Hi all,

As you may have heard of the recent news of Victoria going back into lockdown again, this includes our club activities. This lockdown will last for at least 6 more weeks. We are unsure of when we will restart in-person trainings because of this ):

As such, online sessions will continue as per usual and we will release weekly announcements as before, hope to see you all there! We will send out more information about in-person trainings as soon as we get more.

If you have any questions, concerns or suggestions, feel free to let me or any committee member know!

Some information:

• Department of Health and Human Services
• The Guardian

Thanks,
Samuel

Wednesday – 17 June – Kata discussion

Hi everyone,

Hope you’re doing fine! This coming Wednesday (17 June), the training session will be held as a group discussion about Kata instead of the lecture-type so far.

Please prepare the following points for discussion. Everyone will have to present their opinion:

1. How interested are you in learning Kata and why?
2. What you want to learn from Kata training sessions
3. What you think about how it is currently run (online theory and then once a month as per usual in the Games Hall when we’re back to training)

(The links to join the session will be shared on Saturday/Sunday)

Thanks,
MUKC Committee
