Beginners Course September 2012

The next CARISMA beginners course, will start on Thursday 18 September 2012 to run for 4 consecutive Tuesday and Thursday classes (e.g. 18, 20, 25, 27). The club is currently very busy for this period of the year and we recently enjoyed several busy beginners’ courses (see picture); we often have Tues and Thurs classes (our busiest ones) with up to 30 people.

September is always one of our busiest recruitment periods so if you would like to join CARISMA (or you know somebody who would like to) please do it on the 18 September.

Please notice: you must join the beginners’ course just if you are a total beginnner. Any previous experience in striking martial arts (kickboxing, muai thai, karate, tae kwon do, kung fu, etc…) is appreciated and will allow you to join without without going through the beginners’ course. Please get in touch with us if in doubt.

There is no need for booking for beginners: please just turn up at 6pm at Kelsey Kerridge.

Raising Money for Kickathon

I would like to remind to everyone that Kickathon is happening this Saturday 7 and Sunday 8 July; if you would like to raise money for EACH please get a form from Massimo at the classes.  Alternatively you could ask people to donate on line.  We set up a CARISMA page on Just Giving and the money will go directly to EACH.  In short for every £1 you collect you have to do 10 kicks against a pad… it is going to be fun!
