Welcome to 2018!
Hi guys!
Hope you all have been training hard and smart. We’ve had a great start to the year. Lots of new members so be sure to say hello to any new faces on the mat.
Please remember! We welcome all people of all levels of experience and inexperience, so bring friends or family along for a trial class on Saturdays (or any day really) – no need to book. We also have kids under 12’s on Saturdays at 11am (starting again on 3rd Feb) and teen 12yrs+ on Mondays and Wednesdays from 4pm starting again next week.
Besides the seminar on Sunday 4th Feb (details below) here are important dates over the next couple of weeks:
Tues 23rd 5pm – Girls Sparring Class (Girls BJJ class will be next month) Looks like we’re going to have a great turnout so far! Sparring with the guys is actually quite fun, but standing in front of some skilled dude 20+ kgs heavier than you can be pretty intimidating especially while you’re finding your feet! Even for the more experienced of us, pulling off takedowns can be challenging with that kind of weight differential as well. So having a sparring class for girls only is a pretty good idea!! We’ll cover sparring drills and skills, head movement, footwork, pad drills and some light sparring. Hope you all can attend! No Josh Smith…you cannot.
Tues 30th 6pm – Seniors Class (Black Belt and above) all instructors please do your best to attend. Sifu will be covering coaching essentials such as how to plan and execute a Wing Chun class, so if you have questions, get them ready. More of what he has planned will be updated next week, but there will be a Wing Chun by request segment so think about techniques, principles or drills that you would like more understanding about.
Seminar Sunday 4th February 10:30am The Winning MIND:

“Friends and family welcome.
A detailed study on the processes of elite performance athletes and how you can tap into your most valuable asset: your mind.
We have all witnessed when an athlete seems to punch above their weight, or out strip their apparent physical abilities. Invariably it’s the mindset that makes the difference.
This seminar will explore what makes them different and how to apply these unique skill sets to your own game/life.
At the end of the day you will have the unbreakable confidence that no one can negatively affect -not even you!! The motivation to push toward your destination regardless of any hurdle or obstacle you may face. The concentration to block anything that is not enhancing your purpose. The ability to achieve “flow state” at will, in essence, controlling time and space so as to experience perfect technique. And the organisational skills to keep powering forward – to set goals and create plans to achieve them and to understand the value of the feedback loop.
Please allow a half day for this seminar. We will also be getting advice from our own NLP Master Amy on how to fast track flow state, motivation – why it doesn’t always last and what you can do about it, moving beyond your limitations.
$80 per person, general public welcome!”
