Women's Self-Defense Course #2 starts on 26 Feb. The current course will run through 19 Feb with the next one starting the next week. We will send an invitation ("booking") to all NKA members. If the class doesn't apply to you (male or child), then please pass the information to woman who would benefit from the training. The course costs $100 and includes 12-hours of instruction presented in six 2-hour blocks.

REMINDER! NKA closes this Saturday and Monday to observe the Martin Luther King, Jr. Federal Holiday weekend. The NEW SCHEDULE goes into effect on Tuesday, 17 January! Also, we've started using the karate cards, so ensure that you pull your card at the beginning of class so that we can credit your attendance and update your progress.

Just uploaded the updated self-defense drills through Blue belt. I also included a chart (created by Kerry) that arranges the drills side-by-side so that you can relate them to each other. It may help you understand the rationale for the sequence. The idea was to string them together in a "fight flow" to aid in memorizing the techniques. It worked great for the White Belt drill, but not as well for the others.

Another great job by Jenn and Lee teaching self-defense to the teenage girls. Lots of positive feedback from participants and parents!
