Willie Thomas Seminar
Willie Thomas, England number one kumite coach and twice world champion, visited Dokan's Redhouse club on the 11th of May for a totally enjoyable session open to all of Dokan's students.
We had a big cross section of grades and ages attend and Willie kept things simple and informative so that all could enjoy.
Willie was very complimentary about the overall standard of the students and expressed a wish for me to start bringing some of the older ones down to the squad training sessions - held about four times a year at Barnsley.
The session was not what I expected. It was far more enjoyable than the usual seminars and the kids loved it.
We will have to get Willie Thomas back again soon.
