All classes move to Zoom

Given the recent Stay At Home announcement all classes will now move to Zoom. A timetable will be published shortly but the first Zoom class will be the adult’s class tonight at 8pm.

Sensei Pete:

“Dust off your tablets, clear the living room space, we are back on Zoom!
There will be an adult class tonight at 8pm. I will then work out a timetable for lockdown, sticking loosely to the current class timetable. You should not need to re-register but do check you have the latest update if you haven’t used it for a few months. If you have not used zoom before, click on the link, register your email and log on tonight about 7.50pm. See you there!
I know for many zoom classes are not ideal but we need to keep our training and technique skills up and stay positive that this is our last full lockdown and then we can get back to the dojo ready to improve further.”

Dorchester and Adult classes cancelled – New Open Mat Session for solo training.

Due to Dorchester and Weymouth moving into tier 3 restrictions all adult group classes have been cancelled until further notice. Also, since the Dorchester Yoga centre is temporarily closing all Dorchester classes are also cancelled.

However, whilst adult group training is not permitted you are allowed to visit the Weymouth gym and train independently. If you wish to train at the gym please book the ‘Open mat session’.

The junior classes (under 18) in Weymouth are still available, including a new Cadet class (14+), so please book.

Covid-19: Virtual training

With the government asking all gyms to close and the rules on social distancing our normal training regime has been turned upside down. However, karate training never stops and so Sensei Pete and the other instructors are working on virtual training resources for all WKA members.

More details to follow!

Coronavirus

Wessex Karate Academy is following all government and Sport England advice for Coronavirus. As such all classes are on as usual unless otherwise notified.

“… given that being fit and healthy acts as a deterrent to most infections, it’s crucial that members of the public continue to lead active lives throughout this period, whether that’s using a local gym or walking or cycling, where it’s possible to do so…”

Sport England – Coronavirus: information for the sector

If the guidance changes we will post updates to this web site and our Facebook page.

The last regular training session of the year is Sun 22nd Dec. Normal classes resume Thursday 2nd Jan.

Fri 27th Dec: For those looking to burn off some excess Christmas calories Sensei Pete is running a post Christmas training session in Weymouth on Friday 27th Dec.

Wessex Karate Academy wishes you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
