The test for the current weapons training will be on December 4 starting at 6 pm at the Fox Dojo (Weston Community Center).
Remember that the test consists of 3 parts
1-Written (study your package that you received at the seminar and do extra reading) There is a lot of interesting information available on the internet of course. Not all of it is relevant to what we do, but all knowledge is good. There are books available about the Sai and Bo by Fumio Demura and are readily available from many sources, including Amazon. You are encouraged to have these books in your personal Karate library.
2- Physical Test. Exercises, stretching, blocking system, striking techniques, dexterity drills, stances, self-defense, throwing the weapon, control and come along techniques and everything else that we have covered in the seminar and in class. Don’t forget that you must prepare your own mini kata; basic course= a minimum of 5 moves and in the advanced course you must perform a minimum of 10 moves. Sai and Nunchaku students must show courtesy with the hakama.
3- Kata. You will perform your kata in front of a panel of senseis on your own.
