Date: April 12, 2015
Location: Anglesey, Wales
Meeting Point: Summit To Sea, Valley.
Class: Combat Rolling.
Overview: This class is for those with a “pool” or “flat water” roll who want to try using it in a more dynamic setting. We’ll begin by looking at our rolls and cleaning up any inconsistencies. Then we’ll move these rolls into a gentle surf zone and become more comfortable rolling in both surf and with obstacles that are often present in a “combat” situation (such as sand or rocks).
Class 1: 10.00 – 14.00 Sunday April 12
Cost: This class costs £75.
