Seitou Ryu KarateFrom 29th July to 26th August, the classes held on Monday’s at the South Ockendon dojo with Kim Mandy Sensei will be temporarily merged into one class. The time for the class over the summer holidays is 7pm – 8.30pm.
Children can finish at 8pm or stay on until the end if they wish. Any questions please contact Kim Mandy Sensei on 07572 868 937.
All other classes including the Friday classes held at South Ockendon dojo remain unchanged.
We’re just waiting on the final bit of sponsorship money from the bike ride to come in (£20) and then we have reached our target!
We’ve already started the process of putting our order in for the new mats so fingers crossed we’ll have them in the dojos within the next 2 weeks.
A huge thanks to everyone who took part on the day and to those who sponsored our riders with your generous donations. I’m working on a little video that will go up onto our YouTube page soon. It’s taking a little longer than I thought as I’m still waiting on video footage and photos from a few people but as soon as I have it all I can get it finished and upload it for all of you to see.
The “THANK YOU” page will be up on the site in a few days so be sure to keep a look out.
Once the mats have arrived we’ll get some fun pictures of all the students in action on them!
Osu!

GREAT NEWS!!!
We are pleased to announce that after searching for more suppliers for the mats in an effort to to get a better price, we had a stroke of luck and found a supplier that has the mats we wanted at a much lower price. So much so that when we have reached our target, we will be able to buy DOUBLE the amount of mats! Yes! That’s 200 mats we’re going to be ordering once we reach our target!
This means that South Ockendon and Grays dojos will now get matted out in the next few weeks.
“So why not just get 100 mats?”
The mats are being imported from overseas (hence the lower cost) and have to be collected by freight courier. Our long term goal has always been to get each of our dojos matted so now we are able to achieve this goal much earlier than planned.
We still need to reach our target as the total cost of the mats including freight costs is £2,286 (£6 more than our original target) so please keep sending in your sponsorship for all the riders who took part in the Inter-Dojo Bike Ride last Saturday by clicking the link below or in your local class.
OSU!
