone tries to force you in a car unwillingly… or what if you are attacked by someone larger and stronger than yourself …
Hopefully, this year will not be a repeat of last year and the rain will hold off until after we finish. Although, rain does help keep us cool during a workout.
Come see the booths, enjoy the food and music while at the Taste of Giles County with us, See you there!
