Every student worked hard but an extra well done goes to the Little Tigers even the very youngest students were exceptionally well behaved and the concentration and hard work from them was fabulous. The students that particularly stood out for us this time were Little Tigers Stephen Junior Chambers and Dylan Lane Elliott Bradshaw from the junior group and Shaun Prince from the adult group well done keep up the good work Results will be ready for collection in classes this week. The next grading date has been set for 2nd May 2010. 2010-1-24 08:43:04 http://www.whitetigerkickboxing.com/page19.htm#56623 There will be a new Little Tiger class age 510 from Wednesday 3rd February 2010.

The first hour was semicontact sparring and the second hour was light continuous. Some of the students are very new to sparring and it was pleasing to see them get stuck in and really hold their own against some of the more experienced and higher grade students. Well done to everyone. Many of you spar during your classes but this is an opportunity for extra practice especially those who want to take part in the White Tiger Match Fight later in the year. Keep an eye out on the events page for next months sparring class date. 2010-1-17 17:17:36 http://www.whitetigerkickboxing.com/page19.htm#55978 I have received a phone call today from the treasurer at Mapperley Methodist Church who sends his sincere thanks to everyone who donated money towards their refurbishment scheme. During the run up to Christmas we raised 163199.26 from students who put their spare change into a jar and at the Christmas party we had a guess the toy names competition. There is a possibility that the money may be put towards a spruce up on the hall floor which will benefit us as much as it will benefit them. The church have asked if there are any of our students who would donate some of their time to helping do the job I would think that they would hire a sanding machine and get the sealant out of the money but I dont think it will be enough to pay a contractor. If anyone can offer to help with this I will sort out some free lessonsgradings etc to make it worth your time.

A huge well done to our youngest group the Little Tigers age 510 for their concentration efforts and excellent behaviour for the whole grading. They all did well but on the day the ones that particularly stood out were Nathan Oren amp Courtney an extra well done to you three. All Little Tigers who graded higher than red showed a big improvement on their last grade scores and two students scored themselves a merit congratulations to Oren amp Eden. There were only a few juniors grading this time and again improvement was shown from their last grades well done Abigail you have improved a lot in recent months and it showed in your grading. Many of the adults are now established members and are therefore moving up the ranks to higher grades. I was pleased with everyones efforts the ones who particularly stood out for their techniques were Steve Chambers and Kelly Hill. There were also three students who graded for their... 2009-10-25 07:26:40 http://www.whitetigerkickboxing.com/page19.htm#50875 Brilliant seminar today with Jason Dorn on Principles of Power. Myself and Matt Bowen attended the course and I can absolutely say that Matt listened to everything that was being taught ............. I think my shoulders are still in place just Picked up some really useful things myself which Ill be putting to good use. Really good turn out Ian Harrison from Dragon brought a few guys along and Jay had a few of his own students there so it was a really good atmosphere. Loved the session although my shoulders are still buring from the last couple of exercises 2009-10-18 17:31:07 http://www.whitetigerkickboxing.com/page19.htm#50873 Just arrived back from Quarteira Portugal 2009 International Training Holiday. It was a brilliant experience with styles such as Kickboxing JuJitsu Aikido Freestyle AikidoShiatsu Karate GojuRyu Bujinkan Judo HawaiiKenpo and DefesaPessoal. The styles were taught by English and Portugese instructors ranging from 5th 8th Dan. The training was brilliant and to top it all I graded for my 3rd Dan while I was there which made every bruise worth while Liam amp I went for a week which also allowed us to enjoy the sun relax and have fun. The weather was hot the pool was freezing food was good made some new friends and overall had a great time. 2009-10-15 17:15:08 http://www.whitetigerkickboxing.com/page19.htm#49974 Squad training at Paragon this morning with Jason Dorn and his students. Combination of semicontact amp boxing drills and sparring techniques picking up with some light sparring to finish off a good session. Myself and Ric Hill went along to this one today is really good for us to work with students from Jasons group. Thoroughly enjoyed it great atmosphere Jason and his students always make us feel very welcome every time we train with them. 2009-10-4 14:37:22 http://www.whitetigerkickboxing.com/page19.htm#49973 Saturday 3rd October saw the new intake of Kyusho students. Ric Hill Steve Wilson amp Neil Marshall have joined the study programme at PKO with Instructor Jason Dorn. It might seem a lot to take in during the early stages but it does make sense after a few more sessions..........honest Your next session is planned for Saturday 7th November at the slightly later time of 2pm. Then from the new year you will merge in with all the other students from other levels. 2009-10-3 14:27:13 http://www.whitetigerkickboxing.com/page19.htm#48679 Well done to the team who entered the Peterborough Series on 13th September. The team for this event was Matt Drew Matt Bowen Alan Williams Rob DunkleyRoss Liam Spowage amp Ric Hill. Well done to everyone there was a huge improvement from all of you today. Very well done to Matt Drew who got 1st and Rob DunkleyRoss who got 2nd in points. Massive improvement from Alan this time who got drawn against the same brown belt as his last two fights but put up an excellent fight and only lost out by a couple of points well done Alan Many thanks to Kelly Trev Roxanne Elliott amp Ethan for coming along to support the team. 2009-9-13 11:39:45 http://www.whitetigerkickboxing.com/page19.htm#47870 Liam amp I went along to Nottingham School of Blackbelts on Sunday 30th August to watch their Interclub tournament. The standard was exceptional especially the points and there was an brilliant atmosphere. There were a few familiar faces from the Boston amp Peterborough series and also Ian Harrison from Dragon Freestyle had a group of students who took part and came away with a few medals and trophies. It was a pleasure to meet Owen King the Chief Instructor of NSBB and also Avinder Panesar from Tek Kickboxing who had organised the event. Well done to everyone who took part and well look forward to being invited again next year. 2009-8-30 08:11:11 http://www.whitetigerkickboxing.com/page19.htm#47446 Thank you to everyone who came along to support the first of the new sparring classes. It was a great turn out for an opening class and it was excellent to see a good variation of age groups attend. These classes have something for everyone from beginners drills to the squad team picking up the pace These are open to all members check the restrictions to the younger members and everyone is welcome. The class time has been changed slightly to fit with the general requirement of students and will now be 6.30 7.30pm on Fridays. 2009-8-28 15:15:18 http://www.whitetigerkickboxing.com/page19.htm#47033 Excellent seminar by Jason Dorn on Pressure Point Therapy on Sunday 16th August at Paragon Black Belt Academy in Ilkeston. For me it was a great way to see the opposite side of the Kyusho Pressure Points and those who attended without any prior pressure point knowledge found it just as interesting. We all got the opportunity to put a little into practice and were able to loosen off a few aches and pains that we have collected over the years. The seminar was 3 hours which flew past and really only touched the tip of what there is to learn. Some of you missed out this time so Jay is planning to run the session again soon. Sam 2009-8-17 11:33:08 http://www.whitetigerkickboxing.com/page19.htm#44885 The squad this time were Rob DunkleyRoss Matt Bowen amp Ric Hill. Well done to all three of you you are all getting better and better a few more tournaments under your belt to gain the experience and youll soon be coming home with those trophies. Well done to Rob who took 2nd place in veterans points Ric who just lost out to John from Paragon a very close fight and Matt also was only just behind to a much higher graded opponent. Jason Dorns squad from paragon did extremely well in all their categories and came away with several trophies. 2009-7-13 21:31:28 http://www.whitetigerkickboxing.com/page19.htm#44739 The Squad for the Peterborough Series on 28th June were Alan Williams Neil Marshall Rob DunkleyRoss Matt Bowen and Ric Hill. Well done to Neil and Rob on your first tournament and extra well done to Rob who came home with 3rd place in points. Nice work from Alan Matt and Ric on your second tournament you all put 100 effort in remember this is only the second time you have entered a tournament and you are all much lower grades compared to your competition you are well on the right track and as you build your experience you will be coming home with plenty of trophies. Thanks again to Liam amp Kelly for coming along to support the boys. Congratualtions to Jasons team from Paragon a few more trophies to your collection 2009-7-11 20:35:24 http://www.whitetigerkickboxing.com/page19.htm#41882 Clinch is the part of the fight that links stand up fighting and ground fighting the workshop provided an insight to a better understanding of the clinch which is necessary to keep you on your feet. Many thanks to Jason Dorn PKO Principal for sharing some of his extensive knowledge with us the 3 hours flew past and am sure he could have continued teaching all day and still would only have brushed the surface of this subject. Always a pleasure to train with Jason and his students and we are looking forward to the next workshop. 2009-5-19 18:04:16 http://www.whitetigerkickboxing.com/page19.htm#40991 Well done to everyone for your outstanding efforts.
