It was really good to catch up this evening even if it was to let you know that I have had to accept that my injury is likely to mean I won’t be able to return to training.
I want you to know how much I have enjoyed being part of this great club for, what I think is, the last 4 years! I have been taking part in sporting activities at all levels (playing some sports at school, county and international level) all my life and have been a member sports clubs but being a member of Krav Maga Taunton has been one of the most rewarding and enjoyable and I am in no doubt that this is entirely due to your expertise and approach.
The range of abilities you work with is very challenging but at no time (even at the age of 63) was I made to feel out of my depth or that, in those early days as a complete novice, that I was holding others back. There are lots of things I know very little about but, having been in education for over 30 years, teaching is not one of them! You have been one of the most skilled teachers/coaches/instructors I have ever worked with.
Training was often physically challenging but I always felt supported and encouraged and along the way made some good friends. Not only have I learnt a wide range of new skills and maintained good levels of fitness but I have learnt a lot about myself and found new levels of confidence.
So for all of that, I want to say a huge ‘thank-you’ its been a real privilege and I hope the club will continue to thrive that our paths may cross again.
All the best
Steve
