It was fantastic to see the progress across the squad today, with members applying ideas from previous sessions and continuing to build on them. Today’s session reinforced the importance of consistency, purposeful practice and attention to detail.

Paul Dowell Sensei and Natalie Böttcher Sensei focused on practical kata and kumite drills that can continue to be developed at home and in the dojo as preparations continue for the upcoming competitions.

Keep training, keep learning and keep supporting one another. The hard work is paying off, and we’re looking forward to seeing everyone continue their progress in the weeks ahead.

Congratulations to HDKI - GB squad members Natalie and Amelia, who competed at the British Open in London today. 🥋

Both delivered strong kata performances and secured medals in their respective categories:
🥈 Natalie – Silver
🥉 Amelia – Bronze

It was also great to see Hazel and Laurel from Sonchō Karate Club testing their kata they have been working on. Laurel’s efforts were rewarded with a well-deserved 🥉 bronze medal.

Well done to all four competitors for stepping onto the tatami and putting themselves to the test.

Fantastic to see Ray Sensei support the event as a referee doing a brilliant job 👊

Well done to everyone who trained in Cheltenham today.

Loads of effort and enthusiasm as we focused on explosive starts using tubes, sharp ex*****on, efficient turns, and clean finishes. Various kumite drills focused on clean attacks, accuracy, reaction speed, and tactical awareness.

Plenty of ideas to take away and develop in own training. Great work everyone 👊

The next squad training will be the National Squad Training in Dudley on Sunday 12th July.
