Karate in Marbella

I got a call yesterday from a young guy in his twenties asking me did we do Karate at Kudo Academies, he was a very polite person so we got drawn into a conversation over Karate and it turned out he had done it about 12 years earlier, when I asked him did he remember anything about the training he replied "no" with a bit of a laugh, so I said why Karate then?? He couldnt really answer me only that he had done it before and from what he could remember he really enjoyed it...vaguelly!!

The conversation reminded me of my first visit to the WJJF Headquaters in Barlows lane when I was 15, Bruce Lee films where all the rage and I fancied myself as a bit of a Jackie Chan, I tried to persuade my cousin who was half chinese to come with me, you know to add a bit of authenticity into my feelings! didnt want the instructors to think we were fakes!! Anyway, my cousin backed out and it was left to me to go in by myself, I remember getting the 154 bus to Northwood and getting of at the Chaser pub and walking to the dojo. I bounced in with all the confidence I could muster and said to the little fella who came out to greet me "alright mate, dya do kung fu here?" No sorry we dont, "ah never mind, truning my back walking towards the door...cya"....."but we do Ju Jitsu"...."Never heard of it mate, is it any good'"..."come down for a free lesson tonight and see for yourself"...Oki doki, cya later!"

Probably the best decision I ever made! I loved everything about Ju Jitsu, and everything about martial arts training full stop! It opened up a totally different world for me as my life at that point seemed to be slipping down the slippery slope to being a bad lad, turns out the little fella was my sensei and I couldnt have asked for a better instructor, the rest is history but my point is that dont assume that something is not for you, give it a try! it could open up a whole new world!

I get people who call me all the time looking for specifics in training but very few really know what they are looking for, its mainly just to get fit, to give there kids more confidence, or mainly to meet more people, give me a call today or check out my page www.kudoacademies.com
