Summer fun!

 Truth be told, the summer here in the UK hasn't been great, whilst mild in temperature, we have had a lot of windy, rainy weather. Typically now that the schools start again, the weather turns quite beautiful.. 

I went to Poland mid august, to attend a JKD summercamp. Instructor was Sifu Richard Torres.  We had attendees from the UK, US, Netherlands, Germany and Poland. We had 7 days of training with 8 training sessions total of 2.5 hours.  Generally we had great sunny summer weather, temperatures averaged between 24-28 degrees C.  Typically, the only day we decided to take a group picture of all attendees, we had one system with rain and some thunderstorms travel through the area, but it lasted only for a few hours.  Most important though, we trained, learned, laughed, made new friends, reaquainted with old friends and all came away with great memories. Another advantage to be involved in Jeet Kune Do, or martial arts in general. 

Walk On!
