Newly Qualified 1st Aiders for British Wadokai
Blood gushing from the leg, obvious face injury, distressed and shocked... Yes, you guessed it. Lisa crossed the road and walked into oncoming traffic…
But how would you react to this scenario? Can poor old Humpty Dumpty be put back together again?
Many thanks to Gordon Hoare (6th Dan) Renshi and Horsham Wado Karate Club for organising the fantastic 1st Aid Course.
Those present were: Gordon Hoare (6th Dan) Renshi, Gary E Swift (7th Dan) Kyoshi, Paul Elliott (6th Dan) Renshi, Lisa Taylor, Derry Jarvis 1st Dan, Louis Gellatly, Ray Brown 2nd Dan, Daniel Mannion 2nd Dan.
If you want to know more about these types of ‘Action 1st Aid’ courses, then please contact Derry Jarvis 1st Dan. He runs his own company, Impact Training, in partnership with Lisa Taylor, and I can thoroughly recommend the course to any (except for the squeamish!) and all!
