A FRESH START
We marked the first frosty week with a session led by Master James Sheedy. It is always a privilege to learn directly from Sensei Jim.
Two and a half hours in 2-degree conditions; strengthening both body and mind, while taking away valuable insights and sharpening our technical understanding.
