Zen-Do Fun Day – The Aftermath!
Posted on 23 May 2010 by Suhail
Phew! It’s been over 24 hours, but I’m still exhausted! We had the much awaited, eagerly anticipated Zen-Do Fun Day yesterday! It started at 11 am and didn’t end until 6 pm!
And boy did we have fun! The day started with a Nunchaku weapons demonstration with Sensei Vinod and some Zen-Do Black Belt Club students. This was followed by games, a dodgeball tournament, more games, a Zen-Do “puppet show”, an anti-bullying workshop, a kickboxing padding demonstration, an amazing choreographed “fight” between me and Sensei Vinod, a massive kickboxing class, a talent competition, and more and more games!
Everyone had such a good time! My kids Selma and Laith were on such a high all day! The feedback from the parents was just amazing. It was such a fun day, true to it’s name really.
My sincere thanks to the Zen-Do Team Vinod, Angela, Leo and Ara for their great efforts. Also, special thanks go to Saba for sorting out all the logistics, and to DBC GM Mark and Falak Admin Manager Gemma for helping out on the day. Great job everyone. My sincere thanks also go out to Zen-Do students and Black Belts Alaa Al-Alawi and Hussain Al-Fardan for their help. And to my brother Faris for his cameo appearance.
Most of my sincerest thanks and appreciation go out to the parents and kids who came on the day and made it so special! Thanks everyone. I can’t wait for the next one!
