Training outside

[malk103]

Tonight our hall hirer got us double booked with the local school play...

In the field outside was the local cricket team and on one end of the field the local keep fit club were warming up. With no other option we trained on the field in the other corner.

Great fun in the sun, just had to keep the Kiai's down a bit, I was thinking of changing the Kiai to "Out" just to upset the cricket team but that wouldn't be in keeping with a good Karate club. ;D
I got them to growl instead!

We train out on the lawn when it's nice out. It's especially great when the weather is hot & sticky. We have no AC

I love training outside. Really good to get outside the "state dependent" (or place dependent) learning having classes in the same indoor space seems to breed. Similar benefits to practicing without the gi or with shoes sometimes. And nothing wrong with fresh air.
