This week we see Sensei John take the opportunity to do a bit of training on the very uneven surface en-route to Wat Khao Krailas.

This video was taken about halfway up the rocky ascent. Views behind show Khao Takiab and the Gulf of Siam.

Another video of Sensei John doing a bit of light training after running up the mountain to Wat Khao Sana. With a sheer drop behind him, you can see Khao Takiab and the Gulf of Thailand in the distance. At that height above sea level, there was quite a cooling breeze blowing.

A couple of videos showing Sensei John injecting an element of fun into the children's karate class. There has to be an element of fun to keep young minds interested:

SHIRT UPDATE

We have been to the manufacturer today, and there are some slight changes to the spec i.e.:

- Shirt will be polo, not round collar.
- Colour will be black with yellow collar.

Last chance to order will be this evening. As already stated, students will receive a shirt each, free of charge. Additional 'paid for' shirts will cost 250 Baht + the cost of embroidery - maximum 350 Baht, but probably less.

Delivery in 3 weeks.
