To celebrate Sensei’s David, Heather, Lina and Phil organising their Black Belt Dinner (almost one year to the day after their grading…), here a few photos from their big day.

BIG CONGRATULATIONS!

Monday, August 8th, 2011

Sunday 24th July saw 3 of our most hardworking seniors demonstrate their knowledge and skills at our publilc grading.  Sensei Yvette successfully graded to Blue 3, Sensei Jon graded to Brown Belt and Sensei Heather gained her Black Belt.  It takes many years of discipline, very hard work and determination to reach these grades and so we’d like to extend our warmest congratulations to our Sensei’s.

Also on Sunday 24th, we had our VERY FIRST junior Black Belt grading.  Razik demonstrated a huge amount of skill and determination in his first public grading and successfully gained his Junior Black Belt.  We’d like to say how very pleased and proud we all are of Razik and all his achievements! Keep a close eye on our blog as we’ll be featuring Razik in our ‘Black Belt on the Spot’ article coming soon!

Very Special Grading!

Saturday 15th May saw 3 of our Sensei’s undertake their black belt grading. During the grading our Sensei’s are expected to demonstrate all techniques from the very basic ’slide in front punch’ right up through every combination for every grade.

This is a massive undertaking and requires huge levels of fitness and discipline.  Black belt gradings don’t happen very often.

It’s with great pride that we extend our warmest congratulations to our new black belt Sensei’s; Sensei Phil Dench, Sensei Lina Ghunaim and Sensei David Laub.
