Meanwhile, Shuseki Shihan Frank Woon-a-Tai would be in the country for three months and will be teaching on Monday’s, Wednesday’s and Friday’s at the Guyana Karate College, while on Tuesday’s and Thursdays he would be at the YMCA.
These sessions are in preparation for the upcoming IKD Caribbean Karate Championships scheduled for August 23-25 next at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall. While students would be targeted, training for Judges and Instructors would also be done.
Karate is not just kicking and punching, it is much more detailed and repeated courses are a prerequisite for instructors. Without these training courses the IKD Instructors will not be adequately trained to teach Shotokan Karate to the people.
