This is a log of my journey to Shotokan Karate Shodan and beyond.

Friday Karate class.

Excellent class.  We spent most of the time working on hip mobility and specific parts of our kata.  The moves were very hard and not only made heavy use of our hips but it also focused on speed and coordination.   One movement started in a back stance knife hand block, then spin around in to a front stance groin strike and then into a back stance double block from Heian Godan.
