Summer Event 2013 Canvassing

April 23rd, 2013

Due to lack of support for this event we have now cancelled a pity as it could have provided a good summer get together…

Club Committee August 2013

—————————————————————————————

URGENT NOTICE!!!!!!!!!

WE HAVE SO FAR RECEIVED THREE QUERIES FOR THIS EVENT IF YOU WOULD LIKE FOR THIS EVENT TO HAPPEN WE NEED MORE NAMES SOON………..

CLUB COMMITTEE 15th July 2013

……………………………………………………………………………………………..

We have had some students and parents approach during courses and grading asking about a summer get together as a Club somewhere this year during summer.

In all honesty this is something that could be organised and I think if there is enough interest we can get together and organise things..

So there you have it  two things we will need to get this going… a) your name and number of possible participants b) a venue where we could do this…

I think the general feel is for the use of a park as an outing…we could all bring our picnic and share some food and company and chatter..

So for the next two weeks put your thinking caps on and let us know where you would like to go hopefully on a dry day.

If you let me know I will set up a list and we will make a decision by the end of May… my preference Valentines Park in Ilford..August 24 or 25th but will go with the mayority’s decision.

Chief Instructor.

Changes to Friday sessions

April 23rd, 2013

It is with regret that we have to announce that Sydney Rusell Leisure Centre will not have a lesson anymore.. Our last session will be on the 24th May, this is due to the falling numbers of students sadly we have have reached a stage wher we can no longer make a  case for sustaining a lesson there.

Students that are left will need to move to Becontree Heath Leisure Centre and join the Class there (7-8pm)..

Please note  from the 7th of June there will be two classes at Becontree Heath Leisure Centre 6-7 pm beginners to purple belts 7-8 pm brown belts and bove..

Keep training
