Kicking & Punching

Kicking & Punching

This is Alex. I spotted him in Västerhaninge on Friday. It was a very gloomy day, so he stood out a bit with his green beanie, red hair and his colorful shoestrings. Alex is a 9th grader. He lives in Krigslida and come the fall he will be an electrician student at the secondary school Fredrika Bremer-gymnasiet in Handen. His hobbies include playing the guitar (just like the girls from Sarcastic Undertone), and practising Martial Arts. For Alex that means Taekwando, just like Jonny.

Martial Arts Performance

Minami Ryu Jujitsu

Striking and Kicking

Modern Day Samurai

Yesterday it was time for the annual Tungelsta Day. There was a few interesting things to see, and today I will show you some photos from the Martial Arts performance that took place on the soccer field at the Tungelsta school. It was a big hit with the kids. On the first photo you can see two girls from Minami Ryu Jujitsu warming up. Minami Ryu Jujitsu is a local Budo club, and it was members from that club that were performing. The second photo shows the youngest and most impressive member of the club. He was on the mat for most of the time, doing an impressive Kata, and also demonstrating different punches and kicks, before finishing off by easily breaking several boards using his fists and his feet. The biggest cheer of the day came when the teenage girl on the third photo took down Antonio Somma (a Jujitsu coach), during a demonstration of self-defence. I believe the show attracted many of the spectators, and I wouldn't be surprised if the club received a few new members after their performance.
