    Damn thats a long time,
    but worth every minute I am sure.

    Longest I have ever taken part in was 5 and a half if memory serves.
    then spent 4 days trying to remember how to walk, and that was with Benny " the jet " when I had not long started Karate.

    my classes for kicboxing are 1 - 1/2 hours warm up conditioning tecnique and sparring, seld defence/protection one hour concentrating on one good tecnique per session and its varied applications. womens classes one hour but i always seem to run over mostly because i and the class are enjoying ourselfs so not a bad thing.

    My classes run for two hours and the Defend You courses that we run last anything from 2 hours up to 5 hours, depending on the clients requirements.

    Although my classes run for 2 hours we usually end up chatting for anything up to an hour afterwards, just running over SP/SD related stuff and have a giggle whilst doing so. Very Happy

    Bob, 7 hours sounds like a marathon seminar! affraid

    Take care,

    Garth.

    Weekly sessions are 1.5-2hrs. Seminars are 3-4hrs

    I personally find >4hrs and students start to wither mentally and physically -Also depends on the intensity of the sessions!
