Day 5 - Test and recap

After every class we had an open mat session were student's could stay and use the Dojo and it's equipment to practice on their own. Student's could also ask Sensei Richard or any of the assisting Senpais for help or assistance but a lot of student's used that time to attempt Sensei Richards bottle challenge!
