A proud Sensei Petros with Sensei Sakagami and Sensei Nukina at the end of an excellent day of training with respected Karateka

Sensei Petros and nine students of the Doragon Karate Club attended this special event which demonstrated a new concept which is currently sweeping Japan. Based on an almost forgotten traditional budo karate technique; Sensei Nukina's course included control of gravity and Tanden ( how to generate your inner energy) it is not only essential for kumite but indespensible for all aspects of Karate. The Doragon Karate Club students were joined by an old friend, Julia Clarke from the Cranham Higashi Karate Kai in Essex.

A proud Mother and grandmother Julia Clarke of Cranham Higashi Karate Kia in Essex spent some time talking to Sensei Nukina about adapting his techniques for the more matrue student.

Whilst the course was intensive and tested the stamina and experience of all the students the overall opinion was " a great day " "I wouldn't have missed it for the world" " Well worth travelling to Swansea just to experience such mastery" "We want more of this training." There were of course lighter sides to the day and the humour of all the senior Sensei lightened the ardouos training
