NEWSLETTER JULY 30th 2020 Dear Ken Shin Kai Members, I am excited to announce that our Dojo will open for business again at 09.00am Monday, August 3rd. I chose not to follow the pack and rush to open on July 25th in order to take time to review our Dojo position with regards to safety for all our members as well as to plan for the new classes we are adding to the timetable. The BJJ classes will no longer be held in the Dojo which means we now have the opportunity to offer more classes at better time slots as well as adding the long awaited Karate-Jutsu self-defence classes, that were constantly inquired after. More details will follow on these self-defence sessions and they are as you would expect suitable to all students and age. They will be based on my many years training in Aiki-Jutsu, Karate-Jutsu, Aikido and Traditional Japanese Ju-jutsu. It will of course be combined with techniques from Karate and Kickboxing and I will continue to develop this with some of my old training partners and Sensei as we evolve our own system. Since March 24th, I have provided between 2 and 4 classes on-line everyday and they have been really well received. I thank you all for participating in the Virtual sessions and trust you enjoyed them as much as I have. In total I have provided these classes for 127 days without a day off. Looking at the statistics, I have done 362 classes and there have been 3,258 participants in total. WOW…… I didn’t realise how many it was. I have also completely overhauled and painted the Dojo during that time. I am look forward to having a break on Sunday to try to rest and recharge for our next chapter. I ask that all our Dojo members please check that your membership is ready and up to date in order to participate in this new and exciting schedule of classes. The past 4 months have been a huge struggle and I ask that everyone please contact me and ensure that memberships and fees are set up properly to avoid any misunderstandings from Monday . The new timetable will be a little fluid until we see what works best for each class and members alike. We reserve the right to make changes to this. The timetable was put out to members last night and is attached below. It will also be on the website as well as on the BookFit App for the time being. Due to popular demand, I will continue the Virtual classes and this will be set in place better after the first few weeks of our return to Ken Shin Kai. This will take a little more time to schedule along side the Dojo sessions to check what works best for all. We must adhere to strict distancing at the moment and therefore now, more than ever, it is critical that everyone uses the BookFit App. You find it on AppStore and sign up for an account with an email and then find Ken Shin Kai to book classes. We have to limit class sizes so please ensure you use this and get in on time. You cannot just turn up as we have to adhere to regulations.

NEWSLETTER JULY 30th 2020

Dear Ken Shin Kai Members,

I am excited to announce that our Dojo will open for business again at 09.00am Monday, August 3rd.

I chose not to follow the pack and rush to open on July 25th in order to take time to review our Dojo position with regards to safety for all our members as well as to plan for the new classes we are adding to the timetable. The BJJ classes will no longer be held in the Dojo which means we now have the opportunity to offer more classes at better time slots as well as adding the long awaited Karate-Jutsu self-defence classes, that were constantly inquired after. More details will follow on these self-defence sessions and they are as you would expect suitable to all students and age. They will be based on my many years training in Aiki-Jutsu, Karate-Jutsu, Aikido and Traditional Japanese Ju-jutsu. It will of course be combined with techniques from Karate and Kickboxing and I will continue to develop this with some of my old training partners and Sensei as we evolve our own system.

Since March 24th, I have provided between 2 and 4 classes on-line everyday and they have been really well received. I thank you all for participating in the Virtual sessions and trust you enjoyed them as much as I have. In total I have provided these classes for 127 days without a day off. Looking at the statistics, I have done 362 classes and there have been 3,258 participants in total. WOW…… I didn’t realise how many it was. I have also completely overhauled and painted the Dojo during that time. I am look forward to having a break on Sunday to try to rest and recharge for our next chapter.

I ask that all our Dojo members please check that your membership is ready and up to date in order to participate in this new and exciting schedule of classes. The past 4 months have been a huge struggle and I ask that everyone please contact me and ensure that memberships and fees are set up properly to avoid any misunderstandings from Monday.

The new timetable will be a little fluid until we see what works best for each class and members alike. We reserve the right to make changes to this. The timetable was put out to members last night and is attached below. It will also be on the website as well as on the BookFit App for the time being. Due to popular demand, I will continue the Virtual classes and this will be set in place better after the first few weeks of our return to Ken Shin Kai.

SUMMER SOCIAL

By way of acknowledging what we have all be though together, I am planning a Summer Social evening one weekend where we can all BYO to meet and chat “at arm’s length” outdoors to just have a a little time together without the blood, sweat and tears of training over the past months. Everyone will be made welcome. Watch this space.

Again, I want to thank you all for your support over this truly unexpected and testing time and I invite you all to contact me and get back to the Dojo.
