gkr_bunny Posted August 14, 2004 Share Posted August 14, 2004 Hey... Was searching the net for Sepai clips and came across this site so I thought that I would check it out and see exactly what was on it. I'm a 16yr old Perth Girl [17 in Oct] who has been training with GKR [Go-Kan-Ryu] Karate for the last 3 years. A SDC came around to my house and I practically had to beg my family to let me join, and I guess I've been karate mad ever since. I'm an instructor, have been for a year now, and have finally got my own class. I'm a 3rd Kyu [brown Belt, 2nd Kyu next month] and yeah... pretty much all about me I suppose. If you live in, or have been to, Perth... I train on a Wednesday night at Senior training in Gosnells. I teach on a Saturday at Cloverdale. And I'm second sensei on a tuesday night [cloverdale] and thursday night [riverton]. We're all pretty close in GKR. Especially us young ones... [16-23] as we have formed a close-knit group for ourselves. Because karate is a major part of our lives, it's hard to be in a relationship with someone who doesn't do karate because it's so time consuming. My boyfriend recently got his Shodan-Ho [1st grading this year], so I know if I ever need help, I have someone close to me to look up to. That's about it...

Rotten Head Fok Posted August 15, 2004 Share Posted August 15, 2004 Hello, Welcome to KF! You must be stable and balanced in your foot work, if you have to use your martial knowledge in combat, your intent should be to win. If you do strike, you must release great power! The martial arts are easy to learn, but difficult to correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
