April’s Special Training focused on fundamentals (starting with our most basic kata – Taikyoku Shodan), timing drills (to improve our footwork), bunkai (the basic application of kata) and kumite (2 attack sparring). A welcome reminder to all that we need to balance our focus on kata and weapons training with the application of these techniques.
