Frank Brennan, andy sherry, bob poynton, bob rhodes, terry o neill, billy higgins, matt price, chris cray, jj bruce....i do shotokan:) lol

I think that to be better at Karate and to improve the key is to have the right frame of mind all of the time. This is a very good way to improve the standard of your Karate.

i just push my hips forward and keep my legs straight and then it is easy, i can almost touch the floor now, it took me alot of practice though.

I already have and its working now.Hmmm, this site is never gonna get the gallery added to it, is it.

Hmm, thats a good site for learning new kata's.

When i try to get on it now, it loads up like the hollow, and i cant be bothered waiting.

poor david, you must have been chuffed that frank brennan asked you to go, ahhhh, i wish i was as known as you, you lucky rat!!! lol

Huh, day, that doesent happen to me, your most probably twisting your hips to far, or maybe you need to strengthen your legs, lol.

cool, day, anyway,what has this site got on it? I cant get onto it....

I dont know!!! im only a 8th kyu, a measly 8th kyu!!! I also wanna see what a black belt grading is like, i might go and watch my mate.

Of course i am, i am always right! lol, anyway, why is there an age restriction?!

K, i dont want to start a fight in the forum, anyway, i was just saying you were a fool to u derestimate him, anyone would have made the same mistake of course.

I wear a white Gi, a red belt and on the Gi there is the shotokan symbol.

I am just pointing out that you underestimated his speed because he looked slow and big, just a bit of friendly advice for you my friend.

Well at first i thought that i was not very good, but then i DOUBLE GRADED! If you are serious about karate like me and you listen to everyword of your sensei and maybe some friends.....then you will do very well indeed.

Well david, i agree with you need speed aswell as power, but power alone worked for BEN ROWLEY!!!

I really need to have experiance in shotokan kumite! Ive been to full contact kickboxing! But ive never been in a karate kumite fight! I need to become a yellow belt before i can fight in the ring! Im only a red belt, so nopt long before i can FIGHT!

I go to the red triangle! You give me a lift there david!!!!

Yeah, ive seen the video of davids fantastic gyaku zukie, it was frightning, the little sicko! He goes mad sometimes ya know...!!!

Sorry,i meant to say sensei frank brennan.....so anyway thats news to me that he used to be a gymnastics person...

In shotokan were i go you have to be 21 in order to go in for your 3rd dan, i think....

Frank knows gymnastrics?! Really?! I didnt know that.

I suggest squats such as kibadachi or shikadachi, you know what i mean...or you could go running with me around the cem!!!!

I think the rowing machine is good for exercise, its kinda of an all rounder, helps alot of your body more than just one part. Im only 14 though, so they wont let me use it in the gym yet...i will be able to use it when im 15.

I am sore sometimes after some really hard workout lessons, were the sensie has you working like a bloody slave!
