A big thank you to Master Smith for the Karate sessions that you ran at the school over the last term. The pupils thoroughly enjoyed them and comments ranged from, ‘great’ ‘exciting’ ‘awesome’ to ‘wicked’ ‘fun’ and ‘excellent’. All the teachers felt it was worthwhile and said that the pupils gained a lot from the coaching in terms of fitness, discipline and enjoyment. A number of our pupils have since taken up karate and are very grateful for being part of the taster sessions. Can I, on behalf of the staff and pupils, thank you for your time and for the excellent coaching that you brought to the school. JJ Beecher. Durham Road Junior School, Newport.
Extract from a student’s school report Since Shannon has joined Mr Smith’s Karate club I have noticed a huge improvement in her behaviour, she is a lot calmer and she has a more grown-up attitude in class.
