WELCOME TO ALL THE NEW SHINDENKANS

KataFIT – The 2019 course was yet another confirmation of the positive energy and atmosphere that has come to Shindenkan over the summer and the first half of the 2019 / 2020 season. It is as if the positive atmosphere has found an even higher level than on the SST course we had 3 weeks ago.

As one of the 3 course instructors, I was personally VERY happy that all the new people who joined the SST also joined the KataFIT course – yes, plus even more 🙂 there were actually over 35 participants, which amounts to almost 55 % of the new members , which has arrived after the summer holidays in all the local schools.

It is as if Shindenkan has been filled with a new bright energy and after a fantastic course I am happy to share this article with all of you Shindenkan.

We started the course as planned at 09.00 and everyone was ready from the first moment – big and small.

KataFIT is one of the first courses for new members in Shindenkan and therefore also one of the first steps on a fantastic journey in the multi-track martial arts world of Yakami Shinsei-ryu and this Saturday we took the first step on the journey together.

All participants attended and were challenged - and we teachers did that, of course, in our communication, because the course is directly measurable on ourselves as people both before, during and after.

As always, we reached a point where everything came together and it happened when we finally made a KataFIT 1S together! For many of the participants, this was an aha experience that challenged both what we believe about ourselves and the limits we are really good at setting for ourselves and what we think we can achieve for ourselves.

But it succeeded perfectly in true Shindenkan spirit - because one of the values of I Shindenkan is: That "we can do much more than we ourselves and others require of us". The truth of these words was proved once more to my great satisfaction.

It also proved that as long as we dare to reach out and trust in who we are – and what we can do – there are no limits to what we can achieve. When only we dare to fulfill Our full potential to develop. 🙂

The KataFIT course showed, as always, that the way to the deep breath that gives peace and balance right into our soul and if we coordinate our breathing with our movements - this shows the way to all the good within ourselves and all the good we have to offer the world.

After all, every journey in our life starts with the first breath - and I Shindenkan the first step in a fantastic multi-track martial art that is not only expressed through technique - but especially expressed through real thought, word and action.

Yes, we can all feel it - Shindenkan is even more amazing in 2019 than ever before 🙂

I look forward to meeting everyone again at Shindenkan's Xmas Convention 2019.
