The Dojo floor is now in it's 4th phase.

Phase 1 - was a concrete and tiled floor.

Phase 2 - was the lino floor in the photos.

Phase 3 - was the tiled floor, which was around until children's kumite training started. Young James was KO'd and tried to break the tiles with his head.

Phase 4 - was the introduction of the Eva Foam interlocking mats, just 1 week after the James incident.

Phase 5 - will be the introduction of extra soft foam mats on which falls and rolls can be practiced. These should be in the Dojo by the New Year. These mats will be used more for Aikido than karate.

CLUB NOTICE

Construction work has started on the jungle opposite the dojo. The first phase is building a wall the length of our road. This means there will be no access through the jungle either on foot or motorised vehicle.

The other effect is there is limited turning in the road, If you drive past the dojo to the end of the road, it is possible to turn there. Dustbin lorries can turn there, so cars can turn with no problem.

Martial Arts has expanded at the WKF Dojo. The Dojo is now hosting both Aikido and Tai-Chi sessions. All martial art sessions at the WKF are small, with an emphasis on training, not profit. Martial arts should be a vocation, not a business. All money received, is put back into the club in a variety of ways.

The Dojo has recently invested almost 50,000 Baht in the correct matting for Aikido, and we believe is the only Dojo in the area correctly equipped.
Some of the specialised 'Tumble Mats' in use.

Aikido and Tai-Chi training is undertaken predominantly on a Tuesday, although Aikido training expands rapidly when our Chief Instructor (also teaches local Thai police and military) visits – he’s due again next month.
