Krav Maga classes kick off in Carmarthen


Regular readers of this blog will remember I have mentioned Krav Maga self defence classes before.
Krav Maga self defence seminars have been running across Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire over the past few months.
They have managed to establish a strong interest in Carmarthen and are now setting up regular training classes.
Classes will be held at the Carmarthen Leisure Centre in Johnstown, starting on Thursday 28th July.
Kids Krav (ages 8-15 years old) will run 7.15 – 8.15pm and adult beginners will run 8.15 to 9.30pm.
Krav Maga is an altogether different system of defense which can be taught to anyone, of any age, sex, physical fitness or agility with a fearsome reputation for its powerful effectiveness in personal defense and fitness.
It's savagely simplistic (to coin a phrase) and designed especially to combat a whole range of physical attacks and threats more common in today’s society.
Not only are you equipped with the best system of physical self defence around, you will develop sound emotional responses to conflicts and know how to respond in order to de-escalate a potentially volatile situation.
To top it all, it’s a fantastic physical workout.
Total Self Protection are the only licensed children’s Krav Maga instructors in Wales.
Children are taught in a different method to the adults based primarily through sport and danger awareness – using the power of the voice and eyes as much as any violent response.
Children develop a healthy awareness for potential dangers and are empowered by a whole range of defences designed to combat bullying, intimidation, peer pressure, adolescent fear and adult threats, without over emphasis on violence or fear of the world around them.

Former Gower MP Gareth Wardell the guest speaker at Llanelli Rotary Club

Image
Former Gower MP Gareth Wardell was the guest speaker at the weekly meeting of Llanelli Rotary Club held at the Stradey Park Hotel. Mr Wardell gave an illuminating address, weaving comparisons between his job as a politician and his late father's job as a Tumble barber. It was an amusing, highly-entertaining and thought-provoking address. Mr Wardell, now 69, won the Gower constituency seat in a Parliamentary by-election in 1982. The Labour MP held the seat until his retirement in 1997. He now works as a public affairs consultant in Wales. Mr Wardell's Parliamentary term was largely in opposition to Margaret Thatcher's Conservative Government. But his did make a significant contribution by being the youngest MP to chair the Welsh Affairs Select Committee. Mr Wardell recognised that in the 'fame stakes' he may have played second fiddle to his father, Jack, who was one of the UK's oldest barbers and who cut and styled hair for almost 80 years. Jac

Image
Ammanford-based Lauryn Davey is making a major mark in the world of Welsh athletics. At just 16, she is the best all-round athlete of her age in Wales. She's chalking up Welsh championship victories and has been honoured by her club, the Carmarthen Harriers. Lauryn's been earmarked as a future international star, but knows the road to the big championships is difficult, demanding and expensive. Ammanford businessman and well-known comic entertainer Phil Evans has launched a campaign to get cash backers for Lauryn's athletics career. "Everyone in the area is hugely proud of her achievements in athletics to date," said Phil. "But we also want to see her go on and do bigger and better things. "Together with some friends, I am helping find ways of generating much-needed sponsorship cash for Lauryn. "She has massive potential to succeed on the international stage and I am sure a little bit of financial help will help to smooth her
