Bo Course at Okasan Karate Club...

The Bo course started at 2pm and was well attended by both junior and senior students including Sensei Samantha Hughes from Staffordshire Wado Ryu. In addition, for a couple of students, it was their very first weapons course.

Sensei Ray made the introduction to the Bo, which was followed by a warm up session paying particular attention to arms and wrists. The course continued in basic handling of the Bo and Bo strikes, which was then put to use in pair work.

The second half of the session was taken by Sensei Roy, demonstrating and teaching the basic Bo kata Shuji no Kon Sho.

Everyone worked hard at the Bo and a good afternoon was had by all.

The day finished at a local pub enjoying a meal before, what was to be, a long journey home to Birmingham for Sensei Ray & Roy, in the snow!
