The main event to consider once the Jan/Feb gradings are over is the Interclub Tournament on 29th March. This is a tournament run by White lotus for White Lotus students (occasionally we invite other clubs). This is a chance for new students to enjoy a controlled bout to gain experience. There are points and continuous fights as well as a forms category. The earlier you get your entry forms in, the better the chance of finding you the best match possible. There is also an event on in Worcester at Perdiswell Leisure Centre on Saturday 16th May. This is an evening show, open to the public and we have been asked to put forward some fighters - for full and light contact. The instructors have a provisional list, but if you are interested please speak to your instructor. There should also be some other tournaments - but the fight coaches don't seem to be getting it together. If they do, can they please put my name down to fight - many thanks. Michelle |

Friday 31st July and Saturday 1st August - camping somewhere in the Forest of Dean - hopefully Whitemead - with the pool and the bar. Saturday will be crammed full of fun activities - including Go Ape and some outdoor thing organised by Tony - oh dear - defib on stand by. Camping party Saturday p.m. organised by our new chief instructor - will the White lotus Backfist punch make a return?!! - Are you brave enough? Children are welcome as long as they are accompanied by an adult and the following people are welcome, as long as they are accompanied by a responsible person - Deanne (joke) & Tina (not joke). |

As always in January, the classes are quite busy - you might find that your instructor is a bit forgetful with all that they have to remember, so if they do forget something for you, please ask them - they will not bite your head off - unless it is about grading results. Whilst I'm on the subject - there will be a letter out soon that outlines expectations for Brown belts and other grades - such as not asking about grading results. |

All students are welcome to attend any courses and events - you will not be out of place/left behind - new students are very important to the association. |

This needs some explanation - We are now able to offer mixed Martial Arts which includes ground fighting as well as gradings. IT IS NOT COMPULSORY TO DO ANY MIXED MARTIAL ARTS - we will offer parts of it in the normal lessons - but if you don't wish to do it there will be an alternative. In June - there will be a grading to grade to the equivalent grade in Mixed Martial Arts - if you are a White Belt you will be graded to white, if you are a Black Belt you will be graded to Blackbelt. You must know the syllabus though!!!! The syllabus will be available on the website soon. We would like feedback for this before we order the 2nd edition of our syllabus book in July. |

Good luck to those students taking Dan grades in May. For those grading in November - start training now - remember that you need 2 courses and a refs course and you need to get your application form signed by 3 instructors. |

|
Can all parents please explain to their children about finding a partner - any one will do - look around the room - put your hand in the air if you do not have one!! - Simple enough you would think. |

This is now in place for 2nd Dans and will be taught at the Blackbelt and Tai chi classes at Bushley on Wednesdays. |
