On January 6th, along with our Greasby classes, we are opening a new Dojo at Clare Mount Specialist Sports College in Leasowe.
We are so, so excited for this fantastic development.
With 2 new classes starting every week, we are able to provide even more opportunities for students both old and new to develop on their Karate Journey.
As such, we now have a new name. Randori has a number of meanings, some of which are very near and dear to my heart. A name long talked about between myself and Damion Wood Sensei, Randori is often translated as Fighting or Free Sparring. But, there is more to it than that.
It can also be translated as Laundry. During the covid pandemic, a laundry unit was a haven for Karateka across Merseyside, giving us somewhere safe and legal we could train.
Not only that, Randori can be translated as Grasping Freedom, something which I feel both myself and Randori SKC have firmly done over the last few years.
Here’s to the next step on our Karate Journey!
