Smoking

On the last training, Brian Sir has mentioned that members under him are not supposed to smoke when in uniform or during any training or competitions etc.

We are advised not to smoke as it doesn't help our body and instead cause us harm. It isn't a cool thing to do and it isn't cheap either.

If members were to be caught smoking during trainings, competitions or when in uniform etc, they may have to face the possibility of being banned from the club as we are unable to follow sir's orders.

Yours sincerely,
ChunYou

You did not read it wrong. They did it with the assistance of the trainers and were on the high a feel of the movements. Something inside them told them that they could perform it without help if they had more practice. In fact, one of them believed she could and tried it on a new landing mat without supervision. She almost succeeded....
