Also, I edited you post to embed the video because the video embed button has vanished.

Extremely lucky Within a year and a half i have gone from knowing nothing about karate to witnessing karate performed at the top level. The kids / teenagers and adults at the club have all benifitted from these players being at our club and the experience will rub off on them.

Did you watch the whole vid? Its not very often that a 6 year old gets to captain a double world champ, he didnt really look to out of place either apart from the size obviously Next time they come over they can do Heian Nidan and Jion hehe.

Thanx Chapel for embedding the video and i agree Mostafa doesnt over elaborate with unneeded noises he just lets the moves do the talking.

Sarah - shoto ryu
YouTube - Sarah Kata

Sarah has actually taught herself for the last few years as shoto ryu is not practised as much as shotokan in Egypt. She`s doing something right anyway.

Shaymaa - kumite

Tough little nut is Shaymaa, what she makes up for in size she makes up for in speed.

The last vid is a competition we attended a couple of weeks back its the opening ceremony and Mostafa performs kata before teh games commence. Not a bad job i made of the vid as per usual it was all done on my phone. Our club are wearing the blue trackies and my boy leadsd them out.

Karate + Led zeppelin

Any comments would be appreciated.
