Won some medals. That was nice.

Met some old bees who now train elsewhere in the UK. Also nice.

We had guest. It was pleasant. We'd have him back.

As we said: "It's not a goodbye, Safe travels and learning, More a: don't die."

Off goes Sam to do military stuff for a while.

The Average height of the dojo just lowered.

Final keiko of 2021

Two new Ikkyus in the dojo.

Dear all,
Some bad news... It looks like the Tier conditions for indoor sports has changed in that for Tier 3 no adult indoor sports are allowed.... which means we have to wait until we're into Tier 2 to return to the dojo (assuming no other changes).
As such, with Christmas approaching, we have decided to not restart practice this year, even if Manchester changes Tiers in a couple of weeks.
I wish you all good health and keep safe. Have a Christmas and New Year as good as can be and will see you all in 2021 (I will update once we get a definite date for restart).
PS Don't get too fat over December, you will regret it...

Unfortunately, from the latest BKA announcement, it has been advised that any region with a Tier 2 or 3 restriction should not practise indoors which means that we will have to suspend our sessions for now.

If there are any changes, I will post here so please keep an eye out for things.
