On Saturday December 5, WYKKO of Oxford hosted the last Southeast
Knockdown training of 2015. We had fighters from Yoshukai, Shidokan,
Mushindo, and Deans Martial Arts.
Fighters came from Alabama, Georgia,
Louisiana, and Pennsylvania. This was a great day of knockdown training
and fellowship between several different styles. Ego's were left at the
door and everyone had a great attitude and work ethic throughout the
entire 3 hours training session.
Kelly Leo from
Shidokan North, GA led the first hour of training focusing on using
angles and cut kicks. I want to express my gratitude to Mr. Leo for
taking a day out of his busy schedule to come and work with us. The 2nd
hour focused on pad work specific to knockdown karate competition.
The
final hour consisted of 13 x 2 minute sparring rounds. Everyone enjoyed the training and we are looking forward to holding 4 of
these workouts in different locations throughout 2016.

Osu!
